‘'Pakistan 2023’' will not be written on any team’s jersey at Asia Cup 2023
Mohammad Rizwan talked with the Nepal players on Monday ahead of their August 30 Asia Cup 2023 opening in Multan.
Every team competing at the Asia Cup 2023 will have the name "Pakistan 2023" on its jersey, according to earlier predictions. The 16th Asia Cup will take place in 2023, and it will be co-hosted by Pakistan and Sri Lanka this year. The name of the host country is always written in every Asia Cup, but after Pakistan hosted this Asia Cup the name on the jersey of Pakistan is not written. It's not a good thing at all. It appeared that this would not be the case at the continental showpiece this year.
Pakistan Cricket team revealed its new jersey for the World Cup and Asia Cup 2023. The "Star Nation Jersey" was revealed at Gaddafi Stadium, Lahore with a grand ceremony. On Monday,28 August for the ODI WC.
Mohammad Rizwan talked with Nepal players in a video shared by the official Pakistan Cricket Team handle before their Asia Cup 2023 opener in Multan on August 30. It is clear that 'Pakistan 2023' is not written on both teams that are Pakistan and Nepal. This reveals that the name of Pakistan on the jersey is not displayed by the host country.
The jerseys just have the official Asia Cup logo under the right shoulder, with no indication of the host country, and it is believed that the other countries would have a similar design on their own jerseys. In the earlier pictures of the Indian Cricket Team a Month ago circulating on social media, on that pics the name 'Pakistan 2023' was displayed on the Indian jerseys, and different people on social media liked this and were happy about this mostly Pakistani people. Now, it seems, that is not the case.
