Khan said that it was unfair to keep the Pakistan Cricket Board waiting for so long and that he would seek no further meetings with the BCCI officials.
Khan, who was here in Delhi, hoping to meet some top government ministers and officials in a bid to resume cricketing ties with India, said the Indian Board has not responded to the initiative taken by him.
"I am not optimistic (about the series) now after what has happened here because obviously there are pressures here. As of now, the chances are very low. I am not going to make any effort now," Khan told reporters here without specifying what he meant by pressures.
Elaborating on the entire sequence of events since his arrival in the country, Khan said he came on BCCI chief Shashank Manohar's invitation.

Khan was in the capital today and met IPL Chairman Rajeev
Shhukla at his residence.
"
I came here and the idea was to meet other people and engage with BCCI. But there has been no word from BCCI on how they intend to move forward. So I am now going home because it is very clear that there are pressures here that are preventing BCCI. So I am going and no meeting now. I met Shukla ji because I know him for several years meeting him is not meeting the BCCI," he explained.
