England To Host Pakistan Series

England is to host a cricket series between Pakistan and Australia next year who will contest two Twenty20 internationals and two Tests.

With continuing concern over safety in Pakistan, the matches in England will take place between 5th-25th July next year.

A busy summer of internationals will begin with England playing Bangladesh in two Tests and three one-day matches.

England then face Australia in five one-day internationals before taking on Pakistan in all three formats.

There will be four England-Pakistan Tests, plus five one-day and two Twenty20 matches.

The England Lions team will play a series of one-day internationals against A teams from New Zealand and India during July.
