FAISALABAD: The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has developed a plan to host international cricket at Iqbal Stadium in Faisalabad. The PCB is preparing to hold one of England’s Test matches in Faisalabad during England’s tour in Karachi.

However, according to new sources, the revised plan now includes hosting the first Test at Multan Cricket Stadium, the second Test in Faisalabad, and the third Test in Rawalpindi, replacing Karachi with Faisalabad.
