Pakistan will play a three-game T20 series against Afghanistan near the end of March, confirmed Chairman of the Pakistan Cricket Board Management Committee Najam Sethi on Sunday.
Sethi said the T20I series would compensate Afghanistan for the losses caused by the withdrawal of Cricket Australia from their ODI series scheduled in the UAE.
In response to Australia’s withdrawal from the bilateral series, he tweeted that he was “pleased to announce Pakistan Cricket Board will play 3xT20s versus Afghanistan in Sharjah at the end of March.”
The Pakistan Cricket Board chief added that he also supported the Asian Cricket Council’s decision to grant Afghanistan an equal share of ACC revenues like the other top four member boards.
“I also supported the ACC’s decision to grant Afghanistan an equal share of ACC revenues like the BCCI, Pakistan Cricket Board, SLC, and BCB,” he said.
