The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has confirmed that Pakistan will host Australia in March 2022. The multi-format tour is slated to begin on March 03 and continue till April 05.  The tour will have three-match Test series followed by as many ODIs and a solitary T20 International. PCB chairman Ramiz Raja said, “I am delighted to welcome Australia to Pakistan. From a personal point of view, it pleases me no end that we’ll be engaged in a three-Test match series, connoisseurs delight. Australia are one of the high-performing sides, and them playing in our backyard for the first time after a gap of 24 years will be a special treat for the fans.” “Likewise, it will be a great opportunity for the Australia cricketers to not only play at our iconic venues but also feel and enjoy the respect, love and hospitality that this great country offers, something which most of their previous generation of cricketers missed out by playing offshore,” he added.
