**Pakistan resolve compensation dispute with ECB**
Karachi, Mar.25 : The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) have resolved a long standing compensation dispute with the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) which threatened to affect their cordial relations.

“Pakistan will now play a Twenty20 Cup match on its tour of England in 2012 to compensate the hosts for the loss of revenues they suffered last year in the Oval Test,” a PCB official told The News.

England had sought compensation of over 800,000 pounds (1.56 million dollars) from the Pakistan board after the August Oval Test was awarded to the home side at tea on the fourth day.

The official said a meeting with ECB officials in London this week had been successful in resolving the dispute.
