Regardless of Pakistan's expectation that it could play two-sided cricket coordinates with its neighbor, the Leading body of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) denied any such series sooner rather than later saying they are not "prepared to play with Pakistan".
While in a meeting with The Sydney Morning Messenger Wednesday, Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) boss Najam Sethi agreed with the suggestion of playing a Test match series against its neighbor at a setting satisfactory to the two nations.
PCB boss was of the view that "indeed, I think reciprocal Test matches can be played in Australia, Britain, and South Africa."
Yet, he said, I think the smartest option would be Britain, and following that Australia.
"In the event that you can get a house full in any of the Australian arenas, fine, that would be perfect," added Sethi.
India media detailed while answering Sethi's meeting that BCCI has no designs to play any reciprocal series against Pakistan.
No designs for such sort of series to occur from here on out or impending days. We aren't prepared for any sort of reciprocal series with Pakistan," Indian media said refering to a source at BCCI.
Pakistan and India haven't played reciprocal series in that frame of mind beginning around 2012-13. Pakistan last visited India for ODI and T20I series. The two most despised rivals played a Test against one another back in 2007.
No plans for such kind of series to happen in the future or upcoming days. We aren't ready for any kind of bilateral series with Pakistan: BCCI source to ANI

Today Pakistan media reported that PCB chairman Najam Sethi gave a green signal to a potential Pakistan-India Test series…
After the fear assault in the Sri Lankan group in Lahore in 2009, ways to facilitating global cricket were shut for Pakistan. No cricket was played in Pakistan for just about six years until Zimbabwe visited Pakistan in 2015.
Pakistan used to play all of their matches in the UAE during this time span.
As of now, the two nations keep on having a gridlock on Asia Cup 2023.
BCCI has would not send their group to Pakistan for the Asia Cup, which is set to occur in September this year, and is enthused about guaranteeing that the occasion is held at a nonpartisan scene.
In any case, the PCB isn't keen on facilitating the occasion outside Pakistan since it would influence its endeavors as to the arrival of global cricket in the country.
