Pakistan has agreed to host Bangladesh for three Twenty20s instead of five.

The schedule was revised by the Pakistan Cricket Board on Tuesday after chairman Mohsin Naqvi met with Bangladesh counterparts in Dubai.

Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore will host all three games this month, with the dates to be determined.


Last month, both countries agreed to play five T20s from May 25-June 3 with Faisalabad hosting the first two.
