Pakistan v England: Second Test moved from Karachi to Multan

The venue for England’s second Test in Pakistan has been switched less than two weeks before the series will begin.

The second Test was due to be played in Karachi but has now been shifted to Multan, also the venue for the first Test. The third Test in Rawalpindi is unchanged.

The original schedule was announced in July, yet for a number of weeks there has been speculation over a change because of renovation work at the National Stadium in Karachi.

There were suggestions that some or all of the series could be moved out of Pakistan to another country. The United Arab Emirates was mentioned as a possible destination.

Ultimately there is just one change, with back-to-back Tests now in Multan. The first begins on 7 October and the second on 15 October. The final Test commences on 24 October.

England played at both Multan and Rawalpindi on their last Test tour of Pakistan in 2022, when they became the first visiting team to record a 3-0 win in the country.
