There is always this alternative of hosting the event in the UAE, like this year’s Asia Cup, but the BCCI note seems to be indicating otherwise.
India’s visit to Pakistan for the Asia Cup in 2023 will, of course, be subject to the clearance of the government of the time, but right now, it is certainly on the agenda of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI).
