Hafeez said, “Both countries should be given an opportunity to play their full role in the development and expansion of cricket. Cricket should never be stopped because of politics. Secondly, whatever the circumstances surrounding the India-Pakistan match, we must always prioritize the integrity and spirit of the game. “Whenever this match is played, if it is on the 15th, it should be played in the true spirit of the game. We don’t want any match like Asia Cup. If the match is played like this, frankly, I don’t want to see it.”
