“Getting cricket back on would be brilliant for us,” said the ECB Chairman.
“We should definitely tour Pakistan,” he further said, pointing out that if it’s at all safe to do. The current matches in Pakistan opened the door for future tours to the country, through, England had played last two away tours against Pakistan in UAE.
