Indian Premier League is heading towards its last few matches of the league stage. A neck-to-neck competition has been witnessed in various matches in the past few days.

The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) could face challenges in hosting the 2023 Asia Cup following the Board of Control for Cricket in India's (BCCI) statement that they will not send the Indian Cricket Team to participate in the tournament hosted in Pakistan. The tension arose due to political pressure and concerns over the safety of the Indian Cricket Team while traveling to Pakistan for the tournament. Subsequently, Pakistan proposed a new hybrid model, where India and Pakistan would play at a neutral venue and the other teams would play in Pakistan.
