Bangladesh to play two-match T20I series against UAE ahead of Pakistan tour

2 May 25

South Africa have announced the schedule for a seven-game limited overs tour by Pakistan in April, providing a chance to return to play following Australia’s decision to pull out of a three-Test series in the country next month.

South Africa and Pakistan will contest three One-Day Internationals between Apr. 2-7, which will be followed by four Twenty20 Internationals from Apr. 10-16 to close the home side’s summer season.

All games will be played on the Highveld in either Johannesburg or Pretoria, with the teams entering a bio-secure environment to quarantine from Mar. 26.

The series will provide much-needed revenue for Cricket South Africa, who are reeling from the financial fall-out of Australia’s withdrawal, the latter citing Covid-19 fears.

South Africa recently completed a two-test tour of Pakistan and are currently engaged in a three-match Twenty20 series. It is their first visit to the country since a militant attack on the Sri Lanka team bus in 2009.
