England’s tour of Pakistan starts from October 7, 2024. England Test Cricket Team (Image Credit- Twitter X) Just days after the completion of the recent three-match Test series against Sri Lanka, the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) has announced a 17-member squad for the tour of Pakistan. England’s tour will begin with the first match on October 7, 2024. So in this England team, 33-year-old experienced spinner Jack Leach has returned to the team, who has been out of the England cricket team for a long time. Let us tell you that Leach played his last Test match against India in Hyderabad in January. After this, he was continuously out of the team, but now he has been successful in making a comeback in the team. Apart from this, this team includes most of the same players who have been included in the team against Sri Lanka. However, uncapped Durham bowling all-rounder Brydon Carse and Essex wicketkeeper batsman Jordan Cox have also managed to make it to the 17-member team. Also, this team includes 8 such players who were part of the England team that toured Pakistan in 2022. At that time, England had won the Test series 3-0 by sweeping Pakistan in its own home. So now England will tour Pakistan this time with similar expectations. England’s full squad for the three-match Test series against Pakistan Zak Crawley, Ben Duckett, Jordan Cox, Ollie Pope, Joe Root, Jamie Smith (wicketkeeper), Harry Brook, Ben Stokes (captain), Brydon Curse, Josh Hall, Matthew Potts, Gus Atkinson, Ollie Stone, Chris Woakes, Rehan Ahmed, Jack Leach and Shoaib Bashir. Full schedule of Pakistan vs England Test series 1st Match, 7-11 October- Multan Cricket Stadium, Multan 2nd Match, October 15-19- National Stadium, Karachi 3rd Match, October 24-28- Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium, Rawalpindi
Pakistan-England Test series matches can be shifted to Sri Lanka or UAE, know the big reason?
England to tour Pakistan for a three-match Test series in October PAK vs ENG (Image Credit- Twitter X) Next month, the Pakistan cricket team is scheduled to host England in a 3-match home Test series. However, now some media reports are claiming that due to the construction work currently going on in Pakistan’s cricket stadium, the series may be shifted to Sri Lanka or UAE. It is worth noting that these three Test matches are included in the ongoing World Test Championship (WTC), which is going to be important for England along with Pakistan. The first match of this series will be played from October 7 in Multan, the second Test match in Karachi and the third Test match in Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium. However, now due to the construction work going on in the stadiums of the country, due to hosting the upcoming Champions Trophy 2025, this series between Pakistan and England can be transferred to another country. At the same time, there is little chance that this series can shift to UAE, because the Women’s T20 World Cup 2024 is going to be held in UAE between 3 and 20 October. Moreover, the arrival of England’s Barmy Army fan group is posing another problem, and hosting the matches without crowds is not a feasible option for the PCB. Now it will be interesting to see which venues the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) finalises for these matches. Also, after some time, PCB can share information about the new venues after talking to the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB). Pakistan was defeated by Bangladesh 2-0 It is worth noting that recently Pakistan has faced defeat in the two-match home Test series against Bangladesh. This is the first time in Bangladesh Test cricket history that they have won against Pakistan in a series. It will be interesting to see how the Pak team is going to perform in the upcoming Test series against England after this humiliating defeat?
