New Delhi. Asia Cup 2023 has had many controversies since its inception. When India categorically refused to travel to Pakistan and play a match, the PCB took a firm stand. The BCCI repeatedly clarified that the venue of the match would have to be changed but the Pakistan Cricket Board was not ready to accept it and finally the Asian Cricket Council decided to give Sri Lanka the hosting rights along with Pakistan.
Former Pakistan Cricket Board chairman Najam Sethi is still unable to digest that the entire Asia Cup host was taken away from him. The decision was taken in his presence after taking charge of the PCB for a few months. The ACC decided that Pakistan will host 4 of the 13 matches of the Asia Cup while all the remaining matches will be played in Sri Lanka. Now Najam Sethi has described India as scared.
