Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) Management Committee Chairman, Najam Sethi, has revealed that they will soon announce a slight tweak in the schedule of the upcoming home series against New Zealand in April.

While speaking in a press conference on Saturday in Lahore, Sethi said that the change will take place due to the general elections in Punjab on April 30.

The Kiwis will arrive in Pakistan to play five T20Is and five ODIs in Karachi, Lahore, and Rawalpindi from April 13 to May 7.

"New Zealand series will take place on its time," said Sethi. "There will be a slight change in the schedule due to general elections in Punjab.
