PCB OFFER TO HOST SL FOR TEST SERIES IN PAKISTAN

- (Agencies)

The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has offered Cricket Sri Lanka (SLC) Karachi and Lahore as venues for a two-match Test series, which will be a part of the ICC Test Championsh­ip, and is scheduled for later this year.

The offer was extended by top-most PCB officials -Chairman Ehsan Mani and Managing Director Wasim Khan - on the sidelines of the recent Asian Cricket Council Meeting in Singapore.

Along with proposing the two venues, the PCB has also extended an invitation to the officials of the Sri Lankan Board to access the security situation.

Having a top nation over for Tests will provide the much-needed boost to their efforts. And, if Sri Lanka agrees to tour Pakistan it will see the latter host Test cricket after a gap of a little over a decade.
