The Pakistan cricket team was warmly welcomed by Indian people in Hyderabad, India, on Wednesday for the ICC World Cup 2023.

Moreover, the Pakistan cricket team took part in training sessions at the Rajiv Gandhi International Cricket Stadium in Hyderabad.

Remember that this was the first training session for Pakistan’s side after reaching India for the ICC World Cup 2023.

The skipper, Babar Azam, Shaheen Afridi, Iftikhar Ahmed, Haris Rauf, and Hasan Ali, and the majority of the players, participate in the training.

Unfortunately, a delay in time created uncertainty about Pakistan’s participation in the World Cup. Finally, India issued a visa for Pakistan, ending the uncertainty.

The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) complained to the International Cricket Council (ICC) about a visa delay that had hampered the team’s preparations for the huge event across the border.

Pakistan are scheduled to play two warm-up matches before opening their World Cup campaign against the Netherlands on October 6.

India and Pakistan will meet in a mouth-watering match on October 14 in Ahmedabad.
