England men’s cricket team is set to tour Pakistan for seven T20I matches in the second week of September.
According to a report by Samaa, "The seven-match T20I series will be played from September 15 to October 02. Matches are expected to be played in three venues — Multan, Rawalpindi and Lahore,”
Initially, five T20Is were scheduled but former ECB Chief Executive Tom Harrison announced the addition of two more T20Is to make up for cancelling Pakistan’s tour last year.
PCB Chairman Ramiz Raja said that the board will soon announce the final dates for the England tour along with other details such as venue, time.
The England team will travel to Pakistan again following the conclusion of the ICC T20 World Cup to play a 3-match Test series later this year.
Earlier, ECB had cancelled their tour of Pakistan last year following New Zealand’s withdrawal at the eleventh hour citing security concerns.
