Karachi: Amid a spurt in tensions over incidents along the LoC, the BCCI has told its Pakistani counterpart that unless the Indian government gives a green signal, it cannot clear Faisalabad Wolves’ participation in the Champions League Twenty20, to be held next month.
The Pakistan Cricket Board has, therefore suspended the process of seeking visas for the Faisalabad Wolves, at least for the time being.
“The BCCI has put the ball in the Indian government’s court. The Indian cricket board has said that it can clear the Faisalabad team’s participation in the Champions League only after getting the clearance from its government,” a source in the PCB told PTI.
The Faisalabad team, led by national team skipper Misbah-ul-Haq, was invited to play in the qualifying rounds of the Champions League T20 in India, starting on September 17. (PTI)
