Where will Asia Cup 2023 be played?

By posting "lols" and "ain't" doesn't mean you are making your point, or how you claim you are the "only one posting sensibly here" LOL

Teams are visiting Pakistan and many more series are planned in the near future so isolation strategy has failed miserable it seems :). I mean you got a jam packed MCG coming up with eager Indians making up the most of 90,000 tickets wanting to watch the game against their beloved Pakistan, so much for the isolation and jawaan ka khoon pehlai :))

So?
BCCI will play all the ICC tournaments.
It will not visit pak or play bilateral with pak.
Learn to stick to the topic.

Asia Cup is not gonna happen in PAK.
WC 2023 will be hosted by INDIA.

PC cant do jack about it.

Rest of what you say doesn't matter and are not relevant.
 
Pakistan shall not host Asia cup without India. As a victory in Asia cup without India will be good for nothing.
UAE is best venue. Pak can also settle scores with Sri lanka & win Asia cup next year. In any case 2918 Asya cup & 2022 Asua cup took place in UAE. It was our home for 10 yeara. Let it be.
Pak shall visit india next year for world cup & win it. It will be their biggest ODI tournament win in India after Nehru cup 1989.

Victory at all costs. Pak shall play in India & beat india in India.
 
Decided by whom? The ACC? The board never convened or sought opinions of other members.

This is why extremist paindus like Jay Shah, who have zero qualifications should be kept away from cricket.

BCCI, regardless of how rich and powerful it becomes, will always be run like a typical desi organizations that have to bow down to the egos of the powers that be. This guy is a tool of the highest order and occupies the most powerful seat on the board because of his dad :)))

Anyhow, Pak should just pull out of the Asia Cup. No point in playing and zero consequences of pulling out.

One thing I would agree with my Pakistani friends though that either we play all games with Pakistan or don't play at all. This middle ground of playing only in ICC events and boycotting bilateral ties kind of make us look like hypocrite. On top of that when media houses like Star Sports hype this game as 'Greatest Rivalry' etc makes it more cringe.

I come from a generation where I have grown up watching Ind-Pak games and love this rivalry. But young generation of today have got no such affinity. If BCCI don't want to play Pakistan in bilateral ties, they must stop playing in multinational events. At least it can request ICC to put in separate groups and will only play if required in knock outs. I am sure ICC won't deny such request and that too from BCCI.

What I am not a fan of is Star Sports hyping this game, news channels doing aman ki asha type shows, players giving jhappiya (hugs) etc. before an ICC game but come bilateral ties BCCI puts the onus on Indian govt. No need to sail on two boats.

This is my humble opinion.
 
Have the other ACC officials said that? Talks can be had without meeting one to one.

no, you cannot make statements without a meeting with the relevent people.

Every journalist is saying this that how can he make such a statement when he is speaking to bcci and not acc

Smaller business cannot dictate Biggest business, Indian Cricket is a brand and you guys don’t have enough money to buy.
India has the money and they can dictate all cricketing countries, Pakistan is just a number. You guys must calm down and obey orders from big bro:ravi
 
Completely missed my point. Not surprised though.

Anyways...It doesn't matter what chahal or some random lalloo on social media says. The fact is that India stopped playing bilateral cricket with Pakistan after the Mumbai attacks and not because soldiers died on the border. Thousands of men have been dying along both sides of the LOC since 1948, wars were fought, countries were cut in half and surrenders were signed but cricket never stopped like it did for the last one and a half decade.

Stop lying again. India did play a bilateral series against Pakistan. Remember that 'Aane Do' series? When did that happen? Before Mumbai attacks? Even today if PCB says they are ready to tour India, hypocrites at BCCI will gladly welcome them because they are going to make money but when it is Pakistan's turn to host India we give these stupid excuses. I don't expect an andhbhakt like you to understand these things though. :inti

Which journalist? Is Jay Shah going to look different whem he is speaking as ACC head?
 
I said it before, i am saying it now,

It is for the PCB to convince other boards and ICC and ACC to go ahead with their tournaments without India.

Indian team is not going to Pakistan.
 
Oh dear!!!

Okay go on and educate me, DeadlyVenom.

Why did India stop playing bilateral cricket with Pakistan in 2008?


*All ears*
Why did India play a bilateral series against Pakistan in 2012?

What will you call that? BCCI's hypocrisy or greed? :91: :inti
 
Can't believe how some people are feeling proud of BCCI using its power and money and dictating terms here just like a villain in a movie. These same people start crying when someone above them bullies them like this especially when it is a political figure. :facepalm :inti
 
If it is going to be hosted in UAE again then India shouldn't take part in it and let Pakistan host it in Pakistan with other teams. It's better to not play then giving these silly 'toss' excuses after losing matches in UAE again. :inti
 
Were you in coma when the then government was criticised for letting that series happen. They were criticized in the parliament, in press everywhere. Then they lost power.

Who criticised them?

The same public and media who have a field day during indo-pak games?

The same one who make adverts and shows to cash in on it?

We have heard everything here - from terrorism, to blood of jawaans, to blaming Pakistan, to not wanting to benefit Pakistan (lol) and now public backlash.

In this thread you have said 2 points against Pakistan in a WC is a foreign policy goal and a game against Pakistan is an event that can bring down a government in a country of 1 billion.

Curiously the government is safe during ICC events :))

:asif
 
The BCCI has made the move because of BJP. Indian players, ex players etc are at good terms with their Pakistani counterparts. Both boards have a good revenue stream and both side players respect each other.

PCB have multiple options and need to strategise on how to get max revenue out of this Asia Cup. Host PSL well, host other teams well and build up their brand. A big tournament will eventually happen.
 
Can someone refresh my memory why Asia cup 2018 moved to the UAE?

Lol what an excuse. They were criticised in parliament blah blah blah. Who forced people to come to stadium and watch those matches? The then government? :))) :inti

I am sticking to topic, why have Indians bought majority of 90,000 tickets against their beloved Pakistan for MCG game? Why will your nation come to stand still come Sunday when your goverment doesn't want anything to do with Pakistan in terms of cricket? The same government will be glued to the screens as well :)

Funny how you disregard other valid points and comfort yourself as to winning the argument. You cant cheery pick your stance, it actually shows how toothless your government is. Bjp knows they could potentially lose elections if they allowed bi-lateral cricket ties with Pakistan, what a joke for a big nation
 
Btw, Ramiz will be under pressure from Sharifs to bow down to Indians. A firm stand can cost him his seat !
 
Lol what an excuse. They were criticised in parliament blah blah blah. Who forced people to come to stadium and watch those matches? The then government? :))) :inti

Sold out series with Indian telecast sold for millions. This is some next level "criticism"
 
There will definitely be pressure by broadcasters on Asian Cricket Council. When the member boards see how much loss in revenue there will be for all of them, they will automatically move to a neutral venue. Doubt any of the boards would support going through with the event without India, maybe with the exception of PCB if they have balls.

Broadcasting rights for ACC events was taking into account that India would play them.

Here comes the pretender with yet another useless argument.

Pakistan and India were supposed to play 4 bilateral series between 2008 and 2012. Care to tell me why they weren't played? The 2012 series was just a failed attempt by the then ruling govt to reinstate cricketing ties. The actual bilateral boycott started in 2008 and that is also when Pakistani players were blocked from the IPL. Read a bit before embarrassing yourself as usual.

Irrelevant point. Read above post.

Anyways, BCCI has no say in this matter. They're not the ones who are making these decisions. It goes way above. And the "way above" was a different entity in 2012 and it got slapped deservingly.

The reason no series has been played is because there is an extremist hindutva govt in power in India. It's not complicated.
 
What other countries do is not BCCI's concern.
BCCI will not tour PAK.
BCCI will not allow ASIA CUP to happen in PAK.

These are the only facts relevant to this thread.

Those are the facts we are discussing. You understand this right?

Ignorant and untrue.

It was the non-extremist "secular" UPA government , that stopped the bilateral series'. They pondered for a U-Turn briefly in 2012 but that ended up biting them in their behinds.
 
Can someone refresh my memory why Asia cup 2018 moved to the UAE?

It was moved because Indian government was unable to accommodate the Pakistani players. The under 19 Asia cup was also moved because India refused to give visas to Pakistani kids.

As per the minutes of a meeting of the Committee of Administrators (CoA) on November 21, "it's not clear whether the government of India will allow the Pakistan team to travel to India for the tournament. If not, then the BCCI needs to inform the Asian Cricket Council (ACC) of the same so that an alternate host country can be finalised."

If we didn't get the permission to host the Pakistan's Under-19 team from the Centre, it looks highly unlikely that we'll get to do so in case of their senior team. The Pakistan athletes were given visas to take part in the Asian Athletics Championships, but the government says that cricket's case is a bit different, since it has an emotional connect with people from both the countries. When we approached the government with a request, we didn't get any response from them, but we need to decide fast since we need to inform the ACC soon. There are logistical, amongst many issues involved with hosting a tournament and a country needs time to sort them out," a Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) official told TOI on Thursday.

https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com...t-india-the-asia-cup/articleshow/61974269.cms

Furthermore, the decision was made multilaterally with all ACC board members.

Here, Pakistan is willing and able. Has not been consulted by India and other members have not been considered.

Hope memory is refreshed.
 
So you don't want to play in Pakistan and want tournaments to be moved to places per your likings, but Pakistan can't demand the same when it comes to India? What hypocrites. Now go gaga over how bcci got the money (not a surprise for a 1.5 billion of the world population cramped in one country). You solely make money because of "other countries" or else your trundlers wouldn't get much attention in your domestic tournaments.

Other teams are touring so don't think it will fly by this time. All your drama of 'jawaan ka khuun' and 'Pakistan dushman' nationalism of India goes out of the window when you play odd games against Pakistan. MCG will be filled with such passionate Indians who ll be weeping while national anthem is getting played at a large stadium but this drama and fake emotions sway like a burger patty on a pan from series to games. Got guts then demand your team to stop playing Pakistan everywhere. Is this the cheap worth of your jawaans blood at the border that you give in for mere little random cricket games against Pakistan?

Security in Pakistan was a genuine concern back then

India hosted 2018 Asia Cup.
 
Ignorant and untrue.

It's absolutely true. Let us assume the Indian version of events is true, no country holds a grudge indefinitely over something that happened in history, otherwise you would never be playing against England as we still hold your diamond in our crown and refused to return it.

That the secular govt was willing to review the situation in 2012 just shows that this is absolutely driven by Hindutva party of BJP. It's not like your govt is denying it either, I don't know why you aren't willing to back them. They stand firmly behind their hindutva politics, that's more than we can say for you.
 
Expected from small hearted India.

In typical fashion, they have shifted complete tournament out of Pakistan instead of just opting out. We have three options now.

1. Do not play at neutral venue and if it means an Asia cup without us then so be it.

2. Play in UAE, but only after announcing that Pakistan will not be visiting India when Asia Cup takes place there unless India plays in Pakistan.

3. Just play at neutral venue.

Opting for 3 will be total beghairti. I am fine with any of first two options.

Pakistan, despite our bigger hearts, should never forget India's antics. Scores must be settled with interest once shoe is on the other foot.

The 2018 Asia cup had india as hosts but shifted to UAE. Same with this years Asia cup. Why so much hue and cry if it happens next year too. I like this idea of UAE as the permanent venue where the home advantage is ruled out.
 
Irrelevant point. Read above post.

Anyways, BCCI has no say in this matter. They're not the ones who are making these decisions. It goes way above. And the "way above" was a different entity in 2012 and it got slapped deservingly.

Obviously it is an irrelevant point for you and other hypocrites. You have no answer to justify it. :inti
 
No need to lash out, we already know beforehand that India won't play in Pakistan because there is a hardcore hindutva party in power in that country. You don't need to be a rocket scientist to see this was always going to be the outcome. The ruling party in India considers Pakistan an unimplacable enemy.

And what does the islamic army of pakistan think about India? I am not saying ruling party of Pakistan as we all know who rules Pakistan.

Anyways thats beside the point. India sold mosquito nets to Pakistan earlier this week. When both countries can do trade with each other why not cricket? As an Indian I find this silly. Has not playing bilateral cricket since 2013 stopped pak from doing a Uri or Pulwama? It would make sense if BCCI uses its clout and bans Pakistan from cricket like SA was banned for aparthied. This not playing pakistan in bilaterals is mere eye-wash.
 
The Indian and Pakistan cricket boards put themselves on a collision course on Tuesday after BCCI secretary Jay Shah said the 2023 Asia Cup will be played at a neutral venue, prompting the neighbours to threaten a boycott of next year's ODI World Cup. The hosting rights of the 2023 edition of the 50-over Asia Cup has been awarded to Pakistan by the Asian Cricket Council (ACC) as a pre-cursor to the marquee World Cup in India. Incidentally, Shah is the president of the Asian Cricket Council.

The matter of India playing the Asia Cup in Pakistan was stated in the notes circulated to the BCCI members before Tuesday's Annual General Meeting (AGM) in Mumbai.

"We have decided to play at a neutral venue," Shah was quoted as saying by multiple cricket websites after the conclusion of the AGM.

One of the reasons cited for not playing in Pakistan was that there has been precedence in the past of the continental event being shifted at a neutral venue.

India hasn't travelled to Pakistan since the 2008 Asia Cup, and after the Mumbai terrorist attack on November 26 that year, the scheduled bilateral series in early 2009 was cancelled.

The other reason cited was the Sri Lankan team bus being attacked by terrorists in Lahore, after which no international team visited the country for more than a decade due to security reasons.

Pakistan did travel to India for a short six-match white-ball series in 2012, but in the last 10 years, there hasn't been any bilateral cricket. The two teams have only played each other at various ICC and ACC events.

The PCB is irked as international cricket has resumed in the country with all top nations like England, Australia, West Indies travelling there to play Tests and white-ball rubbers.

Sources close to PCB chairman Ramiz Raja indicated that one of the options that they are mulling after Shah's statement is to pull out of the 50-over ICC World Cup in India.

"The PCB is now prepared to take hard decisions and play hard ball because it is also aware that the ICC and ACC events will have to face commercial liabilities and losses if Pakistan does not play India in these multi-team events," a senior PCB source told PTI on the condition of anonymity.

Pakistan last came to India for a short six-match white-ball bilateral series in 2012.

The PCB, when contacted, declined to give an official reaction to Shah's statement.

"We have nothing to say at the moment, but yes, we will look at things and take up this matter at appropriate forums like the ICC board meeting in Melbourne next month," a spokesperson said.

However, it has been learnt that the PCB chairman and other senior officials were very upset about the announcement by Shah.

"The PCB officials are surprised at the timing of Jay Shah's statement because there is still nearly a year to go before the Asia Cup is held in Pakistan in September 2023," an insider said.

He said the PCB was aware that the issue of India travelling to Pakistan for the Asia Cup was on the agenda at the BCCI AGM but didn't expect any announcement on this issue at this time.

"The PCB is wondering in what capacity has Jay Shah given the statement that the ACC will look to relocate the Asia Cup to UAE out of Pakistan, because the hosting rights were awarded by the executive board of the ACC, not the president," the PCB source said.

PCB could pull out of ACC membership

The PCB sources said that Raja would be sending a strongly-worded letter to the ACC on the matter and would be demanding an emergency meeting of the ACC board to be convened in Melbourne next month to discuss Shah's statement.

The insider also disclosed that the PCB had decided to look at several options and would not accept any disruption to its hosting rights.

"One option under consideration will be to pull out of the ACC as the PCB believes the ACC was formed to promote and develop cricket in the region and forge unity among the member nations.

"But if the president of the ACC is going to give statements like these, there is no use for Pakistan to remain in the body," he added.

Tbh Asia Cup is a trash tourney having no context its like a MickyMouse trophy as far as neutral venue is concerned why not have a 3 game Indo-Pak series instead of it at a neutral venue like Cayman Islands or Guatemala it will also help in expansion of sport
 
Host it sl, ban, sa, eng or wherever but not the UAE please.

Dew factor is the same anywhere in Asia. Best thing is to make it Eurasia cup and Add Eng, Scotland n netherlands and host it in england. I remember a Australasia Cup in the 90s.
 
BCCI has decided the venue?

Surely it will be a joint decision by the Boards, rather than one Board dictating to all.
 
I am sticking to topic, why have Indians bought majority of 90,000 tickets against their beloved Pakistan for MCG game? Why will your nation come to stand still come Sunday when your goverment doesn't want anything to do with Pakistan in terms of cricket? The same government will be glued to the screens as well :)

Funny how you disregard other valid points and comfort yourself as to winning the argument. You cant cheery pick your stance, it actually shows how toothless your government is.

Because India is playing.They are going to support their country.
 
You are sounding like Saif Ali Khan now. The only thing missing is his dialogue 'ghar mein ghuske maarenge'. Who are you trying to fool here? What happens in tournaments like WC and Asia Cup? Why don't we boycott Pakistan in those tournaments? You can never justify this hypocrisy of selectively playing against Pakistan. Never. :inti

I guess it's the venue that's the problem.

They will simply not send a team to Pakistan.
 
Btw let me remind everyone that 1990 Asia cup was held in India. Pakistan boycotted it in the name of supporting Kashmiris.
 
Then why do we allow them to play Pakistan in multination events? We know that India is scheduled to play Pakistan in those tournaments every time and Pakistan makes a lot of money from those.

It is a security issue. Nothing else.


What?

Revenue from Indo-Pak matches in tournaments go to ICC/ACC, a portion of which gets distributed among all the members. Won't even equate to 1% of what they would get by hosting India for a full month and half long bilateral series.
 
Then why do we allow them to play Pakistan in multination events? We know that India is scheduled to play Pakistan in those tournaments every time and Pakistan makes a lot of money from those.

Did you go through the sale of the ICC rights recently? Did India Pakistan matches go under a separate tender? Or was it a composite ITT with all matches?

Pakistan gets money from ICC's revenue share. Not directly from India. Ofcourse majority of ICCs money comes from India.

If India doesn't play pakistan and gifts 2 points is it beneficial to Pakistan or is it hurting them? The aim of the boycott is not to benefit the pakistan team.
 
Pakistan should thrash Indian team on the 23rd of october and then Pull out of Asia cup 2023.

Let India pay with Afghanistan, Hong kong etc.

Ridiculous jingoism from the bcci.
 
So PCB has threatened to pull out of the ACC and boycott the next WC.

Are they going to boycott 3 more ICC events in India as well?

What jingoism? Indian team wont travel to Pakistan.
 
This is fantastic news!

It works in Pakistan's favour all round.

India can no longer use the 'threat' and 'safety' excuse given other nations are now touring Pakistan.

Come Asia Cup 23, and CT 25, the world will know, that the Hindutva government is indeed fascist and racist, and the only excuse not to play in Pakistan boils down to exposing what most already know - the humiliation of India losing on Pakistan soil.

This will be another tick in the box of India lies, the first one being, no one in India cares about Pakistan vs. India match. LOL, 152/0 proved otherwise. The second one being, no one in India cares about the Asia Cup! :)))

Keep 'em coming.

Brilliant!

What you said has nothing to do with my post. Don't know why you felt the need to quote me.
 
Another dumb post by another of the many emotional individuals who... as I said earlier.. havent still quite figured out (or pretending not to) why India won't play bilateral cricket with them but play them in third party (ICC/ACC) tournaments..

.

Ohh really?

Why don't you enlighten us with your brilliant insight?

This is the reason you provided as the rationale behind India not playing a series with Pakistan.

It's a matter of total lack of accountability to loss of hundreds of human lives.

India won't play a series with Pakistan and let them make billions of ₹ until the nuthobs responsible for 26/11 are 6 feet under the ground. .

Now, supposedly the "nuthobs" responsible for 26/11 are NOT 6 feet under the ground. And the roam free in the streets of Pakistan.
And Pakistan makes quite a bit money when shamless BCCI/India govt, and you lot, not only decide/approve to play with Pakistan in ICC events but also relish watching the games THUS contributing in the money made by Pakistan.


Are you saying there is now another reason why India doesn't play a series with Pakistan? Let's hear that one too.
 
If India doesn't travel to Pakistan, Asia Cup won't happen in Pakistan.

If Pakistan doesn't travel to India for the WC 2023, NOTHING WILL HAPPEN.

The ICC matches and their broadcast and sponsorship rights are sold altogether. There are no separate deals for any Indo-Pak matches. And the money goes to ICC and is distributed among all members including India.

If rights of Indo-Pak matches were sold separately and pakistan took all the money then you would have a point.
 
If India doesn't travel to Pakistan, Asia Cup won't happen in Pakistan.

If Pakistan doesn't travel to India for the WC 2023, NOTHING WILL HAPPEN.

Actually Asia cup shouldn't be shifted from pakistan because of one country. But no one will pay much money for a Asia cup minus India.Thats why it would be shifted.

Similarly, WC should not be shifted from India. And ICC wouldn't make much losses if pakistan doesn't play as majority of the revenues come from India Australia England.
 
Good news.
It's not about politics...safety is main concern...life is more important than playing cricket.

PCB Chairman Ramiz Raja Said

Ridiculous jingoism from the bcci.

Just few months back Pakistan refuse to send team for Chess Olympiad in India..
So it's totally fair on BCCI's decision to not send indian team for the 2023 Asia Cup in Pakistan..
If Pakistan threatened to boycott 2023 ODI world Cup then please do... Nobody cares...

President of the Asian Cricket Council and BCCI secretary Jay Shah has decided :qdkcheeky

The Asia Cup 2023 will be held at a neutral venue" - Jay Shah
 
Hopefully this Fires Up our Pak Players to perform their Best against INDIA on Oct23rd.. and beat them by 10 Wickets Again :D , and india again fails to qualify ..

Just a wish that hopefully comes true..
 
How do you know nothing will happen?

Financial aspect. Absence of PAK wont matter much to broadcasters. One match between INDIA and PAK isnt bigger than the whole tournament that has India as one of the participants. Its the presence of INDIA in any ICC tournament that matters to broadcasters. Remember, how BCCI had its way over ICC in 2003 on endorsment issue as they had threatened to boycott the World Cup. One needs to be a dumb of top class to still think that BCCI will bow down as its not run by COA anymore.
Now the old stalwarts are back and they will dictate the terms. Also broadcasters chase INDIAN team globally as it brings a lot of revenue to them. So both these things makes it impossible for any other board to win against BCCI.
