"I can't see Pakistan being part of the Asia Cup now": Sunil Gavaskar

[Rajdeep]

It's fake news
===

Speaking to news agency ANI, BCCI Secretary Devajit Saikia clarified that no such decision has been taken, and the board has not even held discussions regarding any withdrawal from ACC events.

“Since this morning, it has come to our notice that some news reports have stated that the BCCI has decided not to participate in the Asia Cup and the Women’s Emerging Teams Asia Cup,” he stated.
“Such news is devoid of any truth. BCCI has not even discussed or taken any such steps regarding the ensuing ACC events, let alone writing anything to the ACC.”

The reports cited “recent tensions” and quoted a senior BCCI official, who claimed that the Indian team “can’t play in a tournament that is organised by the ACC, whose chief is a Pakistani minister”—referring to Pakistan’s Interior Minister and current PCB Chairman Mohsin Naqvi, who also serves as the ACC President.

The official was also quoted as saying that BCCI had “verbally communicated” its withdrawal from the Women’s Emerging Teams Asia Cup, slated to be held in Sri Lanka next month, and that all future participation in ACC events was on hold pending directions from the Indian government.

Okay looks like SSA vs Jaiswal is on.

So is Saim vs Prasidh Krishna.

Remember, Pakistan couldnt win the Champions trophy bcoz Saim was injured.

Internal media? What do you even mean?

International *, auto corrected to internal lol.

 

[Mesozoic]

Just like your TV channels destroyed all our cities

Your media is laughing stock in the whole world

Let's not run away and hide behind "TV channels". There are hundreds of clips online even of your own TV channels paddling delusional nonsense left right and centre.

Ahh yes international media...where you guys conveniently ignore the "According to Pakistan" , "Pakistan claims" etc and think that they're vindicating your delusional claims.

Tsk tsk..

India is most likely to pull out of the Asia Cup; this was the case even before the war.

 

[Cover Drive Six]

Yes finally Pakistan can dream of winning one.

And then they can probably celebrate another fake victory over India with ceremonies and DJ ISPR songs while the entire world laughs at them.

Tbh, they can't win the tournament even if India pulls out of the Asia Cup. Beating Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, and Afghanistan won't be easy for them.

Case in point the 'the Telegraph' - 'king of the Skies' fiasco topping the ' Baees Pundits' Diamond from the Champions Troply ...
But coming back to main topic - chances of Asia cup happening are next to Zero - forget both nations playing in league or any stages......
- cant wait for the WTC finals and India Vs Eng tests to start - had nuff of the franschise stuff.

Lol. Let's be very clear here BCCI is all about money. They will sell their soul for money and knowing that during next Asia cup emotions will be high because of this recent war and this time every indian will stick to their TV's even those who have no interest in Cricket they will turn on their tv's to watch this clash. Do you really think BCCi wont capitalise on this?
You will get a reality check.
There are two possibilities only.
1. BCCI will make some excuse and will decide to play. They will say we will only play knockouts like World Cup.
2. They will postpone it to next year and will be played after World t20.

Option 3 - The Bcci may conduct the Asia cup without you know who
Option 4 - The whole Asia cup is cancelled.

I've marked your words.

The authorities in India really are good at lying to their public and building narratives. Unfortunately, the public laps up whatever they say like monkeys.

Pot calling the kettle black. The biggest monkeys are the Pak awaam who are hoodwinked by the Pak establishment with all their false narratives.

 

[deltexas]

Mark my words the Asia Cup is definitely happening, and India will be part of it, whether it’s in Dubai, South Africa, or even Timbuktu.

India is a begairat countey who has no self-respect when money's involved. As soon as the broadcasters and big bucks come into play, they’ll come up with some excuse like, “Oh, we have to play Pakistan because of XYZ.”

That way, the Indian public is happy, that we initially rejected asia cup and will do some chest thumping. broadcasters/bbci make their money, and the India vs Pakistan match gets all the hype. win win for every indian and pahalgam victims can RIP too

We seen it in champions trophy 25

A lot of mark my words happened here with 30 page threads saying Ind will tour Pak for the CT
Time for another similar 30 page thread on the Asia cupnas well.

Initially India opted out of CT25
Then they wanted to shift to India or SA
Then they said they won't play pak in CT25
Then they said hell with 26/11 victims we will play them in UAE to keep the broadcasters happy

That says it all

Yeah if you were living under a rock for the past few years, can’t do much about it can we? Pakistanis have been criticizing their own army left, right and centre on every platform imaginable.

While you lot literally worship an illiterate mad man.

Then again, that’s one of your primary traits, being ignorant is a super power for every single person in your country.

You mean British Pakistani's aka IK fanboys on cricket platforms?

No just about everyone. Qaidi 804 chants in stadium. We are pretty aware with what is going on and the reality of things. The poster is right.

Initially India opted out of CT25

BCCI never said they were going to opt out of CT25. BCCI clearly stated they would play only at a neutral venue; otherwise, they would opt out. Eventually, we got what we wanted and played at a neutral venue.

Then they wanted to shift to India or SA

As per trustmebro.com

Then they said they won't play pak in CT25

This is what we stood firm on and played according to our initial stance.

Then they said hell with 26/11 victims we will play them in UAE to keep the broadcasters happy

That says it all

Who made that statement, you or the BCCI?

It was the PCB and your boss, Naqvi, who made chest-thumping statements like, 'We don't sell out for money, CT will be held in Pakistan only, if CT pulled out of Pakistan we will boycott the tournament. If India doesn’t come, that’s their problem but under no circumstances will it be hosted outside Pakistan,' blah..blah. In the end he ended up like a clown.

I think Naqvis main take away was that whatever will happen will be mutual. If India gets to play in UAE, when India will host Pak should play in UAE. Lets see if that happens.
