Not just this element, but also the undeniable fact that stadiums are low quality in Pakistan. Every country has that one stadium that stands out, either by design or capacity. We have nothing, and frankly, renovating the Multan Stadium is only going to help with test matches by having another place to play at.
Secondly, you're going to need more tours from SENA countries, just to solidify the fact that it is actually safe for players. PSL should become longer with more teams to justify the fact that we can keep teams secure for long periods of time.
Furthermore, there is a lot of stuff that we aren't considering, like the fact that attracting fans from other parts of the world to support their own teams in Pakistan means that our tourism will have to improve tremendously. We boast about the beauty of Northern Pakistan, but there aren't enough tourist programs to those parts.
BCCI can't stand it when Pakistan is making money from ICC affiliated events, much less Asia Cup related events. They will never send the Indian team over to Pakistan even if Pakistan gets hosting rights, so the only way to challenge their authority is by improving as a team, and becoming one of the Big 3. If one of India, Australia, or England spirals into poor performances and the quality of cricket goes down, we'll have a good opportunity to have a better voice in cricketing affairs.
Frankly, I don't really care about Pakistan playing India, it's meaningless to me. Never quite enjoyed it when it did happen either, so wouldn't be much of a loss. You look at how we have brought cricket back to our country, which has been a remarkable journey with many ups and downs. The happiness and cricketing craze is starting to make a resurgence in Pakistan, and people are really starting to get passionate about the team and PSL in particular. I'd take that over any bilateral series with India. If we meet in ICC events, that's fine, but otherwise, I think that Pakistan Cricket is in a situation where we can live without India.
