Imran Khan says India acting like superpower, says Pakistan

Amid the ongoing tension between India and Pakistan over the Asia Cup and ODI World Cup schedule, Imran Khan, a former captain of the Pakistan cricket team, criticised BCCI and alleged that they are acting like superpower Imran, as quoted by Cricket Pakistan. It is a sad and unfortunate affair, the relationship between Pakistan and India. India is acting as a superpower in the cricketing world because of a lot of arrogance. The former Prime Minister of Pakistan said that the Indian cricket board should take it out on the Pakistani cricket players by not allowing them to play in the IPL because of their ability to generate a lot of money, more than any other country. If India doesn't allow Pakistan to play IPL then Pakistan should not worry about it because Pakistan has quality young cricketers, said Imran.

The ODI World Cup and the Asia Cup schedules have been a point of dispute between the cricket bodies of Pakistan and India. India will host the ODI World Cup later this year, while the Asia Cup will be held in Pakistan.

According to some previous reports, India might play their Asia Cup matches at a neutral venue, but it is yet to be confirmed. It is still not clear whether the players will visit India for the World Cup.

The 16th edition of the Indian Premier League IPL began on Friday with a grand opening ceremony. As part of the tradition, the defending champions of Gujarat Titans, led by Hardik Pandya and Chennai Super Kings, faced each other for the first match of the season, and Gujarat Titans defeated Chennai Super Kings by 5 wickets.
