Ahsraf invited to Australia

Dubai: Cricket Australia Chairman Creagh O’Connor has invited his Pakistani counterpart Nasim Ahsraf to discuss re-scheduling of the Australian team’s Pakistan tour, which was put-off due to security concerns earlier this month.

The duo is currently in Dubai to attend the ICC Board meeting and took the opportunity to initiate discussions on the matter.

“It is clear from our initial discussion here in Dubai that we need to sit down and go through the technical issues on finding new dates with a fine tooth comb.

“To that end, I have suggested we meet in Melbourne as soon as possible and we will organise dates once the current ICC meetings are finalised,” Connor said in a statement.

The CA Chairman, while reiterating their commitments to the tour of struggling subcontinent nation, said Ashraf’s trip would help him understand Australia’s security concerns. — PTI
