Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) Chairman Shaharyar Khan announced Zimbabwe's decision to reporters in Lahore.

“Zimbabwe Cricket Chairman Wilson Manase called me three times to reaffirm that Zimbabwe would be touring Pakistan as per schedule,” said Shaharyar.

Zimbabwe are due to arrive in Pakistan on May 22 to play three One-Day Internationals and two Twenty20 International matches.

Praying for the security of Zimbabwe's cricket team. In my opinion they should not come here. Our country is in a state of war with terrorists. Obviously I am happy that international cricket is returning to Pakistan, but from a neutral point of view, I feel that it is still not safe enough. Hope I am proven wrong.
