A Test series between England and Pakistan is scheduled to begin soon. On October 7, the first Test between the two teams will take place at the Multan Cricket Stadium. Josh Hull would not be travelling to Pakistan with England, the country said ahead of the opening Test.
It’s important to note that Hull also missed the current Australia series because of an injury sustained during his Test debut against Sri Lanka at the Kia Oval.
Due to a quad injury, Josh Hull will miss the series.
Rather than accompanying the team to Pakistan for the Test series, the left-arm bowler will continue his recuperation. England Cricket announced on their official X Twitter that Hull will not be travelling to Pakistan.

Australia and England will compete at the upcoming Lord’s
Speaking of England, they are presently playing an ODI series against Australia. So far, both teams have faced off in three One-Day Internationals (ODIs). Australia has won the first two of these matches, while England has triumphed in the third. Australia already leads the series, thus England’s match against them in the fourth ODI is a must-win. Conversely, a victory in the fourth game will seal the series for Australia.
Australia and England will play the fourth One-Day International at the Lord’s Cricket Ground in London on September 27.

Moreover, the fifth match will decide the series if England wins the fourth One-Day International. On September 29, the County Ground in Bristol will host the fifth and final One-Day International.
