The year 2020 was challenging for people from all walks of life due to the COVID-19 outbreak. It wasn’t any different for sportsmen and athletes, as all sports activities remained suspended for the most part of the year.
Many international events, including the Asia Cup T20 and World T20, were canceled, schedules were tossed out of the windows, and ever-changing health protocols and lack of interest from sponsors made tours unfeasible. And those that followed the schedule despite all financial and operational challenges were marred with players opting out due to the pandemic.
With hopes that the next year will not be a recap of 2021, Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has announced the complete schedule of the Pakistan cricket team for 2021. Not to mention that it’s subject to change given COVID-related health emergencies.
