The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) is all set to hold the first Test match between Pakistan and England at Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium despite the fear that if the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) would turn the protest into a sit-in in Pindi on Nov 26th, the test match would likely be affected, reported 24NewsHD TV channel. 

The PCB is sticking to its original plan to hold the first test match in Rawalpindi. 

Sources told 24News that the first match of the Pakistan-England cricket series might be affected by the PTI protest.

If PTI turns its protest into a sit-in near Faizabad on November 26, then authorities can shift the test venue, sources familiar with the development told 24News.   

Pertinent to note that the England cricket team will reach Islamabad on November 27th.

The visiting team will play their first Test at the Pindi Cricket Stadium on December 1st.

Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf has given the date of protest on November 26 as Imran Khan asked his party workers to reach Rawalpindi.
