Match Preview
Pakistan will take on England in the first Test of a three-match series on October 7 at the Multan Cricket Stadium. Pakistan is under pressure after a tough run of form, recently losing 0-2 to Bangladesh at home and suffering a 0-3 clean-sweep against Australia away. They have now gone 1338 days without a Test win on home soil, making this series crucial for them to bounce back.
England, on the other hand, enters the series in excellent form. They won their last two home Test series, beating Sri Lanka 2-1 and West Indies 3-0. England will look to continue their winning momentum and repeat their dominant 2022 performance, when they defeated Pakistan in Pakistan.

Pitch Report
At Multan Cricket Stadium, the pitch typically offers favorable conditions for batters, especially in the early stages of the game. The surface allows for free stroke play, making it a good venue for posting high scores.
However, as the game progresses, spinners and pacers tend to find some assistance, with spinners especially coming into play later in the match as the pitch wears down.
Captains winning the toss often prefer to bat first to take advantage of the fresh conditions, as the pitch may become trickier to navigate in the second innings.
