Najam Sethi, Chair of the PCB Management Committee, thanks the Asian Cricket Council for accepting his hybrid model for the ACC Asia Cup 2023, which is now scheduled from 31 August to 17 September.

Yes, Najam Sethi, the chair of the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB), has thanked the Asian Cricket Council (ACC) for accepting the hybrid model for the Asia Cup 2023. The hybrid model means that four matches will be played in Pakistan, while the remaining nine matches will be played in Sri Lanka. This was proposed by the PCB after the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) refused to tour Pakistan for the tournament.

Sethi said that he was "elated" that the ACC had accepted the hybrid model, and that it was a "significant step" towards restoring international cricket to Pakistan. He also said that the tournament would be a "great opportunity" for Pakistan to showcase its hospitality and cricketing facilities to the world.

The Asia Cup 2023 will be held from August 31 to September 17, and will feature six teams: Pakistan, India, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Afghanistan, and Nepal. The tournament will be played in the 50-over format.

Here is a quote from Najam Sethi:

"I am elated that our hybrid version for the ACC Asia Cup 2023 has been accepted. This is a significant step towards restoring international cricket to Pakistan. The Asia Cup will be a great opportunity for Pakistan to showcase its hospitality and cricketing facilities to the world. We are committed to providing a safe and secure environment for all players and officials, and we look forward to welcoming the world to Pakistan in August-September."
