Karachi: Pakistan will seek security guarantee from the ICC for the World Cup, while the team has got permission from the government to tour India.
The Government of Pakistan has given permission to the cricket team for the World Cup to go to India, with which the clouds of uncertainty that have been prevailing for several months have been removed, although many issues still need to be resolved.
In a statement issued by the Ministry of External Affairs, it was said that Pakistan has always maintained that sports and politics are separate, Pakistan-India relations should not come in the way of international sports.
This decision of Pakistan is a reflection of the fact that it has a constructive and responsible thinking, whereas India has the opposite attitude and has refused to send its cricket team to Pakistan for the Asia Cup.
Although this announcement is a guarantee that the Pakistan team will travel to India for the World Cup, however according to 'Kirk Info', Pakistan has not yet decided whether to play the group stage match with India in Ahmedabad. But whether they will agree or not or they will demand to transfer the competition to some other city, however, the desire to change the venue was not expressed in the announcement.
Pakistan also expressed reservations over the security arrangements made for the green shirts in the World Cup. It was clarified in this that Pakistan has strong reservations regarding the security of its cricketers, we will convey these reservations to the ICC and Indian authorities, we hope that the security of the Pakistan team will be ensured during the tour of India. Will As per the report, PCB will approach ICC to seek security guarantee.
Meanwhile, there have been a lot of delays and changes in the schedule of the World Cup, Pakistan and India's match is likely to be held a day earlier i.e. 14 October due to the events of Nouratri, along with Pakistan's match against Sri Lanka on 12 October 10 October It has been decided to relocate so that the Green Shirts get a full chance to prepare for the match against the Indian team.
The PCB also agreed to these changes, however, then a request was made by the Cricket Association of Bengal to organize Pakistan's match against England on 11 November instead of 12, as this date conflicts with the Hindu festival of Kali Puja.
The PCB has privately expressed frustration about the proposed change in the date of the match with England, as the frequent schedule changes affect Pakistan, and the PCB and the BCCI have not yet been direct in this regard. There was no contact and it is also not clear when this decision will be conveyed to Pakistan.
The World Cup will start on October 5, 2019 with a match between the finalist teams England and New Zealand, while it will end on October 19 in Ahmedabad on the scheduled final, however, it is not yet clear when the tickets for this tournament will be sold. Keys will be presented.
