PCB chairman Shaharyar Khan has asserted, Pakistan cannot play a bilateral series in India as desired by the BCCI. A day after he revealed that BCCI president Shashank Manohar had offered to host Pakistan in December, Khan today told ESPNCRICINFO, that the series would only be possible only if India come and play in the UAE. According to the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) signed between the two boards in 2014, Pakistan were meant to host India for a home series comprising two Tests, five ODIs and two Twenty20s. However, it is understood that only about a month's window is available for the series as India travel to Australia on January 8 for a limited-over contest from January 12. Like in India, where the final decision on the bilateral series would rest on the government, the PCB will also wait for a final approval from its government to go ahead with the proposed series.
