India plans to take part in tri-series

Kolkata Nov.19 India is planning to take part in a triangular cricket series, also featuring arch rival Pakistan and Australia, to be held in Europe before the Champions Trophy next year.

Cricket Board president Jagmohan Dalmiya said the venue and the dates of the proposed tri-series have not yet been finalised.

``Nothing has been finalised yet. India will be going to Pakistan in Febraury and then also play in the Asia Cup.

``If everything goes right then we plan to have a tri-series between India, Pakistan and Australia,'' Dalmiya told Doordarshan during the tri-series final here.

``The tournament could be held some where in Europe or if we get the permission in United Kingdom to acclimatise for the Champions Trophy.''

The Champions Trophy is to be held in England in September next year.
