Yesterday evening (January 5), ACC President Jay Shah tweeted the schedule for the next two years. Details about Asia Cup, U-19 cricket, emerging players matches and women’s cricket were thoroughly covered in the tweet.
PCB Chairman Najam Sethi was not happy with Shah’s tweet as he cheekily asked him to share the details about Pakistan Super League (PSL) as well. Shah did not respond to Sethi on social media. However, the ACC issued a media release earlier today, that stated:
The Asian Cricket Council went on to state that the PCB did not suggest any modifications to the calendar and added:
What did Najam Sethi say about Jay Shah?
As mentioned above, Najam Sethi did have a cheeky response to the Asian Cricket Council president Jay Shah when he tweeted the details about ACC’s plans for 2023 and 2024.
The Asia Cup 2023 was supposed to take place in Pakistan but Shah previously stated that the tournament has been moved to the United Arab Emirates.
PCB officials have protested against this decision, saying that the president has unilaterally decided on the new venue without consulting the event hosts. It will be interesting to see what happens next as far as the Asia Cup 2023 venue is concerned.
