In an effort to revive India-Pakistan bilateral series, PCB chief Shahrayar Khan on Sunday said that Pakistan is ready to host India for a bilateral series this December in UAE.

Part of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) signed by BCCI and PCB in 2014, this series will include three Tests, five ODIs and 2 T20I. PCB is very keen to abide by the MoU which states a India-Pakistan bilateral series for the next eight years.

Khan also said that an India-Pakistan is much bigger than the Ashes.

“The India-Pakistan series is even more important than the Ashes,” he said.

The last time India played Pakistan in an bilateral series was in 2012/13 when Pakistan came to India for two T20I and three ODIs.

The T20I series was tied 1-1 while the ODI series was won by Pakistan 2-1.
