BCCI vs PCB Dispute

The BCCI and the PCB had a dispute over Pakistan hosting the Asia Cup 2023. The BCCI refused to send its team to Pakistan citing security concerns. The PCB accused the BCCI of politicizing cricket and said that it was ready to host the tournament.

The dispute had been going on for several months and there was no sign of a resolution. The dispute was finally resolved after the BCCI accepted the hybrid model presented by PCB Chairman Najam Sethi. Under this model, the tournament will be held in two countries: Pakistan and Sri Lanka. The first four matches will be held in Pakistan while the rest of the matches will be held in Sri Lanka.

The decision to hold the tournament in two countries is a compromise between the two boards and is being seen as a positive development for cricket.
