Justifying the competition, Ramiz Raja had previously said “I am not a big fan of bilateral T20 series as T20I cricket needs a new life amid the challenges around franchise cricket. Playing five bilateral T20Is is tedious, but if three or four nations play each other rather than bilateral series, that has a massive potential in terms of generating revenue.”
“We want to move forward. Look at the numbers from the T20 World Cup. When Pakistan plays India the world stops to watch and it’s a great spectacle. We have to see what fans want and we have do what is right,” he further elaborated. While Indo-Pak games always prove to be a cash cow, it will be interesting to see whether the event actually goes ahead, given strained relationship between these two nations.
