Second game to be played in MultanVisitors may rest Jofra Archer due to busy schedule
The schedule for England’s Test series in Pakistan has finally been confirmed, just 17 days before play gets under way, with the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) deciding to move only the second game, which, like the first, will now be played in Multan.
The original schedule was announced precisely 11 weeks ago in July, with the first Test in Multan, the second in Karachi and the third in Rawalpindi. But after it became clear that major renovation work on the National Bank Stadium in Karachi, being undertaken with February’s Champions Trophy in mind, would not be completed in time, various options were considered.
