LAHORE: Pakistan Cricket Board Chairman Mohsin Naqvi met his counterparts Lawson Naidoo (Cricket South Africa) and Roger Twose (New Zealand Cricket) in Dubai.
The agenda of the meeting included the ODI tri-series between Pakistan, New Zealand and South Africa, to be held in February 2025 in Pakistan, just before the ICC Champions Trophy. The tri-series was finalised and welcomed by the host and both the member boards.
According to a PCB press release, Mohsin Naqvi also extended invitations to Roger Twose and Lawson Naidoo to visit Pakistan.
The Pakistan Cricket Board last hosted a tri-series in October 2004, with Sri Lanka and Zimbabwe being other two teams in the competition.
Commenting on the development, PCB Chairman Mohsin Naqvi said: “The tri-series between Pakistan, South Africa and New Zealand will be an exciting event and it is after a long time that Pakistan will host such a tournament. I would like to thank the heads of NZC and CSA for agreeing to participate in the tri-series. The PCB is also looking forward to hosting the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 which will be a great pleasure for Pakistan to host the top eight ODI teams on its soil.”
