Federal Information Minister Fawad Chaudhry announced that British Envoy has assured the England Cricket team will be touring Pakistan for a complete test series in October 2022. This is a huge achievement for Pakistan who has slowly gathered nations to tour their nation for limited-overs series or test series after a long time.

The Sri Lankan cricket team was attacked on the bus by terrorists on the 2009 tour to Pakistan and countries have been reluctant to visit the nation ever since that. UAE has been the preferred home nation for Pakistan after 2009. However, the nation has grown large in terms of security, and several nations have started visiting Pakistan with South Africa being the latest.
