India mulling dates, venues proposed

Published December 12, 2003

KOLKATA, Dec 11: India’s cricket board said on Thursday it is “actively considering” the dates and venues proposed by Pakistan for the first visit of an Indian national team in 13 years.

“We have received a proposal from the Pakistan Cricket Board and we are discussing among ourselves the proposed itinerary,” Jagmohan Dalmiya, president of the Board of Control for Cricket in India, told reporters.

The PCB has suggested the Indian team visit from Feb 26-April 15 to play three Tests and seven One-day Internationals.

“I can only say that the details are being worked out and we are actively considering the PCB proposal,” Dalmiya said.
