Following a suggestion made by Indian skipper Rohit Sharma in a recent interview, several representatives of English stadiums have reportedly expressed interest in hosting the bilateral Test series of Pakistan vs India, as per a report by The Telegraph on Monday.
Iconic venues such as Lord’s, The Oval, and Edgbaston have all shown interest in hosting the intense rivalry between the two teams.
Representatives from Lord’s, as well as the counties of Surrey and Warwickshire, informed the publication that they believe they could serve as suitable hosts.
Both Surrey’s chief executive, Steve Elworthy, and Warwickshire’s chief executive, Stuart Cain, have voiced their support for the idea of hosting Pakistan vs India matches at their respective grounds.
The suggestion arose after India’s captain, Rohit Sharma, mentioned in an interview with the Club Prairie Fire podcast that it would be fantastic for India to play Pakistan in a Test match hosted by a neutral country.
