Cricket: Pakistan keen to host ICC events in 2023-31 cycle

FILE PHOTO: ON THIS DAY -- March 28 March 28, 2005 CRICKET Ð The Pakistan cricket team celebrates after defeating India by 168 runs in the final test of their three-match series in Bangalore. Having drawn the first test in Mohali and lost the second in Kolkata, Pakistan needed to win in Bangalore to level the series. The tourists set India a target of 383 in the fourth innings, and their spinners combined to take seven wickets to bowl the hosts out for 214. Younis Khan was named the Player of the Match after scoring 267 and 84 not out in the first and second innings, respectively.

Pakistan have offered to host global flagship tournaments after the International Cricket Council (ICC) invited expression of interest from its members for events in the 2023-31 cycle.

Pakistan last staged an ICC event in 1996 when it co-hosted the 50-overs World Cup with India and Sri Lanka and the country has been largely starved of international cricket since a 2009 attack on the touring Sri Lanka team in Lahore.

"The PCB has expressed its interest in hosting ICC events during the 2023-31 events cycle," a Pakistan Cricket Board spokesperson told Reuters.

"We will work in line with ICC guidelines and look forward to submitting strong proposal in the coming months."

Pakistan played their first test on home soil since 2009 against Sri Lanka in December and have hosted Bangladesh this year.

ICC chief executive Manu Sawhney toured several member countries encouraging bids following the governing body's decision to select hosts of future events through a bidding process.

"We are extremely encouraged with the positive response we've received for the 2023-31 cycle," an ICC spokesman said.

"We have had close to 100 offers with 18 members showing interest in holding the 28 events proposed for the cycle."
