Sri Lanka Reach Pakistan For ODI Series

Karachi: Tight security greeted the Sri Lankans as they touched down at the Quaid-e-Azam international airport with the touring side due to play back to back one-day games in Karachi on Tuesday and Wednesday and the third in Lahore on Saturday before flying home to take on India.

"It is a very good sign that finally a foreign team is in Pakistan to play an international series. Hopefully this will clear the way for other teams to also tour Pakistan," said Javed Miandad, the Pakistan Cricket Board's director general.

Sri Lanka would return to Pakistan next month to play two Tests after the completion of their home series against India.

First two ODI back to back on January 20 and 21 at Karachi.
