Pakistan may be out of Asia Cup: Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, and Afghanistan do not agree on a hybrid model
Pakistan may be out of the Asia Cup to be held in September. Pakistan was left with no option but to walk out of the Asia Cup after Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, and Afghanistan refused to hold the event in the hybrid model. Actually, this time the Asia Cup was hosted by Pakistan, but due to security reasons, India refused to go to Pakistan.
After this, the Pakistan Cricket Board presented a plan to conduct 3-4 matches in Pakistan and some other countries in hybrid mode, but Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, and Afghanistan were not ready for this. However, he has agreed to host the Asia Cup to any other Asian country outside Pakistan.
PCB chairman Najam Sethi is in touch with the members of the Cricket Management Committee and government officials. Sethi has been saying that if none of the Asia Cup matches are played in Pakistan, then Pakistan will not play the Asia Cup. It is possible that this event will now be held in Sri Lanka. If Pakistan does not play in this tournament, the broadcasters of the Asia Cup will decide the terms and prices of the telecast again.
