He said, “The modalities will be worked out shortly.”

BCCI vice-president Rajeev Shukla said media that Chennai, Calcutta and Delhi will host the One Day Internationals and the Twenty20 [T20s] will be played in Bangalore and Ahmedabad.

In Pakistan, PCB chairman Zaka Ashraf said in Lahore, “The decision is great and we welcome it. It seems that millions of cricket fans have their wishes fulfilled.”

He said, “We are still waiting for a BCCI invitation for the series, but it seems it will surely be held later this year.”
