The England cricket team touched down in Pakistan late Tuesday, ahead of their much-anticipated Test series against the hosts. The squad arrived at Multan International Airport and will rest for two days before beginning practice on Friday.
Led by all-rounder and captain Ben Stokes, England will face Pakistan in the first Test at the Multan Cricket Stadium on October 7. The second Test, also in Multan, is set for October 15, with the final match of the series taking place in Rawalpindi on October 24.
This marks England’s first Test series in Pakistan since 2005. The series is expected to be a competitive one, as both teams aim to strengthen their standings in the World Test Championship.
England’s squad includes a blend of experienced players and rising talent, eager to secure a series victory. Meanwhile, Pakistan, coming off a challenging year, is determined to defend their home ground and claim a much-needed series win.
