“There will be four rounds of association stage in Pakistan, trailed by 9 games in Sri Lanka including the two India versus Pakistan game and in the event that a third game in the event that the two groups play last,” Dhumal told PTI.

“There was no such conversation held. Neither India is heading out to Pakistan nor our secretary will go in opposition to reports that have surfaced. Just the timetable was finished,” he said.
