Malaysian board postpones Pakistan-Sri Lanka series

The Malaysian Cricket Association (MCA) has postponed a three-match one-day international series between Pakistan and Sri Lanka, that had been scheduled to be played in Kuala Lampur at the end of May. The postponement has come about because of the MCA's inability to find a sponsor for the series.

Tunku Imran, the MCA's president, said: "After consultation with Pakistan and Sri Lankan officials, the Malaysian Challenge Cup has been postponed but we hope to reschedule it in early November this year. I am appreciative of the fact that both boards continue to be committed to playing each other in Malaysia later this year."

Imran said that he hoped that the ICC, the Asia Cricket Council and the top cricket-playing nations of the world would continue to support the game in Malaysia.
