While Australia has responded positively to Ramiz’s proposal, he is awaiting a response from India and England. “The coming meetings are important because Ramiz is planning to meet with the BCCI officials on the sidelines of the ICC meetings and discuss matters of mutual interest including the four-nation proposal, the Asia Cup and other matters,” a source in the PCB said.
He would also talk to BCCI chief Saurav Ganguly on Indo-Pakistan cricket and the proposed four-nation event. “I’ll talk to Ganguly regarding a four-nation tournament. The future of cricket is in triangular and four-nation competitions. Twenty20 leagues are taking away eyeballs from bilateral cricket, of which the novelty factor is decreasing.”
