LAHORE (92 News) – Pakistan Under-19 cricket team’s tour to Sri Lanka has been called off due to attacks in SriLanka on Easter Day. The decision has been taken due to the security situation that has emerged after deadly attack on Sri Lanka that killed more than 300 people. The Pakistan team was set to leave for Colombo on April 30, with the first game scheduled for May 3 in Galle. Pakistan was scheduled to play two four-day matches and three one-day matches in Galle and Hambantota. The team’s next assignment is a tour of South Africa in June-July, as part of their build-up to next year’s Under-19 World Cup, also in South Africa.
