Pakistan to host England

By Our Sports Reporter

KARACHI, May 27:

The England cricket team will visit Pakistan twice this summer but only for warm-up games. The English cricketers will first visit Pakistan between Oct 15 and 22 and will then return in April on a one week tour.

In October, the Englishmen will train for Dhaka's ICC Trophy while in April, they will prepare for the Sharjah tournament.

Last year, England played a few practice matches under lights before playing in the Sharjah Cup.

The expenses of Pakistan's tour will be bore by the English Cricket Board (PCB) while PCB will only give them the best possible facilities including fielding a couple of competitive teams for practice games.
