This decision is made in the midst of mounting anticipation for the much-anticipated match between these long-standing rivals. The rivalry has always drawn a lot of attention from the cricket community.

In an online press conference, Hockley emphasized the tremendous excitement surrounding meetings between India and Pakistan.
“Pakistan and India are traditional rival teams; there is a lot of excitement for their matches,” he remarked.

“We are ready to support both teams for a bilateral and a tri-series. We would be happy to play a role in the revival of Pakistan-India bilateral series,” said Hockley, reflecting Cricket Australia’s eagerness to bring these two cricketing giants together on the same pitch.
“The two boards need to decide first, and we will assist in hosting,” he said.
The busy schedules of the relevant cricket boards, he continued, have prevented formal discussions from happening yet.
