BCCI declines ECB s offer to host India-Pakistan matches as neutral hosts - Reports

By Gokul Nair Modified 27 Sep 2022 Follow Us Comment Share The last three India-Pakistan matches have been played at the Dubai International Stadium. The Board for Control of Cricket in India (BCCI) has reiterated that India and Pakistan will only continue to face each other in multi-team events. The response from the cricket board comes after the England Cricket Board (ECB) offered its venues for a potential bilateral series between the two neighboring nations. Over the last decade, the arch-rivals have only played against each other in multi-team tournaments organized by the ICC as well as the Asia Cup. The last bilateral series between the two nations was back in 2012, following which rising political tensions have made it difficult for the tours to be conducted.

In any case, a series against Pakistan is not something that the BCCI will decide but it is the decision of the government. As of now, the stance remains the same. We only play Pakistan at multi-team events." Rohit Sharma's side recently faced Pakistan at the Asia Cup 2022 twice. The two sides are also scheduled to compete in the Super 4s stage of the upcoming 2022 T20 World Cup in Australia.

ECB offered to host a Test series between India and Pakistan

ECB deputy chairman Martin Darlow brought up discussions with the PCB about the two arch-rivals playing a Test series on English soil. A report from the Telegraph earlier today clarified the ECB's motive behind the offer as well as the PCB's response to it. The report read: "The matches would attract big crowds in the UK, which has a large expat south Asian population. The matches attract huge sponsorship revenue and television audiences. PCB is not keen on playing India at a neutral venue but are grateful for the ECB's offer, which shows the growing relationship between the two boards."

Moreover, the Men in Blue's last tour across the border came in 2006. Is the prospect of a Test series between the two nations being contested in a neutral venue a viable idea?
