PCB's tweet comes after the SLC issued a statement on Wednesday seeking government assistance to a reassessment of security in Pakistan.
"Sri Lanka Cricket today sought the assistance of the Sri Lankan government to conduct a 'Reassessment' of the security situation in Pakistan ahead of the national team's planned tour to Pakistan," SLC said in a statement.
"The decision was taken following a warning the SLC received from the Prime Minister's Office sent via the Ministry of Telecommunication, Foreign Employment and Sports," the statement added.
Sri Lanka are scheduled to tour Pakistan for a three-match ODI series and three-match T20I series, starting from September 27.
SLC said that the Prime Minister's Office received information of a possible 'terrorist threat' to the team.
