Roads are deserted, and no one is at work. There are many people watching cricket on television. 

Digital Desk: On September 4, the President of the Board of Control for Cricket in India Roger Binny attended the gala dinner of the Pakistan Cricket Board. They were treated like kings in Pakistan, according to Binny, who praised PCB's hospitality after his return to India.

The dinner party was attended by Vice President Rajeev Shukla and President Roger Binny, who had crossed the border at Wagah. Even during the ceremony, Binny gave a statement in which he claimed that whenever Pakistan and India play cricket, everything comes to a complete halt.

Roads are deserted, and no one is at work. There are many people watching cricket on television. That is how big cricket is in India and Pakistan, the former player said, referring to the two nations' rivalry.

Binny told ANI that it was an amazing experience and that he got to meet all the Pakistani officials during his tour after he returned home.

"It was an incredible experience. We received the same courtesy as when we played the test match in 1984. It was a great moment for us because we were treated like kings there. We were able to meet all the Pakistan officials and the Pakistan Cricket Board. They are really pleased with the results of our visit, and we were pleased to be there.

Binny had earlier thanked the Pakistan Cricket Board for granting the invitation during his address.

"I want to thank Pakistan Cricket Board for inviting me to the programme tonight. I send you wishes on behalf of the BCCI and Indian cricket fans. India-Pakistan is one of the largest games ever played, as your Excellency mentioned. You can believe me, sir. "Everything comes to a standstill when India plays Pakistan," Roger Binny remarked at the event.
