New Delhi: The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has clarified its position on the ODI World Cup to be held in India. The PCB has clarified that it never insisted on a neutral venue or hybrid model for the World Cup to be held in India in October-November. During the media interaction on Thursday, PCB Chairman Najam Sethi said – At no stage did I give any reference to the ICC. I did not comment on ICC Men's Cricket World Cup 2023. The matter has not been discussed in any ICC forum so far.

Less likely to go to India

However, Pakistani media reports have also said that Sethi downplayed the chances of the Pakistan team touring India for the ODI World Cup. In case of India's refusal to travel to Pakistan to participate in the Asia Cup, there is a possibility that the Pakistan government may not allow Pakistan to travel to India to participate in the World Cup. He said- there should be a middle way to solve the problems.

Hybrid model agreed for Asia Cup

However, the PCB admitted for the first time that it had agreed to a hybrid model for the Asia Cup, which it is the host for. Sethi said- The proposal to play India's matches at neutral venues and the rest in Pakistan has been discussed in the ACC. Such an arrangement has become necessary because the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has refused to send the Indian team to Pakistan. In this way, Pakistan has almost succumbed to the issue of India not going to Pakistan.

The Asia Cup is to be held in September and another venue for the championship outside Pakistan is yet to be announced. The PCB further clarified that the board is only in discussion with the ACC regarding the hosting of the Asia Cup and there has been no discussion with the ICC regarding the World Cup.

ICC shied away from the statement

The idea of ​​a neutral venue for Pakistan games in the World Cup is said to have been first mooted by Wasim Khan, the General Manager of the International Cricket Council (ICC). However, the ICC distanced itself from his statement. The official had said- I do not know whether it will happen in any other country or not, but there is a great possibility of a neutral place. I don't think Pakistan will play its matches in India. I think their matches will also be at neutral venues like India's Asia Cup matches. The ICC also pointed out that Khan's comments do not represent the position of the ICC.

Impact player will give advantage in bowling department

The introduction of the impact player rule in the IPL is going to benefit the bowling team a lot. Under Clause 1.9 of the IPL Laws, the impact player will be able to bowl his full 4 overs as soon as he is included in the playing 11. Even if he has been brought in place of a bowler who has completed his quota of 4 overs. With this, the bowling team can replace any bowler and call the impact player and get him to do four overs. However, it is necessary for the bowler to be replaced to finish his entire over. Impact player cannot bowl in the middle of the over.

Impact player can be used at any time during the match

Simply put, any team can use any batsman's impact player for batting at any time in the match. No matter how many overs or how many runs he has batted in whose place the impact player has been brought. When the 12th player walks out to bat, it will not happen that 12 players will bat. Any team with an impact player will be able to bat with only 11 batsmen in any innings.
