The third and final Test will take place in Birmingham from September 9. The result of the first two matches could make the Birmingham Test particularly significant in determining the overall outcome of the series.
Pakistan to Play Warm-Up Match
Before entering the three-Test contest, Pakistan will have an opportunity to adjust to local conditions through a four-day warm-up fixture against the Select XI.
The practice match is scheduled to be played from August 12 to 15. The game will allow the Pakistani players to gain valuable match practice and assess the conditions ahead of the first Test.

With the squad now in England, attention will turn toward preparations for the opening Test in Leeds. The Pakistan side will aim to make effective use of the practice match and enter the series with confidence.
The three-match series is set to be an important test of Pakistan’s ability to adapt to England’s conditions, while the hosts will also look to capitalize on home advantage throughout the tour.
