There was a fear of being stuck in India When the IPL was stopped, Moin said, ‘If the IPL was stopped, no one knew what was going on.

The franchise did not put any kind of pressure Moin said, ‘KKR did not put any kind of pressure on us, the franchise said that whatever, we are ready to help all. Being as a Pakistani -origin player in India, I was afraid even more. I just feel that the same type of people live on both sides of the border. All just want to live well.
On the situation of tension between India and Pakistan, I feel that this was done to divert people’s attention from the war between ‘Israel and Gaza’. This is exactly like a war of arms between America and China. However, the truth can be anything. ‘
