The  Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC) president Thilanga Sumathipala while Speaking at the Asian Cricket Council's (ACC) AGM on Saturday "I am keen to take my team to Pakistan."

"We have had our security experts visit and make an assessment, and things look positive with things improving all over the country and especially Lahore being cleared. We have three T20 games coming up against Pakistan in September and we would like to play at least one of those games in Lahore," ESPNcricinfo quoted him as saying.

"I call upon each one of you as members to play your role and give Pakistan the security of your support. There is always a risk - there were two attacks in London during the Champions trophy, but cricket continued under the security assurances if the ICC, so likewise we too must be as accommodating and understanding as possible with our members and extend our fullest support to them as the cricketing family of Asia," he added.
