Just a few months ago, Ramiz Raja was the president of the Pakistan Cricket Board. After 15 years they had gotten the hosting rights of the Asia Cup. But India refused to travel to Pakistan for the tournament and asked for the competition to be shifted. 

Ramiz Raja then threatened to not send the Pakistan Cricket team to India to participate in the 2023 ICC ODI World Cup. Sadly for Ramiz Raja, India did not travel to Pakistan, Pakistan is currently in India competing for the World Cup and he was also removed from his post of chairman of the PCB in December 2022.

The 2023 Asia Cup was finally played in Pakistan and Sri Lanka. Pakistan hosted 4 matches out of 13, while Sri Lanka hosted the remaining matches. Pakistan played only 2 matches in Pakistan, while India played all their matches in Sri Lanka. India ended up winning the tournament as well, with Pakistan getting knocked out of the Super 4 stage. 

Ramiz Raja is currently in India, working as a presenter for Star Sports in their coverage of the 2023 ICC ODI World Cup. He was present in Hyderabad for both of Pakistan’s warm up matches and their first match of the tournament.
