'We Need More Test Cricket': Pakistan Captain Shan Masood
Shaheen Shah Afridi: Pakistan Test captain Shan Masood has called for the country to play more Test matches as they prepares for a rare and packed season of red-ball cricket, starting with a two-match series against Bangladesh in Rawalpindi on August 21.
Pakistan are set to play seven Tests at home, facing Bangladesh, England, and the West Indies, with a two-Test series in South Africa. The last time Pakistan played more than six Tests in a single season was in 1998-99, over 25 years ago.
The two Tests against Bangladesh will be their first since the New Year's Test in Sydney earlier this year. Once this home season concludes in January 2025, Pakistan will face a long gap, with no Test cricket scheduled until October 2025, when South Africa visits, followed by another long break until March 2026.
