ISLAMABAD - Pakistan will play at least 29 Tests, 38 ODIs and 46 T20Is between World Cup 2019 and World Cup 2023, according to the Future Tour Programme (FTP) released by International Cricket Council (ICC). The matches scheduled for tournaments including Asia Cup and ICC events aren’t included in these calculations.
They begin their World Test Championship in familiar style in October 2019: with a two-Test series at home against Sri Lanka. Those two Tests will be part of 40 they play in this new FTP (including three that they’ve already played in Ireland and England).
They don’t, of course, have a single series against India but another complicated geopolitical relationship with a neighbour – Afghanistan – will be given an airing – they play three ODIs in Afghanistan’s home ground in September 2021 as part of the ODI league.
The green shirts play home Test games against Australia (2018-19), New Zealand (2018-19), Sri Lanka (2019-20), Bangladesh (2019-2020), South Africa (2020-2021), New Zealand (2021-2022), West Indies (2021-2022), Australia (2021-2022), England (2022-2023) and New Zealand (2022-2023). However, the venues of these matches are subject to confirmation.
