Politics Over Sport: Nazam Sethi Slams Asian Cricket Council For Hosting Asia Cup In Sri Lanka

By IANS News September 03, 2023 • 16:20 PM View: 760

The Asian Cricket Council: The Asian Cricket Council (ACC) faced heavy criticism for scheduling the Asia Cup in Sri Lanka as a former chairman of the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) Management Committee Najam Sethi voiced his regret after the eagerly anticipated match between Pakistan and India in the 2023 Asia Cup was called off at the Pallekele International Stadium in Kandy, due to rain.

Only one innings was possible in the third match tournament on Saturday after India were bowled out for 266 in 48.5 overs and rain prevented the Pakistan team from starting their chase.
