Then why are you desperate to play with India and then deal with the BCCI.
My suggestion to PCB, Ban all matches with BCCI or India, in india, or neutral ground except world cup matches for 20 Years ASAP and stop all pakistani cricketers, umpire and commentator, or coaches to go to India on the security reason from the thread from the Dangerous terrorist Shiv Sena.

India should play Pakistan in UAE . How gracelessly BBCI handled the whole situation shows why politicians and businessmen should only stick to politicking and business and not involve themselves with sports .

BCCI is BCCI. They are like the Pentagon of cricket. But it's not that PCB covered itself in glory. Both Boards were only interested in making a song and dance about the series without ever wanting to play. BCCI wanted to show that it humiliated PCB and PCB wanted to show that it held its own against BCCI. It's not very difficult to figure what happened. After things started getting out of hand with PCB threatening boycott etc., there was a closet understanding - BCCI will refuse to play in UAE and offer to host then here, PCB will refuse the offer. Both sides get to save face, South Asia style, and no cricket gets played.

Isn't Ten Sports Indian as well?

It is but it has agreements with pcb instead of bcci.

 

[Pakistani till death]

Perhaps you did not know, Ten Sports is Indian as well, head quarters in Mumbai.

Is it associated with the indian cricket team? No it has the rights to broadcast pakistans matches which means if ten sports broadcasts the matches then pcb earns money. Use your mind a bit more maybe?

Only 79% of Indians are Hindus. Officially 15% of Indians are Muslims. That makes it 191 million Muslims, almost as many as in Pakistan. The actual number could be higher. They are also equally responsible for what we do as a country, good or bad.

It also means for every Pakistani that watches a cricket match where Pakistani cricket team is playing, there is an Indian making money out of it, a good part of which goes to the IT department of India as tax money. I would care less about PCB and more about that tax money.

Who owns Ten Sports?

rediff Businness Desk | March 16, 2004

The Ten Sports-Doordarshan battle, which had led to uncertainty over the telecast of the historic India-Pakistan cricket series, had made millions of fans bite their nails in anxiety.

Ten Sports has the exclusive telecast rights for all cricket matches played in Pakistan. It has also bagged the telecast rights for West Indies cricket for the next five years. The combined cost of both acquisitions is said to be around $50 million.

The sports channel demanded $24 million from Doordarshan to share its live telecast feed, but DD refused to part with that amount leading to a high-profile battle which moved from the high courts of Mumbai, Chennai and Delhi to the Supreme Court. Due to the apex court's intervention, cricket fans in India have been able to watch the first two ODIs.


Meanwhile, Ten Sports has indicated that it might be ready for an out-of-court settlement over the issue with DD, to put the controversy to rest.

But what is Ten Sports? Who owns it? Let us find out.

When was Ten Sports channel launched?

The channel launched on April 1, 2002, and is now the world's premier sports channel for South Asians, reaching nearly 55 million homes in the sub-continent, Middle East, Europe & Asia.

How good are its broadcasting facilities?

Taj's broadcast and production facility is one of the most advanced in the industry, and was purpose built for television.

Its production facility is the best in the UAE, in terms of technology, experienced personnel, and efficiency.

India should play Pakistan in UAE . How gracelessly BBCI handled the whole situation shows why politicians and businessmen should only stick to politicking and business and not involve themselves with sports .

I slightly disagree...India should definitely play but why UAE man??...Why not in Pakistan...I still feel that Pakistan cities like Lahore, Karachi and Islamabad is safe city to play ...What is the point in playing in UAE?? Either play in Pakistan or India or if not, then choose either BD or Sri Lanka as neutral venue where our people from India and Pakistan can easily travel to...

I have a question for indians here. You guys refused to play with us due to ongoing political crisis and us supporting terrorism yet you guys now want to play a series in india. Isnt this fishy? If the problem was actually what you stated then you would have never asked us to play not even in india. The real problem is money. If we host it in uae then ten sports would be the broadcaster which would mean all profits for pcb not bcci. Sri lanka also has tensports but you only played with them in your last tour after they allowed you to choose your own broadcaster. Stop turning this beautiful game into a business please.

Do not go by the statement from BCCI...Most of the people in India perstonally feel and India and Pakistan should play to each other..You have to read between the lines..The issue is due to lot many IPL kind tournament, Indian board does not have time to even spare a series with Pakistan..

I feel that India should really play Pakistan in Pakistan itself..This bullshit of not playing in Pakistan should end some day...If we go by security, even France is not secure today too...Does that mean none of the sports team will not visit France?...This kind of silly argument by Indian Gov should stop and sports and cultural activity should be immidiately started between both of our nations..

 

[Indika]

No cricket with pakistan, let them keep whining. They can play with other countries and be happy. Why play with arch enemy any way? That too when modi is the prime minister,according to them he killed thousands of muslims .
Dont play with kafirs who kill freedom fighters in ooooocupied kashmir.

Money makes the world go around rt? chinese are round the corner holding the cricket bat ................................

You very well know we cant play in paksitan. Uae is our home every country plays there with us why doesnt india. The issue isnt this. India agreed to pakistan hosting the full series ie in uae and india had the time slot as well so time wasnt the issue. The issue is money which can only be earned by bcci if it is played in india. Feeling sorry for cricket...its a business now. Will never see new nations coming up to embrace it outisde of asia. Anyways really thank you mate for your kind words at the end.

Dont change the topic dude. We are talking about bcci and pcb and my point is bcci will earn nothing if ten sports broadcasts it and this is unacceptable to the money greedy bosses of bcci.
