Talking about Sri Lanka’s 2019 Tour of Pakistan, the series will start with three ODIs and will be followed by as many T20Is. The first ODI will be played on September 27 in Karachi. The series has great relevance as Pakistan soil will witness an ODI match after almost a decade. Sri Lanka’s last tour in Pakistan turned out to be an unforgettable experience for the wrong reasons after they got attacked by terrorists in Lahore. The whole chapter came at a heavy price for Pakistan since it put an end to international cricket in the country. However, Sri Lankan team's visit to Pakistan again in 2019 will hopefully help put the bad memories of the attack behind.
