'No Time For War and Fights': Shahid Afridi Calls Upon India To Visit Pakistan For Asia Cup 2023 

With Pakistan designated to host Asia Cup 2023, BCCI secretary Jay Shah has already made it clear that team India won't be touring their neighbors for the tournament and that the mega ICC event will be played in a neutral venue. 

Meanwhile, Shahid Afridi has called for India to visit Pakistan for Asia Cup 2023 and take the first steps in improving relations between the two nations.

"Bohot aachi baat hoti agar India aata. India ki taraf se ek step aata towards cricket and Pakistan. Ham toh chahte hei ki relationship better ho, ye koi ladai jhagde ka daur toh nhi hei. Aapas mein pyaar mohabat se khele hei. Mujhe yaad hei jab ham India aaye the outstanding response logo ki taraf. Agar aap ko 2005 ki series yaad ho bohot zabardast. Bhajji and Yuvi shopping and restraunts mein jaa rhe koi paise nahi le rha unse. Ye khobsurti hei dono desho ki," Afridi said in a press conference for the Legends League Cricket, TimesNow reported.
