Federal Minister for Information and Broadcasting Fawad Chaudhry said today (March 4) that the Indian cricket team should visit Pakistan and play cricket here.

“Indians are still reeling from their loss to Pakistan in Dubai, they have not recovered yet,” said Fawad.

Last year, Pakistan defeated India for the first time in a World Cup fixture by 10 wickets on October 24 at the ICC Cricket T20 World Cup 2021 in Dubai.

“The Indian cricket team should come to Pakistan and play cricket here. Instead of indulging in efforts to undermine and stop international cricket in Pakistan, India and Pakistan should support cricket in each other’s countries. I think we should leave aside our issues and instead sports should be prioritised,” said Fawad.

Fawad Chaudhry said that he wants cooperation between India and Pakistan in cricket, music and films.

“Some 65 per cent people did not vote for Modi. Why should they suffer due to Modi’s policies? We want more people-to-people contact between the two countries. I am sure there are voices in India that will denounce Modi’s extremism,” added Fawad Chaudhry.

Last month, Adviser to Prime Minister (PM) Imran Khan on Commerce, Textile, Industry, and Production, and Investment Abdul Razak Dawood said that trade with India is the need of the hour and beneficial to both countries.
