England will tour Pakistan for the first time in 17 years in September to play seven T20Is and three Tests, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) announced on Tuesday.
England withdrew their tour of Pakistan last year after New Zealand pulled out of the South Asian country due to security concerns.
England will play seven T20 Internationals in Karachi and Lahore in the first leg of their tour from September 20.
England will return to play three Tests in December after the Twenty20 World Cup in Australia, the PCB said in a statement.
“We demonstrated our event planning and operational skills in the highly successful series against Australia in March/April and I am confident that we will be able to repeat that when England visit us for the first time since 2005. ” said Zakir Khan, PCB’s director of international cricket.
