ENG vs PAK 2020: Michael Vaughan lauds Pakistan as cricket venue

Former England captain Michael Vaughan recently interacted on the TMS Podcast. During the interaction, the cricketer-turned-commentator talked about the much-awaited ENG vs PAK 2020 contests and spoke about the prospects of the return of international cricket in Pakistan. Michael Vaughan said that Pakistan is a great place for playing cricket and he would love to go back there to watch the England team in action someday.

Michael Vaughan added that Pakistan fans are “obsessive” about the game and it is a nation which “adores” cricket. He claimed that children can always be found playing cricket “all over the place” in Pakistan. Michael Vaughan later hinted out a possibility of an English side’s tour to Pakistan by saying “I think we’re getting closer to England touring” to the country.

Vaughan's comments come after PCB chief Ehsan Mani expressed hope that England would reciprocate for this home series with a tour of Pakistan in 2022. England's last tour of Pakistan was in 2005 in which it was Michael Vaughan who ironically led England in the Test series.
