PCB Chairman to meet BCB President in Dubai

LAHORE (Monitoring Desk): The Chairman of the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) Ehsan Mani will meet Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) President Nazmul Hassan in Dubai this week on the sidelines of the International Cricket Council (ICC) Governance Review Committee meeting, following which the PCB will provide further updates on Bangladesh men’s national cricket team’s upcoming tour of Pakistan.

The Dubai meeting is a continuation of the discussion process, which the PCB has followed to reach a consensus with the BCB on its national men’s cricket team’s tour itinerary.

Earlier, the BCB had decided against sending their team for a two-match Test series to Pakistan as per PCB’s request. The BCB is still adamant on touring Pakistan only for the Twenty20 Int’l (T20I) series.

While speaking to journalists after a board meeting in Dhaka, the BCB President Nazmul Hasan said that the Bangladesh government has instructed them to not allow the team to stay in Pakistan for a long period due to the recent escalation of tensions in the Middle East.

Bangladesh were originally scheduled to arrive in Pakistan in January for three T20Is and two Tests and the PCB was hopeful the full tour would go ahead given that Sri Lanka had visited the country for the Test series.
