The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has announced that England will tour Pakistan in 2022 for a seven-match Twenty20 International series and a three-match Test series. England was supposed to play a five-match T20I series and a three-match Test series, but the two cricket boards decided to play two extra T20Is as a consolation for England canceling their brief tour of the country just over a month ago.
