Four limited-overs matches between Pakistan and Australia have been moved to Lahore amid political tensions in Rawalpindi, as the Pakistan Prime Minister is set to face a no-confidence in the coming week.
Both countries' cricket boards confirmed this on Saturday.
Three one-day internationals (ODI) and a one-off Twenty20 international will now be staged at the Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore after the venue hosts the third test of a three-match series from Monday.
Pakistan's interior minister Sheikh Rashid Ahmed told local media on Friday that the matches would be played in Lahore because of the political situation in the country's capital and Rawalpindi's twin city Islamabad.
Several lawmakers from prime minister Imran Khan's ruling party withdrew their support for him on Thursday ahead of a no-confidence vote.
Both the ruling party and the opposition have called for protest sit-in rallies outside the parliament in Islamabad ahead of the voting, which analysts say has strengthened the prospect of clashes and violence.
Australia is currently on their first tour of Pakistan in 24 years. The first two tests between the teams, in Rawalpindi and Karachi, ended in draws.
The ODIs are scheduled to be held on March 29, March 31 and April 2, while the T20I will be played on April 4.
