England will play a Test in Sharjah interestingly after the timetable for their voyage through UAE to confront Pakistan in October and November was affirmed. The group will fly out to the Middle East only two weeks after the one-day arrangement against Australia finishes up.

The excursion will incorporate three Tests, which starts on October 13 in Abu Dhabi, trailed by matches in Dubai and Sharjah. The Tests will be trailed by 4’s ODIs from November 11 to 20, preceding the visit finishes up with a three-match T20 arrangement held between November 26 and 30.

The last time England played a worldwide at the venue was amid a triangular arrangement in 1999 which shaped an odd form up to that year's World Cup, which was held in England. On this visit, they will likewise play an ODI and a T20 at the ground.

The visit will be Trevor Bayliss' first abroad task with England and one of his primary difficulties will be to attempt and guarantee his group don't fumble against twist as they did on the past outing in mid-2012. Britain, who were the No. 1 positioned Test group at the time, were flummoxed by the twist of Saeed Ajmal and Abdur Rehman as the pair shared 43 wickets over the three Tests.

Britain may not confront either on this excursion - Ajmal has not played Test cricket since coming back from redesigning his knocking down some pins activity and is as of now not included in any configuration for Pakistan, while Abdur Rehman has not played internationals for a year - but rather the current spinners, legspinner Yasir Shah and left-armer Zulfiqar Babar, have delighted in significant achievement.

Taking after the finish of the visit, England will return home for a brief time before leaving for South Africa - another full visit which incorporates four Tests, 5’s ODIs and 2’s T20s. That will be trailed by the World Twenty20 in India amid March.

Britain's red-ball and white-ball groups have now separated to such a point, to the point that there are not very many players that show up in all configurations, however any semblance of Joe Root, Jos Buttler, Ben Stokes and maybe Moeen Ali could be relied upon to be first decision for Tests, ODIs and T20s, and may oblige watchful taking care of from the administration.
