According to recent reports, England's men's team is set to tour Pakistan for a seven-match T20I series ahead of the impending T20 World Cup 2022.

It is worth mentioning that England and Pakistan were originally scheduled to compete in a five-match series. The England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) had later approved two additional T20Is.
ECB had backed out from their Pakistan tour last year at the last minute, citing players experiencing bubble fatigue as the reason. While the English side will tour Pakistan in September for the T20 games, they are also expected to return to the Asian nation for a three-match Test series after the T20 World Cup 2022.
