BCCI has asked the Indian government for clearance to host the Under-19 Youth Asia Cup since the tournament will include Pakistan team. The tournament is scheduled to be held in November. The BCCI has written to the Indian government seeking permission for hosting the Youth Asia Cup for under-19 boys and are still awaiting a reply. The government’s stance so far has been that India cannot play Pakistan in a bilateral series but there’s no clarity on whether they could face each other in a multinational event like this,” BCCI official said.
