England captain, Joe Root, has also expressed his desire to visit Pakistan to play cricket. The 29-year-old said that it would be a nice change to bat on flat batting pitches in Pakistan after what they have played on in their home summer.

I’d love to go and visit Pakistan. It would be a great opportunity to go and play there personally. Unfortunately, it’s not my decision to make but it looks a wonderful country to go to and play cricket in. The wickets look nice and flat, which will be a nice change to what we have just played on here.

Earlier, England head coach, Chris Silverwood, also said the same, saying he has never been to Pakistan and the batsmen would definitely enjoy batting in friendly conditions.

England last toured Pakistan in 2005-06, however, the PCB is hopeful that the England Cricket Board (ECB) would send its team for a short reciprocal tour ahead of their scheduled visit in 2022.
