India to host Pakistan in December

Pakistan will play three ODIs and two Twenty20 matches during their first tour of India for five years this December.

The Indian cricket board has confirmed that a Pakistan team will tour the country in December.

A Pakistani side have not played in India since 2008 with the terrorist attacks in Mumbai being the main cause for the lack of matches between the two nations after a militant group from Pakistan was blamed for the attack.

A statement from the Board of Control for Cricket in India said: "It was decided to resume cricketing ties with Pakistan by inviting the Pakistan cricket team for a short series in December 2012-January 2013."

India will host Pakistan for three one-day internationals and two Twenty20 matches.
