From 3rd July to 7th September.
Where both the teams will be facing each other in ten matches in total to divide, four test matches and five ODI matches and 1 T20 series match. Pakistan later will be battling with Ireland. Pakistan has hit depths. Pakistan has made a lot of amendments in their squad management. They welcomed a new captain for T20s. On the contrary Mickey Arthur, former South African has taken the wheel as head coach of the team. This will be the first assignment to Pakistan team ever.
On the other hand England on his home ground flaming fires, especially on long formats. They are clone to continue their short formats of past in future against Asian nation.
Pakistani players faced an adverse experience last time on England’s tour in 2010. The three most important stars their team, Salman butts, Muhammad Amir and Muhammad Asif were sidelined from cricket when their spot fixing scandal was highlighted. Out of which Amir has made his comeback in the team after 5 year ban, he confessed his crime and apologized for it.
Let’s get back to the tour; Pakistan lost the series in 2010 from England. England won the game by a margin of 3-1. Both T20 and ODIs went in favor of team England. They won by 3-2 and 2-0 margin respectively. They say every dog has its day, don’t lose hope. The 2010 tour was a forgettable one, Asian team is eager to make a fresh start and give tough rivalry to their hosts.
England will look forward to continuing winning their test after beating Sri Lanka 2-0 ultimately in a longer format. Chris Woakes, Moeen Ali and Jonny Bairstow were the limelight stars for their team England. And expect the same performance from their team in home ground, especially.Â
Alastair Cook peers forward to make a fresh start and keep his performance constant. He has accomplished 10,000 runs up till now in test matches. Then we have James Anderson, Stuart Broad and Steve Finn will surely handle all the trouble in pace department, at least the team has high hopes for them and so their fans.
Whereas Pakistani team is concerned, new talent in the team has a tremendous chance to make marks in the history and prove themselves. Talk about consistency, Misbah UL Haq and Younis Khan have the wheel as they the most senior and experienced players in the team right now and obviously under pressure because a lot of trust and expectations are kept in their faith.
The latest update from this tour is that Pakistan has immensely defeated England by 75 runs in 1st test after 20 years and England defeated Pakistan by 330 runs, Let’s keep our fingers crossed and wish the best team to win.
