Najam Sethi news

Najam Sethi, on the other hand, had urged the ACC to host the India-Pakistan match in the UAE, citing that similar weather conditions had prevailed during previous tournaments and IPL seasons in Dubai.

India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Afghanistan, and Nepal will compete in 13 exciting ODI matches from August 31 to September 17, 2023.

The ACC, led by BCCI secretary Jay Shah, is yet to respond to the PCB about the proposed hybrid model.

To resolve this issue, Sethi has proposed a "hybrid model" to host the Asia Cup, where India will play its matches at an offshore venue.

Sethi revealed in an interview with a YouTube channel that the selectors eventually decided to retain Babar as the captain.

Sethi clarified that the agreements would be reviewed as they took place before he was installed as PCB chief.

Over the past few months, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has threatened to boycott the 2023 Cricket World Cup, which is scheduled to take place in India.

Ramiz Raja said that if India chooses to opt out of the Asia Cup which will be held in Pakistan next year, Pakistan will also not travel to India to participate in the 2023 50-over World Cup.

In March, a Men's Under-16 Regional tournament will be held. The tournament will feature eight teams, region-wise.

Sethi also confirmed that the PCB had approached Micky Arthur for a coaching assignment, but nothing has been finalised as of yet.

Reports of Raja's replacement as the PCB chairman circulated a few times, however, he rejected the claims and said that he is not going anywhere.
