A four-member team of the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) has completed their review of the security among other arrangements in Pakistan before the Three Lions make their visit to the country for playing a seven-match T20I series against the Men in Green in September and a Test series post the T20 World Cup.

The delegation has now left Pakistan after expressing their satisfaction regarding the arrangements. The four-member team visited four cities in Pakistan including Karachi, Lahore, Multan, and Islamabad. The team inspected cities’ airports, routes, and cricket stadiums during their one-week visit. The delegation was also briefed by Pakistan’s high-level government organizations and the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) officials.

The delegation will now submit its status report to ECB

After completing its visit, the four-member team will now submit its report to the ECB, and the dates for the T20I series and the Test series are expected to be finalized after the review.

As per reports, the T20I series is expected to be played in Lahore and Karachi, while the Test matches are expected to be held in three different venues with one of the venues expected to be Multan Cricket Stadium. At present, Pakistan are taking on Sri Lanka in a Test series in Sri Lanka.

The visitors won the first Test match after getting a good fight from the home team and are currently playing the second Test match. Talking about England, the Three Lions are playing against South Africa in a three-match ODI series. The home team lost the first ODI fixture by a big margin but made a resounding comeback in the second fixture as they bundled out the Proteas side under the 100-run mark.

Talking about the third match, South Africa after winning the toss, decided to have a bat first and have crossed the 150-run mark after losing two wickets. Both teams will be looking to win the final match and clinch the series and as of now, the venue is experiencing a rain delay.
