Babar Azam Shares His Feeling For Captaining Pakistan At Home For The First Time

By IANS News January 25, 2021 • 21:47 PM View: 1097

Pakistan will host South Africa in a Test match at home for the first time in 13 years when their two-Test series commences here on Tuesday.

Pakistan could not host an international team between 2009 and 2015 after the deadly attack on the Sri Lankan team in 2009, and although cricket has been played in the country over the past few years, there had been no Test cricket up until late last year when Sri Lanka toured there.
