New Delhi/Karachi, April 14: The Cricket Board today appeared to be in the dark about government’s nod for resumption of Indo-Pak cricket ties even as Pakistan ruled out playing at a neutral venue.
“I have only read in the newspapers (about resumption of Indo-Pak cricket ties). I don’t know. You people know more than I know,” BCCI Secretary N Srinivasan said, a day after the government let it be known that the cricketing ties, suspended since the aftermath of the 26/11 terror attack, will be resumed probably in early 2012.
The government’s decision came as a surprise to the BCCI given that the Indian team has a full calendar.
Immediately after the ongoing IPL, India is scheduled to tour the West Indies for four Tests and five ODIs, followed by a long tour of England in July-August.
