England's tour of Pakistan canceled
The ECB's decision to pull out of their planned October matches in Rawalpindi follows the abandonment of New Zealand's tour to Pakistan.

An ECB statement read: "The ECB Board convened this weekend to discuss these extra England Women's and Men's games in Pakistan and we can confirm that the Board has reluctantly decided to withdraw both teams from the October trip.
