Pakistan Cricket Board Chairman Shahryar Khan on Thursday said that the board is ready to send the cricket team to play a series in India despite security threats.
"We are ready to play in India, but the Board of Control for Cricket in India is not ready to let the Indian team play against us even in their own country," Khan maintained.
"Even the International Cricket Council accepts that a series between Pakistan and India is the most important series in the cricketing world," Khan said while addressing the media at Karachi Press Club on Thursday.
"We will keep our programmes as they are, but not playing a series against India does hurt our revenue generation," the PCB chairman added.
"No where in the contract that we signed with BCCI does it say that playing against Pakistan is subject to their government's permission," Khan reiterated, adding that India is yet to reply to Pakistan's latest letter about the matter.
'Can't play three consecutive series in Bangladesh'
Pakistan happily played two consecutive series in Bangladesh, Khan said, "But we cannot play there for a third time without any reciprocation."
"I will sit down with the Bangladesh cricket management and try finding a solution to the problem in a healthy environment," he said, assuring that Pakistan remains interested in playing against Bangladesh, but would like to do it on terms that are beneficial to both sides.
