Both Sidhu and Singh have been at loggerheads since last year when the former accepted Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan’s invitation to travel to be present at his swearing-in ceremony.
Both Sidhu and Khan have played cricket for their respective countries against each other and known to be good friends.
