With the BCCI clearance coming and the Indian government green signal likely on cards for the resumption of the bilateral series between Pakistan and India, the veteran players of both the nations are now hoping for some “good news” for themselves. Fawad Ijaz Khan, chairman Pakistan Veterans Cricket Association (PVCA) is believed to have been in touch with former India opener, Chetan Chauhan President Veterans Cricket Association of India (VCAI). Confirming it from Karachi, he said: “I had discussed with Chauhan a month ago to either bring India’s veterans to play in Pakistan or invite our seniors to play in India. Chauhan’s response was very positive but he could not have done so without the consent of the Indian cricket board. “I have tried to contact Chauhan on Tuesday but he is believed to be in USA and would not return before August 10. I may as well leave for USA for my official work and meet him over there,” Fawad said. “We have an approval from the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) to resume the ties,” he added. Meanwhile, Intikhab Alam, PCB’s Game Development Director has written in the NOC that “we the PCB have no objection on tour of Indian senior team and we assure you for our utmost support to you in holding of this series.”
