A two-member security delegation of Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC) will reach Pakistan on Wednesday to decide if it is safe for its National Team to tour Pakistan in October for a round of the ICC World Test Championship.
Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) chairman Ehsan Mani said that the Sri Lankan delegation will visit the grounds and hotels where the teams will stay in Karachi, Lahore, and Islamabad besides meeting the board, police and security officials.
He said the Sri Lankan Board has said it would take a final decision on sending its team to Pakistan for the two-Test series based on the report by its security delegation.
“The Sri Lankan security delegation will be in Karachi on August 6 and then travel to Lahore and Islamabad,” he confirmed.
