Pakistan to Host Sri Lanka in Rawalpindi for ODI Series

Pakistan is preparing for a major cricketing event. Sri Lanka will return for a three-match ODI series in November 2025, with all games set to be played at Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium.

Return After Six Years

Pakistan last hosted Sri Lanka in 2019. Now, with Pakistan to host Sri Lanka again in 2025, the series marks another step in the revival of international cricket in the country.

The PCB has confirmed the ODIs will be played on November 11, 13, and 15, 2025, all at Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium — marking the return of top-level ODIs to the city.

Why Rawalpindi?

Rawalpindi has become one of the most reliable cricket venues in Pakistan. The stadium is known for its energetic atmosphere and memorable matches.

By keeping all three games in one city, the series is expected to feel like a week-long cricket celebration.

What’s Coming Next

Right after this ODI series, Pakistan will host its first-ever T20I tri-series featuring Sri Lanka and Afghanistan.

That tournament is scheduled from November 17 to 29, 2025, with matches spread across Rawalpindi and Lahore.

Why This Series Matters

For Pakistan, hosting Sri Lanka again is another step in showing the world that international cricket has fully returned.

For Sri Lanka, it’s an opportunity to compete in a historic venue and strengthen cricket ties with Pakistan.

Final Thoughts

November is shaping up to be a packed cricket month. Rawalpindi will stage three ODIs in a row, followed by an exciting T20I tri-series.

Mark the dates: November 11, 13, and 15, 2025 — Pakistan vs. Sri Lanka, all in Rawalpindi.
