India's tour to Pakistan will start on March 1, and will include three Tests and five one-day internationals. Jagmohan Dalmiya, president of the Indian board, confirmed this after a working committee meeting of the board in Kolkata. "The detailed itinerary is still in the drawing board," he said, according to a report by Press Trust of India. "We are talking to Pakistan board officials on this."
Chalking out the Indian team's programme for the next few months, Dalmiya informed that the Pakistan series will be followed by a tour to Bangladesh for two Tests and three ODIs. Then, after resting for a couple of months, the players will be off for the Asia Cup in July, before taking part in a one-day triangular series involving Australia and Pakistan in August. "The exact venue of the triseries is yet to be finalised," said Dalmiya. "It will be either in Scotland, Ireland or Holland."
India are also scheduled to play three one-dayers in England in September just before the Champions Trophy, which starts on September 10.
