The government of Pakistan has allowed its cricket team to go to India for the World Cup. 


Former Indian cricketer Anil Kumble revealed that when he was playing cricket, at that time the team was told to lose to Kenya of course but not to lose to Pakistan. 

According to Indian media, Anil Kumble, who spoke about the matches between Pakistan and India, said at an event that “In our time, we were told that of course we should lose to Kenya, but not to lose to Pakistan, there was pressure on the players. And there was hope from them.

On the other hand, there is a possibility that there will be four ODIs between Pakistan and India in September and October this year. 

Pakistan and India face off in the Asia Cup on September 2 in Kandy, Sri Lanka. If these two teams qualify for the next round of the Asia Cup, cricket fans will once again see the two traditional rivals play against each other on 10 September. 

If both teams then reach the final of the Asian Cup, it will be the third match between the arch-rivals in a month. 

The ICC Cricket World Cup match between Pakistan and India is also scheduled on October 14 at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad.

This match was earlier scheduled for October 15, but the date has been changed. 

It should be remembered here that the government of Pakistan allowed its cricket team to go to India for the World Cup. 

Keep in mind that this year's Asia Cup will be a one-day format, which will be officially hosted by Pakistan. 

The first match of the Asia Cup will be played on August 30 in Multan between Pakistan and Nepal, while the final of the event will take place on September 17 in Colombo.
