Karachi: New Zealand Cricket will send a security delegation to Pakistan ahead of their five-match T20I series in April this year.
A reliable source close to the Pakistan Cricket Board confirmed that the delegation would include private security expert Reg Dickason and a senior official of the NZ Players Association Heath Mills.
Dickason has been the regular security consultant for the ICC and other cricket boards when top-tier teams have visited Pakistan in recent years.
Sources divulged that the officials will conduct a thorough review of security arrangements in Islamabad, Rawalpindi, and Lahore.
This evaluation is crucial as New Zealand is slated to embark on a tour to Pakistan in April for a five-match T20I series, with matches scheduled to take place in Lahore and Rawalpindi stadiums.
The bilateral T20I series is anticipated to kick off in the third week of April, with the first match expected to be held on April 18.
