Would like to see India touring Pakistan: Alam

"I think the best thing about this series is the revival of Indo-Pak cricket. I would like to see Indian team coming to Pakistan and playing a few ODIs and T20s. I think it will be wonderful if we can do that," he said.

"I am really happy to have come here and watch the match. But we will be happier if India comes and plays in Pakistan," Alam, who was invited by the CAB for a felicitation ceremony to mark the 25 years of Indo-Pak ODI matches, added.

Alam, meanwhile, said that the Indian team would take some time to rebuild the side after the retirements of the likes of Sachin Tendulkar and Rahul Dravid.

"If you lose three-four class players or match-winning players, it takes time to rebuild the team. It's not like you take a magic wound and get things right. My feeling is, it takes about 10 years to find good players.

"And then the amount of passion they have, the fitness levels...It all depends on various factors," he said, adding that the stress should also be on having good vision and good selectors who have eye for talent. (MORE)
