New Dehli: Former Indian cricket captain Kapil Dev has said that Pakistan cricketers are very talented and they should be included in Indian Premier League (IPL).
Talking to Geo News – a private Pakistan news channel, he said that Pakistani crickets should be part of IPL. He said Pakistani cricketers can increase the charm of IPL because they remained international champions.
The Indian cricket legend said that sport should be kept away from politics.
On the other hand, the Governing Council of Indian Premier League (IPL) has decided not to induct Pakistani cricketers in the 5th season of the series, Indian media reported on Friday.
Pakistani players have not taken part in the IPL since the Mumbai attacks that took place in November 2008.
Talking to a Pakistani news channel earlier this week, IPL Chairman Rajiv Shukla had said the council would decide the fate of the Pakistani players.
