The World eleven will come to Pakistan. I can tell you this notable players from all member countries of the ICC will be in the World eleven,” he told.
“Once the World eleven comes to Lahore the Sri Lankan team will also come and it will open the doors for more teams to come to Pakistan,” Sethi said.
“We will announce the names of the players in the World eleven side in the next 2 to 3 days,” the PCB chief said. Sethi since taking over Chairman this month has made it clear his priority is to see the return of international cricket to Pakistan.
He said the PCB was taking top security experts from other boards and FICA on board to assure them international teams can play in Lahore without any concerns.
The International Cricket Council is supporting the World eleven tour to Pakistan while the Sri Lankan board has said that subject to government clearance it wants to play one T20 match in Lahore this year.
