This change was made due to some renovation work going on at the Karachi stadium
A Change In Plans
A decision that was expected on the cards has finally happened now as the 2nd test match between Pakistan vs England will now be played in Multan instead of Karachi. The tour is scheduled to begin on October 7 & last until October 28.
The second test match between Pakistan vs England was scheduled to be played from October 15-19. The second test match will take effect on the very dates but now at the Multan Cricket Stadium.
With the construction in the Karachi stadium, the PCB has decided to move the second Pakistan vs England Test match to Multan.
