The Asia Cup 2023 scheduled for Pakistan has been put in doubt, according to cricketer Kamran Akmal of Pakistan. He asserts that teams like Ireland and Zimbabwe wouldn’t need to be invited if the tournament didn’t take place.
Akmal thinks that if these teams are invited, they ought to face Pakistan’s A-team. Akmal contends that Pakistan must play challenging games in order to build confidence prior to the ICC World Cup. He makes specific mention of the benefits of competing against strong teams like South Africa.
Akmal emphasizes the value of tough cricket, as advocated by legends such as Inzamam, Javed Miandad, and Imran Khan. They believe that Pakistan should face strong opposition before major tournaments, regardless of the outcome, because it will help them prepare.
