Asia Cup 2023 Opening Ceremony LIVE Streaming: Date, Time, Where And Where to Watch
Multan: With a little over three days to go for the start of the much-awaited Asia Cup, the excitement is palpable. Hosts Pakistan take on Nepal in the curtain-raiser on Wednesday at Multan. Amid all the hype around the tournament, the question is – will there be an opening ceremony? If so, when and where will it be held? Also, who are the artists performing and the guest list. Reports suggest BCCI Secretary and President of Asian Cricket Council (ACC), Jay Shah, who was invited by Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) to attend the opener between Pakistan and Nepal has turned down the proposal.
According to a report in PTI a fortnight back, PCB revealed that besides Shah, heads of other cricketing bodies of the ACC have also been invited for the match. In fact, a more well-informed PCB source added that the invitation was sent to the ACC chief out of hope than any realistic expectation of him visiting Pakistan.
“The PCB has basically followed up on the invitation which was extended verbally by Chairman Zaka Ashraf to Jay Shah when they both met in Durban for the ICC meeting,” the source said.
