The first match of the three-Test series between Pakistan and England is to be played in Rawalpindi from Thursday (December 1).
England players are not well
The England cricket team has reached Pakistan after 17 years. The team has to play a three-Test series here. The series is to start from Thursday i.e. December 1 in Rawalpindi. However, if Pakistani media reports are to be believed then the series is unlikely to start on time. England players who reached Pakistan have fallen ill. It is believed that it can have an effect on the series as well.
The health of England players is not good. Till now it is not clear what has happened to him but it has definitely been said that the player is in the grip of something viral. Captain Ben Stokes is also included in the players who have been infected. The condition of the team has worsened. This is the reason why only 5 players were able to reach the practice session a day before the match. Harry Brook, Jack Crawley, Keaton Jennings, Ollie Pope and Joe Root arrived for training at the Pindi Cricket Stadium on Wednesday. The rest of the team members stayed in the hotel.
Rawalpindi test may be postponed
The Cricket Board of England does not want to put its players in trouble. That’s why it is probably being said to postpone the Ravpindi test. It is being claimed in media reports of Pakistan that the Pakistan and England Cricket Boards are in talks to start the Rawalpindi Test after a delay of 24 hours. Falling sick of the players is the main reason for this. Captain Ben Stokes himself is also in the grip of the virus.
