TORONTO: As we all know, the World XI is scheduled to tour Pakistan and play three T20i’s in Lahore 2 months from now (September 2017). This will be a really delightful opportunity for Pakistani Cricket Fanatics to watch their Heros, and Heros from other international teams in their own city. Since 2015, no team has toured Pakistan. The World XI tour roumor’s were spread 1 day after the successful PSL 2017 final night, and was later confirmed by Najam Sethi (Chairman PSL). As you are done reading that boring paragraph I wrote for no good reason, let me tell you one thing. As you watch the Champions vs the Hero’s, this boringness won’t even be remembered for a minute.
