The Pakistan Cricket Board has postponed a tour to Zimbabwe in December in anticipation of a bilateral one-day series against India.

A senior official of the board told Reuters that under the future tour programme of the International Cricket Council, Pakistan were due to visit Zimbabwe for a test and one-day series in December.

"But since it is too close to the series against India we have informed the Zimbabwe authorities the tour should be held sometime next year," the official said.

Pakistan have been invited by the Indian board to play three one-day internationals and two T20 matches in December.

Bilateral cricket between the nuclear-armed neighbours were snapped after the 2008 Mumbai attacks in which 166 people were killed. India blame Pakistan-based militants for the incident.

India and Pakistan have fought three wars in the past 65 years, and the already fragile relations were further strained when gunmen attacked two upmarket hotels, a busy railway terminal and a fashionable cafe in Mumbai.

The last series between the two sides was Pakistan's tour of India in 2007 although Pakistan travelled to India to play the 50-over World Cup semi-final in Mohali last year.

Thanks for sharing the nice piece of content with us. I am also a big fond of traveling & now my aim is to travel dubai for different experiences i.e yacht offroadadventurefun.com/yacht-tours/. Actually you can say its my passion to explore all the world & see the beauty of nature with my own eyes. However, most of the negative consequences of the impact of tourism can be avoided through comprehensive planning and the introduction of modern methods of managing this process (tight control over the use of territories, resources, assessment of elements of the tourist offer, etc.). Travel decisions are centered around the choice of a tourist destination. The variety of tourist motives includes different types of tourist travel and offers numerous opportunities for the emergence of new tourist destinations. Diversification of lifestyles creates a rich spectrum of travel motives, which, in turn, determines the emergence of new tourist destinations. Once again thanks for sharing the nice piece of stuff with us.
