Question

As all of u know that in 1996 world cup india got semi final venue & pakistan got final venue it means that pakistan was richer at that time i wanna honest review from indians

Answer 1

India is a huge country...while Pakistan is a piddu...275bn GDP vs 3trn dollars gdp today....yeah Pakistan was in a better position from today in 1990s but it was past its prime way back in 1970s thanks to Bhutto's nationalization.....and both countries have same love for cricket...both were mad....so considering almost same %age of gdp allotted for sports in both countries.....plus India won WC back in 1984...so I don't think PCB was rich in comparison to BCCI especially in 1990s...maybe in 1970s, huge chance...1980s, slim chance...1990s, no chance apparently

Comments

My question was not on gdp or current scenario i just asked which was richer in cricket board in 90's between india & pakistan if india was richer then why icc gave final to pakistan in 1996 world cup

If BCCI was bigget than PCB then why icc gave final to pakistan???

''so considering almost same %age of gdp allotted for sports in both countries'' ....we are just making assumptions....so........specifically??....no idea except if ICC itself has answered this question in the past...there must be some articles available on 1996 final's venue selection I believe. That may answer your question

Answer 2

NEVER......................
