Pakistan wants series against ICC world XI

[Andy]

KARACHI: Pakistan's cricket authorities have proposed a fund-raising One-day series in England next year against a world XI selected by the International Cricket Council (ICC) after failing to attract teams to play in Pakistan because of security fears. The idea was proposed by Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) chairman Ejaz Butt during a meeting with the ICC special task force on Pakistan in Dubai last week, Ramiz Raja, a member of the task force, said. "There was discussion on the need for Pakistan to keep on playing international cricket and find ways to help it raise funds," Raja said, adding that the proposed series would probably be discussed by the ICC's executive board when it met in Dubai early next year. ============================================================ http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/sports/articlelist/4719919.cms

[Indianfan_Hyd]

PCB board officials plunder whatevr money they have got and ask ICC to organize benefit matches...Yeh Kya Chori hai Bhai????

[Params7]

But they pretty much get free money from ICC for hosting WC2011 when they actually don't have to. And they're getting a lot of free money for that.
