After continues attacks on India and a recent one in Gurdaspur, India had decided not to play a series with Pakistan.
Shahryar Khan, PCB chairman speaking to media at Lahore said that Cricket and Politics are two different things which should not be mixed. However, he decided to reach India and in a hope of expecting to play the series in UAE.
Chairman said, "There is a real danger at this time to the series. But I plan to go to India to get a clear answer on the prospects of the matches being held in December,"
He pointed out that both the nations have signed Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to play six bilateral series in the time span of 2015 to 2022. "I want to have frank discussions with the relevant officials in India because we can't delay preparations for too long and we need to know where we stand."
"I am doing everything to convince the governments to allow this series but the present political relations will have an influence and we don't know what the situation will be in the next six months, BCCI is standing firm that they will respect the MoU signed with Pakistan, but they need permission from the recently elected government.”
"In the next few weeks, we will finalise the plan of all the countries who are willing to tour Pakistan and play some matches on their way to the World Cup," he added.
