 Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) chairman Ramiz Raja warned that the Men in Green won t travel to India for the 50-over World Cup if they withdraw from the Asia Cup, scheduled to be held in Pakistan in 2023.

Raja makes first public reaction to Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) secretary Jay Shah’s statement that the Team Blue won t be travelling to Pakistan for the continental tournament.

Giving an explosive statement, Ramiz Raja said: “If Pakistan doesn t participate in the World Cup scheduled to be held in India next year, who will watch it?”

He categorically stated that Pakistan team will only travel to India if they come to play the Asia Cup next year. “If they don t come then they can play the World Cup without us,” Raja told media.

Saying Pakistan will adopt an aggressive approach, he said that the Team Green has showed performance in the recent tournaments. He highlighted that Pakistan cricket team defeated a billion-dollar economy team twice in a year.

India has secured the hosting rights for the next 50-over World Cup and it is unlikely that it will be relocated from India.
