Virat Kohli of India and Babar Azam of Pakistan could play together in the same squad the following year if the Asian Cricket Council (ACC) decides to bring back the Afro-Asia Cup.

The inaugural 50-over match was played in 2005, but due to deteriorating ties between India and Pakistan, the series was called off after the 2007 season.

Mahela Jayawardene, In the previous competition, , a former captain of Sri Lanka, led an Asia XI that also included cricketers from India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh to a 3-0 victory over an African team that includes players from South Africa, Kenya and Zimbabwe.

Even though bilateral cricket between India and Pakistan has been halted and neither nation's players participate in the other's T20 leagues, the bitter rivals continue to draw large crowds whenever they meet off in international competitions.

The reintroduction of the Cup may be officially approved at an ACC meeting next month, according to ACC President Jay Shah, who is also the secretary of the key Indian board.

We have looked at certain proposals on this, he said.

"It is a high-ended competition that will increase money while also advancing cricket in Africa. On the legal elements, work is now being done.

On the eve of the International Cricket Council's annual general meeting in Birmingham, where it will also try to get approval for its junior and women's cricket development programs, the ACC will strive to find a location for the competition.

These will be put on the table in our meeting, where these policies will be approved and implemented, Shah continued.
