The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has rescheduled U19 and Emerging Women’s trials in Lahore due to heavy monsoon rain predictions.
Trials, part of PCB’s Talent Hunt Programme, will take place at the LCCA Ground on Thursday, September 4.
Earlier, these trials were set for Monday, August 25, but the forecast of persistent rains in the city has forced a change in the itinerary.
A similar situation had earlier occurred in Karachi. The PCB rescheduled the Talent Hunt trials for Women’s U19 and Emerging Cricketers in Karachi for Tuesday, September 2, 2025, at the Hanif Mohammad High-Performance Centre.
The persistent rain caused PCB to change the trial date from Thursday, August 21 to September 2. The PCB has shared the updated schedule after the changes to dates for Lahore and Karachi.

Rawalpindi/Islamabad – 26 August – Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium
