The Pakistan cricket team is set to host Sri Lanka and Zimbabwe for a seven-match T20I tri-nation series from Tuesday, November 18 onwards at home. The series will also serve as a crucial dress rehearsal for each of the three participating teams ahead of next year’s 2026 ICC Men’s T20 World Cup in India and Sri Lanka.
The three teams have already assembled in Rawalpindi prior to the series-opener, with hosts Pakistan and Sri Lanka recently spending a week in the city to start off the tour with a three-match ODI series against each other. As all three sides brace themselves for the upcoming Pakistan T20I tri-series 2025, here is a look at all the important information regarding the upcoming competition.
How many teams will participate in Pakistan T20I Tri-Series 2025?
Three teams will feature in the Pakistan T20I Tri-Series 2025, namely hosts Pakistan and the visiting Sri Lanka and Zimbabwe teams, thus completing the expected tri-nation lineup for the competition. It is worth noting that Afghanistan was originally intended to be the third team of the series, before the Afghanistan Cricket Board (ACB) pulled out citing the nation’s prevailing cross-border tensions with Pakistan.

Where to watch Pakistan T20I Tri-Series 2025 on OTT?
Fans in India will not be able to catch the Pakistan T20I tri-series 2025 through live streaming on any OTT platform in the country.
There is also no live broadcasting partner for the Pakistan T20I tri-series 2025 in India. However, the Sports TV YouTube channel will likely cover the entire tri-series considering it also live streamed the Pakistan vs Sri Lanka ODI series earlier this month.
