ISLAMABAD (PEN) : Cricket Australia to set up Pakistan fan zones for November series, This initiative sounds like a fantastic step forward, especially in terms of promoting inclusivity and diversity within the community.

During the series, Pakistan will play three one-day internationals (ODIs) and as many T20 internationals against Australia, with the action kicking off at the iconic Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) on November 4th.
