Akram Khan said “We might ask PCB to split the Test and T20 internationals. Which series we play first will depend on the security report. If we don’t get the positive signal for some reason then we should discuss with them over playing at a neutral venue but if we get the Positive signal then it is different,”
“The government NOC( No objection certificate) is more important for us than Sri Lanka. Because only then we can think of the tour. We are waiting for a suggestion from the government. We will naturally sit with the cricketers and take their opinion as well.” he added
