However, SLC spokesman Brian Thomas has confirmed that the series, which is hosted by the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB), goes as planned.
Upali Dharmadasa, SLC interim committee chairman, said the committee will reflect on the scene before completion, leaving those responsible for the PCBs, which had already begun preparations to host the show, surprised.
"Sri Lanka will play home series in Pakistan in the UAE," said Thomas Tribune The Express. "The series will take place as planned, and SLC does not intend to propose a change of venue. "
The kit includes three Tests, five one-day internationals and Twenty20 which starts on October 15.
Sharjah yet to get approval
Meanwhile, Sharjah cricket stadium, which has not hosted an international top flight in a few years, is still in the approval of the PCB as a place for the next round.
