Pakistan were initially planning to hosts Sri Lanka for three Tests, three one-dayers and a twenty20 game. Karachi was to open the series with the twenty game, followed the first game of the ODI series here. Lahore was to host the next two one-dayers and the opening Test, followed by the last two Tests in Multan and Karachi.It is expected now that the two added ODIs will be played in Multan and Faisalabad. The PCB is hurriedly preparing for the series against Sri Lanka that was lined up after Indian cancelled their tour of Pakistan over last month’s terror attacks in Mumbai. The Indians were supposed to play three Tests, five one-dayers and a twenty20 game during January-February.<a href="http://www.thenews.com.pk/daily_detail.asp?id=153286" target="_blank">thenews</a></blockquote>
