“I have had a word with Sachin Tendulkar on the possibility of the All-Stars series in Pakistan one day. Sachin was happy and expressed willingness to materialise this idea. “This series should go to India and Pakistan to act as a bridge between the two neighbouring countries. It’s about time that Pakistan and India should move forward and play cricket against each other, it will help in bridging the gap between the neighbours.”
