England will return to Pakistan in 2021 for the first time since 2005 and the Birmingham-born chief executive of the Pakistan Cricket Board has been at the forefront of negotiations
Wasim Khan predicts a huge two years for Pakistan, with the return of a touring England side for the first time in 16 years among the highlights of a leap towards a full schedule of international cricket in the country.
As the chief executive of the Pakistan Cricket Board, he has been at the forefront of negotiations between the PCB and the England and Wales Cricket Board to secure England’s first visit since 2005. In 2021 and 2022, as well as England, Pakistan will also host other major tours as something akin to normality descends on this cricket-loving country after more than a decade in the wilderness following the 2009 attack on the Sri Lanka team bus in Lahore.
