The conflict between BCCI and PCB has caused doubts over the Asia Cup 2023, as India has declined to go to Pakistan for the tournament.

Nevertheless, PCB has suggested an alternative plan to ACC and BCCI, where India can compete in neutral locations while Pakistan hosts the rest of the matches and remains the official host of the event.

According to Jay Shah, the President of the Asian Cricket Council, the council is waiting for input from the participating countries about the venue for Asia Cup.

“We are awaiting feedback from other nations to finalise the venue for the 2023 Asia Cup and clarity on the India-Pakistan match," Shah said on Friday during a media interaction.

Shah also revealed that the Asian Cricket Council has earned USD 26.2 million.

“We have achieved a historic milestone of generating additional revenue for the ACC, creating new avenues of income such as NFT, Hybrid Graphics, and Pathway Tournament rights.

“This has resulted in a record-breaking 26.2 million USD earned. This incredible milestone was achieved by creating, exploring, and monetizing new opportunities. This goes to show that the ACC is doing a great job of innovating and expanding its reach in the global market," Shah added.
