LAHORE: The Pakistan team will leave for ‘bio-secure’ England tour on June 28 via chartered plane.
According to details, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) requested the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) to bring back their departure date so that the players get ample time there to train before the Test series starts.
Now, the ECB has approved the request and will send their chartered plane, part of their commitment of bio-secure arrangements, in Pakistan on June 26. The squad of 29 players and 14 officials will leave the country on June 28.
