Will Pakistan play the match or not? Cricket team has been stopped from going to the stadium
The Pakistan national cricket team was stopped from leaving their hotel for the scheduled Asia Cup match at Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore. The squad’s departure has been made conditional on receiving formal clearance from the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB).
Team management has halted travel plans while waiting for the PCB’s green signal. Meanwhile, an emergency meeting of the International Cricket Council (ICC) is underway to address the situation. Sources say officials are weighing whether to replace the match referee or issue an official apology following a brewing controversy.
Adding to the drama, the PCB has summoned media representatives to the Gaddafi Stadium. Insiders believe the board could make a major announcement soon—possibly about whether Pakistan will continue playing in the Asia Cup or withdraw from the tournament altogether.
For now, the fate of the match remains uncertain, leaving players stranded in their hotel rooms and fans anxiously awaiting clarity.
