Pakistan has confirmed that it will visit India for the ICC Cricket World Cup: The ICC World Cup 2023 will be held in India, and the Pakistani cricket team has been given the all-clear by the Foreign Ministry. Pakistan feels that its obligations to carry out its international sporting obligations should not be hindered by the state of its bilateral relations with India. On October 6 in Hyderabad, Babar Azam’s team will face the Netherlands to open the tournament.
The Pakistani government has stated that it opposes combining sports and politics. He has permitted his team to compete in the World Cup after taking these factors into account. After 2016, a Pakistani team will visit India for any tournament.
What did Pakistan’s foreign ministry say?
“Pakistan’s decision shows its constructive and responsible approach as against India’s obstinate attitude, as India refused to send its cricket team to Pakistan for the Asia Cup.”
