ISLAMABAD: Addressing the press,
Pakistan
Cricket Board (PCB) Chairman Shaharyar Khan reprimanded India for politicising the game of cricket.
An MoU (Memorandum of Understanding) signed by PCB with Board of Control for
Cricket in India (BCCI) consisted of six bilateral series to be played between 2015 and 2023; among which four were to be hosted by
Pakistan and the six tours pending a legal agreement will include up to 14 Tests, 30 ODIs and 12 Twenty20s.
The first in
the series was scheduled to happen in the UAE last year but was held up since
the Indian Governm
ent didn’t allow the BCCI to proceed with
the series.
The PCB since, has demanded financial compensation from BCCI and ICC for the losses incurred due to India’s decision to opt out of the bilateral series.
The chairman declared that
Pakistan is set to present its case to the Asian
Cricket Council (ACC) meeting in order to hold India responsible for violating the terms of the MoU.
