According to reports, England Cricket Board has offered to host India and Pakistan for a Test series. Due to political tensions, the two countries last played a red-ball match in 2007.
The head of the ECB, who is in Pakistan for the ongoing seven-match T20I series, shared his proposal with the PCB head, Ramiz Raja. However, he is not keen on the idea as Pakistan want to host its matches.
Meanwhile, Iceland Cricket has a habit of trolling teams and players and this time they have ECB on their target list for the newest proposal.
Iceland Cricket is ready to host the two arch-rivals with 24 hours of daylight, better social media coverage and good security cover.
“We hear @ECB_cricket have offered to host a Test series between India and Pakistan. We officially announce to @ICC that we are also offering to do the same & can provide near 24-hour daylight in June and July, as well as better Tweets covering the matches. Sniper security too.”
In the second Tweet, they displayed the picture of the Ashes Trophy and gave a new name to the series between India and Pakistan.
“This is the Volcanic Ashes trophy for when Pakistan play India in a 3 Test series here. It’s currently given to the winners of our indoor club tournament, but we can create a new mickey mouse event & trophy for them. Filled with ash from our eruptions & set in a basaltic base.”
