The International Cricket Council’s (ICC) upcoming quarterly meetings in Ahmedabad have sparked renewed speculation over whether Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) chairman Mohsin Naqvi will travel to India later this month, amid strained cricketing ties between the two nations. The ICC is scheduled to hold a virtual Chief Executives’ Committee (CEC) meeting on May 21, followed by in-person Board meetings on May 30 and 31 in Ahmedabad during the 2026 Indian Premier League (IPL) final weekend. The meetings were originally planned for Doha, Qatar, but were shifted to India due to the ongoing crisis in West Asia. PCB Chief In India? Mohsin Naqvi, who also serves as Pakistan’s Interior Minister and Asian Cricket Council (ACC) president, has reportedly been invited to attend both the ICC Board meetings and the IPL 2026 final at the Narendra Modi Stadium. According to reports in Pakistani media, the invitation has already been forwarded to the office of Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, who will take the final decision on whether Naqvi can travel to India. The possibility of his visit has generated significant buzz because of the increasingly tense relationship between the PCB and the BCCI in recent months. Matters escalated sharply after the Asia Cup 2025 final in Dubai, where the Indian team reportedly refused to collect the trophy from Naqvi following his controversial remarks after the Pahalgam terror attack in Jammu and Kashmir. The episode led to an awkward stand-off during the presentation ceremony, with the trophy later remaining in Dubai under PCB instructions. Mohsin Vs India Relations between the two boards have remained frosty ever since, with Naqvi frequently making public statements comparing the Pakistan Super League (PSL) with the IPL, further adding to the friction. The ICC Board meetings in Ahmedabad are expected to focus on key issues concerning international cricket, including governance reforms, scheduling, and revenue-sharing models. Naqvi’s potential attendance, if approved, could become a rare diplomatic moment between the cricket establishments of India and Pakistan.
