Karachi: PCB chief Shahryar Khan yesterday said that hopes of resumption of bilateral cricketing ties between India and Pakistan with a short series later this month are 'dying' with too little time left to organise the big ticket event.

Shahryar said the Islamabad visit of Indian Foreign Minister Sushma Swaraj did not help in revival of the series, virtually hinting that the proposed series in Sri Lanka may not take place at all. "We were hopeful that Sushma Swaraj's visit will make things better but it did not happen," he was quoted as saying by Waqt News.
