(UTV|COLOMBO) – Pakistan and India squared off at the legal crease at a hearing at the International Cricket Council (ICC) Headquarters in Dubai Monday (01) after the two sides failed to honour a deal to compete in several bilateral series.
The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) is demanding USD 70 million in compensation from India, claiming that a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) signed in 2014 had guaranteed six bilateral series between 2015 and 2023.
However the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) have said they are unable to play against Pakistan until their Government gives them permission and dismissed the agreement as not legally binding.
The hearing is set to last until 03 October.
