Ahead of the Pakistan men’s cricket team’s tour of England, Scotland and Ireland, the British High Commissioner Thomas Drew CMG has said: “I wish Pakistan’s cricket team the very best as it begins a tour of England, Scotland and Ireland. I hope they have an excellent summer of cricket."

This is a historic series, including being Ireland’s first ever Test opponent.

In a statement released on Tuesday, the British High Commissioner said, "I hope it is not too long before I can wish an England cricket team a successful tour of Pakistan.”
