Pakistan to issue 10,000 cricket visas
January 4, 2006

8,000 Indians can cross the border to watch the series. Pakistan Government would issue 10,000 cricket visas for fans from across the globe to enable them to watch the upcoming series against India, a top Pakistan Cricket Board official said today.
"Eight-thousand visas will be issued [to Indian fans] and another 2,000 will be issued to fans who have purchased tickets through the internet from various countries," Shaharyar Khan, the PCB chairman, told reporters. "There is lot of interest in the series but then there is only so much space in a stadium. We also have to look at facilities, comfort and security of the people who come to watch the matches," Shaharyar said explaining the cap on visas.
He clarified that cricket visas were "non-police reporting visas", meaning the visa holder did not have to report to the local police which is the normal procedure for Indian and Pakistani nationals when they cross the border.
