England’s first Test tour of Pakistan since 2005 is expected to kick-off tomorrow, with the 1st of the three tests to be held at Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium. The remaining tests will be held at Multan and Karachi respectively, and the series will reach conclusion on 21 December. This article discusses Live Telecast details of the Pakistan vs England Test series in India.
Notably, the 1st test of the series (that starts December 1) is under the threat of being postponed after a stomach bug struck down a huge chunk of the visiting team.
Skipper Ben Stokes and 13 other English players have been experiencing vomiting and diarrhoea for a couple of days now, and it’ll be a challenge for the Three Lions to field 11 players tomorrow onwards. Just 5 ENG players– Harry Brook, Zak Crawley, Joe Root, Ollie Pope, and Keaton Jennings took part in the latest training session at Rawalpindi.
