The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has reportedly shown disinterest in playing a warm-up match against Afghanistan in the ICC 2023 World Cup.
The PCB prefers to face a non-Asian team in the warm-up match since they will already be playing against Afghanistan in the Asia Cup before the ODI World Cup, according to sources from Geo News.
