Regarding Pakistan’s probable difficulties travelling India for the 2023 World Cup, Anurag Thakur states, “I expect all countries to come and compete.
Anurag Thakur, India’s minister of sports, stated on Thursday that the decision about the men’s team travelling to Pakistan for the 2023 Asia Cup will be made by the nation’s home ministry. In addition, Thakur stated that he “expects” Pakistan to play in India during the 2023 ODI World Cup.
Anurag Thakur, India’s minister of sports, stated on Thursday that the home ministry will decide whether or not to allow the men’s team to travel to Pakistan for the 2023 Asia Cup. Additionally, Thakur stated that he “expects” Pakistan to play in the 2023 ODI World Cup in India.
His remarks follow those of Jay Shah, the BCCI secretary and president of the Asian Cricket Council (ACC), who stated that the Asia Cup would have to be staged someplace other than Pakistan the next year since India “can’t go there.” Shah’s remarks were made “unilaterally,” according to a statement released by the PCB in response, and they highlighted the possibility of a “effect” on Pakistan’s ability to compete in the 2023 World Cup.
All qualified teams are invited to the World Cup in India “When questioned about the circumstances around Shah’s statement, Thakur briefed a small group of journalists. “Teams from Pakistan have frequently travelled to India to compete. I believe that no one should dictate to India, and there is no justification for doing so. I anticipate that all nations will participate.”
When questioned about India visiting Pakistan for the Asia Cup, he responded, “The home ministry will make the choice in this case. Overall, the security and safety of the participants is a crucial issue.
Thakur dodged the topic when it was brought up that recent tours of Pakistan by foreign teams had begun.
Amit Shah, India’s minister of home affairs, is Jay Shah’s father.
