While explaining the development, Zakir Khan, PCB’s director of international cricket in a statement said, “England is one of the top-ranked T20I teams and them playing the shortest format in the lead up to the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup in Pakistan will not only help the team management to finalize their preparations, but will also set the tone for December’s three-Test series.
