“Treated Like Kings”
“We had a very good meeting in Pakistan. We received very good hospitality. They took care of us very well. The main agenda was to watch cricket and to sit and discuss things with them. Overall, it was a very good trip,” Binny stated.
He further added that “Pakistan treated us very well, they went out of the way to make us comfortable.” Later, Binny was asked about the possibility of a bilateral series between India and Pakistan.
“BCCI can’t say. It is a government issue, and they will have to take a call. We need to wait and see. And hopefully, it will happen because the ODI World Cup 2023 is coming up and the Pakistan team will be in India to play.”
