England Tour Of Pakistan Schedule, Match Times, & Venues

The England tour of Pakistan 2024 is set to commence from 7th October. This highly anticipated bilateral series will feature 3 test matches. This will be the second bilateral encounter between Pakistan and England in 2024. 

Earlier this year, Pakistan went on a tour of England to play 4 T20I matches right before the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup. Two matches were washed out without a toss, and Pakistan suffered defeat in the other two games.The ENG vs PAK T20I series was won by England. 

The upcoming PAK vs ENG test series will be a part of the ICC World Test Championship 2023-25.

The home team will be looking to win the series as their recent humiliating series loss against Bangladesh has put them in a very vulnerable position. 

On the other hand, England won their last test series against Sri Lanka 2-1, but will still be looking to make a mark by winning the upcoming series against Pakistan.

Let’s dig into the details of the PAK vs ENG full schedule.
