After 17 years, England is going to play a test on the soil of Pakistan
Hosts Pakistan are starting the three-match Test series against England at home.
After 17 long years, the Englishmen are coming to play Tests on the soil of
Pakistan. The first test of the series will start in Rawalpindi on Thursday at
11 a.m. Bangladesh time. England last toured Pakistan in November 2005. The two
teams played a three-test and five-ODI series during that tour. Pakistan won the
Test series 2-0 and the ODI series 3-2. England, which won the T20 World Cup
last month, did not tour Pakistan due to security concerns. After 2005, the
British visited Pakistan for the first time in September of this year. The
visiting England team won the seven-match Twenty20 series 4-3 before the World
Cup. This series is part of the World Test Championship. Pakistan still has hope
of playing in the final. That's why you have to win your own matches. Along with
that, Paks have to expect the defeat of the teams that are currently at the top
of the points table. England has no chance. Australia tops the table with 70
percent of the points in 10 matches. Pakistan is fifth in the table after nine
games, with 51.85 percent of the points. England is seventh in the table with
38.60 percent of the points after 19 matches.
