PCB Chief Operating Officer Salman Naseer said, 'Sports is not just about winning and losing, it is also a game of brotherhood. I am confident that more training sessions in Lahore will give the players a chance to showcase their best skills and talent on the big stage. We are happy that BCB has accepted our proposal and we are looking forward to welcoming the Bangladesh men's cricket team in Lahore on August 13.
