Shahid Afridi Accuses India of Using Security as Excuses for Not Playing in Pakistan

Isha Pannu July 30, 2024 Cricket News, news Comments Off on Shahid Afridi Accuses India of Using Security as Excuses for Not Playing in Pakistan

Former Pakistan captain Shahid Afridi has leveled strong criticism at India, accusing the neighboring country of using security concerns as a pretext for avoiding cricket matches in Pakistan.

Afridi’s comments come amid growing speculation about India’s participation in the 2025 Champions Trophy, which is scheduled to be held in Pakistan. The former all-rounder emphasized that Pakistan has consistently toured India, even during times of heightened tension, and questioned India’s reluctance to reciprocate.

The ongoing political tensions between the two nuclear-armed nations have significantly impacted cricket relations. India has not played a cricket match in Pakistan since the 2008 Asia Cup, and the 2023 Asia Cup was held in a hybrid format to accommodate both teams due to security concerns.

Afridi’s remarks have reignited the debate over India-Pakistan cricket ties and are likely to further intensify the rivalry between the two cricketing powerhouses.

Do you think India will participate in the Champions Trophy 2025 in Pakistan?
