LAHORE: Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has agreed to play a day-night Test match against Aussies in Adelaide during their tour of Australia towards the backend of the ongoing year.
The series is part of the inaugural International Cricket Council (ICC) World Test Championship.
The report stated that Cricket Australia (CA) were keen on playing an additional Test match during the same series but they were unable to convince PCB in this regard.
The delay in the announcement of the schedule for this series, from the CA, was because PCB wanted CA to agree on playing a bilateral series in Pakistan, during their away series in 2022, the report stated further.
“The dialogue between CA and the PCB was around what we would need to do to make that tour happen,” PCB managing director Wasim Khan said.
“We also know there’s a lot of bilateral cricket to be played before that. We need to continue to evidence security measures we can put in place. All things being well we can pick up dialogue in early 2022,” Wasim added.
Pakistan are scheduled to play two-match Test series and a three-match T20 International (T20I) series, in November and December 2019.
