Home ministry will decide if the Indian cricket team will travel to Pakistan: Sports Minister Anurag Thakur

Pakistan for the Asia Cup next year but feels chances of the players going across the border "aren't much". Thakur though is expecting that Pakistan team will come to India to compete in the 50-over World Cup next year, saying "all are welcome". BCCI secretary Jay Shah, who is also the Asian Cricket Council (ACC) chief, had on Tuesday said that Indian team will not travel to Pakistan for the continental event and they would like to compete in the tournament at a neutral venue. It had prompted Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) to say that it may affect its team's participation in the World Cup in India. "All teams who qualify for (World Cup) are invited (to compete on the Indian soil). Many times Pakistan teams have come to India and played. I feel India is not in a position to be dictated (by someone) and there is no reason for anyone to do that. "I expect all countries to come and compete," Thakur told a select gathering of journalists when asked about the controversy that erupted after Shah's statement.
