PCB in negotiations with Zimbabwe over Pak tour in 2015

The Zimbabwean cricket team has reportedly expressed an interest in touring Pakistan later this year, and the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) is in negotiations with the African side.

Pakistan's team manager Naved Akram Cheema said that he has met with the chief executive of the Zimbabwe cricket union and insisted that they discussed the revival of international cricket in Pakistan.

Cheema claimed that Zimbabwe's chief executive told him that they were interested in a reciprocal series with the African nation wanting to send a team in May, Sport24 reported.

No Test side has toured Pakistan since March, 2009 when militants attacked the Sri Lankan team in Lahore. Six Pakistani policemen were killed and some of the visiting players were wounded during the attack.

Cheema, who has served as chief secretary of the Punjab province, said that it would not be a mistake to invite any team to play in Pakistan and that the security situation was now much better. He claimed that things are under control and he doesn't believe that they would have any security situation which can cause them embarrassment if teams are invited to Pakistan.
