The UAE is likely to host the one-day international series between Pakistan and New Zealand from November to December.

In this connection Ijaz Butt, Chairman Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB), held a meeting with the officials in Dubai, to sort out the terms and conditions for the five-match series at Dubai Sports City.

Matches shall also be played at the Shaikh Zayed Cricket Stadium in Abu Dhabi.

New Zealand's tour to Pakistan in 2008 was cancelled due to the security reasons, and now New Zealand shall host the three-Test series.

Meanwhile, PCB is keen to host the one-day series in the UAE. Earlier, the Pakistan team had played three matches and a Twenty20 game against Australia in the UAE.

In case UAE fails to host the series, the other venues under consideration for hosting the series are Malaysia and the United States.

However, hosting the series in the United States is going to be difficult, as it would be difficult to obtain visas for the players and officials at a short notice.
