After clearing COVID-19 test twice, six Pakistan team players – Fakhar Zaman, Mohammad Hasnain, Mohammad Hafeez, Mohammad Rizwan, Shadab Khan and Wahab Riaz – have arrived in England.

The players were retested on Monday, 29 June, following a first negative test on June 26.

The players will only be allowed to join the team after they clear another coronavirus test that will be conducted by the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB).

Pakistan had earlier named a 29-member squad for the tour. Players who had tested positive, during the initial PCB testing process, were unable to travel.

Meanwhile, the 20-player Pakistan squad, which arrived in England on June 28, is currently training in Worcestershire during their 14-day isolation period. The side will move to Derbyshire on July 13.
