PCB to invite Bangladesh for Pakistan tour

Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has initiated talks with Bangladesh for a series given the uncertainty of Pakistan`s scheduled series against India.

Reliable sources have confirmed that the PCB has invited Bangladesh for a series in November, which can be considered as Pakistan’s another attempt to bring back international cricket.

“The PCB has told BCB [Bangladesh Cricket Board] to honour the commitment of a reciprocal series, as Pakistan has already toured Bangladesh twice in the last few years and has another tour planned for July 2017,” the source said.

The BCB gave a positive reply and has agreed to send a security delegation to Pakistan. The delegation will oversee the security arrangements and then give a green signal to Bangladesh’s team to visit Pakistan.

“Their security and vigilance team will be coming to Lahore on March 5 for the PSL [Pakistan Super League] final. It will be a good opportunity for the PCB to showcase the type of security available to visiting teams,” the source added.

The PCB has also invited security experts from Federation of International Cricketers` Associations (FICA) and International Cricket Council (ICC) to the PSL’s final.
