ICC Considers Multi-Nation Cricket Series Including India and Pakistan
The International Cricket Council (ICC) is reportedly considering organizing a trilateral or quadrilateral cricket series involving India and Pakistan, potentially discussed at an upcoming seminar in Dubai focused on the 2027-2031 Future Tours Programme. This multi-nation format aims to facilitate matches between the two countries, which have not played bilateral series since 2013 due to political tensions. Proposed neutral venues include the UAE, England, or Australia, with the format seen as a way to bypass restrictions on bilateral ties while generating increased revenue.
