Rawalpindi is set to host the first Test match between England and Pakistan after 17 long years, confirmed by PCB.
Alternative arrangements were being assessed by the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) due to ongoing political unrest following the shooting of former Prime Minister and cricket great Imran Khan.
Several media reports stated that the venue could be changed but the PCB has ended all speculations. After Rawalpindi, the remaining two games will be played in Multan and Karachi, respectively.
