Islamabad, Sep 21: The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has revised the schedule for the three ICC World Test Championship matches between Pakistan and England, set to take place in October 2024.
The second Test, originally scheduled at Karachi’s National Bank Stadium from October 15-19, has been relocated to the Multan Cricket Stadium due to renovation work at the Karachi venue. The changes are in preparation for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025, which will also feature matches in Lahore and Rawalpindi.
The revised schedule is as follows:
- First Test: October 7-11 in Multan
- Second Test: October 15-19 in Multan
- Third Test: October 24-28 in Rawalpindi
Both the Pakistan and England cricket teams will assemble in Multan on October 2. The PCB is excited to welcome England back to Pakistan and aims to provide a competitive Test series while ensuring fans enjoy the event.
Additionally, the PCB has issued No Objection Certificates (NOCs) for several Pakistani cricketers participating in various international leagues, including the Caribbean Premier League (CPL), Minor Cricket League, Zim Afro T10, and Big Bash League (BBL).
Players such as Fakhar Zaman, Azam Khan, and Imad Wasim are among those cleared for overseas participation.
