The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has reportedly received indication from higher authorities that a bilateral series with India could be on the horizon this year, Daily Jang reported on Wednesday.

An unnamed official of the Board, when asked to comment on cricket diplomacy, at first denied being approached directly by Indian officials but admitted that there have been hints that something could be in the works.

"We've been told to be prepared," the official is quoted as saying by the Urdu daily.

PCB Chairman Ehsan Mani, however, took a more careful line, reiterating that the PCB is not a party in any talks with their Indian counterparts.

Jang further reported that murmurs regarding the revival of the Pak-India bilateral series have been spotted in the Indian media as well.

The publication further notes that the efforts regarding the series are being made by the same party that is reportedly trying to broker a peace accord between the neighbours, whose already frail relations have frayed over the past few years to the extent that they came on the verge of war in 2019.

In case a series comes to fruition, a window of six days for three matches could be identified despite this being a jam-packed calendar year for cricket.

Instead of 3 T20s, we should play one Test match.
Unpredictable Pakistani team may win a lone T20 by fluke. Test match will clearly show the difference in skill levels.

With the current Indian team, I don't think there'll even be any upset.
If bilateral series start, it will be a good opportunity for us to set the records straight.

Good opportunity to hand out more debuts in such a series. India has had an excellent run with debutants recently.
Kohli should be given a rest. Let Hitman lead.

India must be in some real deep $hit

The Pakistani team will likely be thrashed by the Indian team.

Since India is not a safe enough country, Pakistan should host them.

Let Gwadar host the first match followed by Waziristan and then Gilgit.
