Pakistan will play three limited-overs internationals and two Twenty20 matches against New Zealand in the United Arab Emirates next month.

Abu Dhabi will host the ODIs, followed by the Twenty20 internationals at Dubai Sports City Stadium, the Pakistan Cricket Board announced Saturday.

The series was originally scheduled to be held in Pakistan, but was shifted to a neutral venue after New Zealand expressed security concerns over sending its team to Pakistan.

The series begins in Abu Dhabi with a limited-overs international on November 3, while the final Twenty20 match will be played on November 13. Both teams will then travel to New Zealand for three-test matches.
