Najam Sethi never spoke to ICC about playing World Cup matches in Bangladesh: PCB

The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has clarified that its chairman Najam Sethi didn't make any recommendation relating to Pakistan playing their World Cup matches in Bangladesh instead of India.

"At no stage during Thursday’s media interaction, did I give any reference to the ICC or made any remarks on the ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup 2023, which is scheduled in October. This matter has not been mooted or discussed at any ICC forum so far,” Sethi said in the press release.

According to PTI, ICC had already stated that no discussions relating to the Cricket World Cup 2023 were carried out with PCB as BCCI had assured that visa won't be a problem for the Men in Green.
