In a recent interview, Shahid Afridi stated that it is very important for the two countries to start playing cricket again. He added that cricket can help to improve the relations between the neighbors. Shahid Afridi claimed that Indian players love playing in Pakistan. India last visited Pakistan in 2008 during the Asia cup.
“Cricket between Pakistan and India is very important. Sports should be kept away from politics. Relations between the two countries can improve because of cricket,” Afridi told Cricket Pakistan.
“I have said this before as well, Indian cricketers enjoy coming to Pakistan. You can improve relationships through sports but if you don’t want to improve them then they will remain the same way,” he further said.
