The Pakistan Cricket Board is planning to launch a joint bid for five to six ICC events along with its counterpart from the UAE, according to PCB chairman Ehsan Mani.
The PCB is going to bid for events in the cycle that runs from 2023 to 2031, hoping to win at least one or two of those.
"We had expressed an interest to host five to six events and, frankly, it is likely we won't be getting more than one or two. But we also thought out of the box to bid jointly with another country," Mani said in a PCB podcast.
"I have already begun speaking with the Emirates Cricket Board for a team-up to increase the chances of hosting some of it together but, again, it needs cooperation.
"There are a few events with 16 games and then there are events with 30-40 games, so depending on the scale, the workload can be divided between us."
"We intend to make a very serious expression of our interest on this matter and we will be getting full government support as well."
