Islamabad, Sept 8: Pakistan will play England in the United Arab Emirates early next year in a series of test and one-day matches.
Dubai will host two test matches while a third will be played in Abu Dhabi. Both cities will also host four one-day internationals and three Twenty20 games between the two countries in January and February.
The series begins in Dubai with a test match on Jan. 17 and ends on Feb. 27 when Abu Dhabi hosts the third Twenty20 game.
Pakistan has not hosted any major international cricket team since gunmen attacked the Sri Lanka team bus in Lahore in 2009 that killed six police officials and a van driver.
Pakistan will also play its test and ODI series against Sri Lanka in UAE next month. AP
