Both boards now will look for another window other than August-September this year,&quot; a Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) official was quoted as saying by a website on Saturday.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Pakistan had initially wanted to feature in a limited-overs series in Zimbabwe to reciprocate the vice-versa tour in May which helped bring international cricket back to Pakistan after six years.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Pakistan moved from ninth place to eighth in the rankings after winning the ODI series against Sri Lanka. Had they lost against Zimbabwe by a margin of 1-2, it could have affected their chances for qualifying for the Champions Trophy.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>(IANS)<\/p>\r\n",
