When Manohar was asked about the status of the series, he gave a strange reply. "It is Pakistan which needs to decide the venue, ticketing, broadcasters for the series. It is their series," the Vidarbha-based lawyer said.
When asked if there are chances that the government will clear the tour, he smiled and said: "I am not an astrologer and I can't predict," he said.
External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj today left for Islamabad to have talks with counterpart Sartaj Aziz.
