The ODI leg of Sri Lanka\u2019s trip to Pakistan comes before the two teams feature in the T20I Tri-series from November 17-29, with Afghanistan as the third team. It will also mark Pakistan playing their first-ever T20I tri-series at home.

This will be Sri Lanka\u2019s first bilateral ODI assignment in Pakistan since 2019, when they toured for a three-match series that Sarfaraz Ahmed\u2019s side won 2-0, after the opening game in Karachi washed out. Sri Lanka last played in Pakistan during the 2023 Men's ODI Asia Cup, when they faced Afghanistan in Lahore.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

The announcement of an ODI series against Sri Lanka comes on the back of an already packed home calendar for Pakistan, which includes two ICC World Test Championship 2025-27 fixtures against current WTC champions South Africa in Lahore (October 12-16) and Rawalpindi (October 20-24).<\/p>\r\n\r\n

Following the Test series, South Africa and Pakistan will meet in three T20Is to be held from October 28 to November 1, with the first game in Rawalpindi and the remaining two matches in Lahore.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

The tour will conclude with three ODIs to be played at Faisalabad\u2019s Iqbal Stadium from November 4-8. The ground will host an ODI game after 17 years, after having last staged one in April 2008 when Pakistan defeated Bangladesh by seven wickets.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
