Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) on Friday announced the revised schedule for the three-match Test series between Pakistan and England from October 7 to 28.
The second Test, which was originally planned at the National Bank Stadium in Karachi from October 15 to 19, has now moved to the Multan Cricket Stadium, where the first Test will take place from October 7 to 11.
The third Test will take place from October 24 to 28 at the Pindi Cricket Stadium, Rawalpindi.
The England men’s cricket team will arrive in Multan on October 2, while the Pakistan men’s cricket team will also assemble in Multan on the same day.
The match has been shifted from Karachi to Multan as the National Bank Stadium is undergoing a major facelift for next year’s ICC Champions Trophy 2025, which will also be played at Lahore’s Gaddafi Stadium and Rawalpindi’s Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium.
