Pakistani cricket team in England and Ireland in 2016
International cricket tour
The Pakistan national cricket team toured England, Wales and Ireland from 3 July to 7 September 2016 for a four-match Test series, a five-match One Day International (ODI) series and a one-off Twenty20 International (T20I) against the England cricket team.[1] They also played two three-day matches against Somerset and Sussex prior to the Test series, a two-day match against Worcestershire during the Test series, and two ODI matches against Ireland prior to the ODI series.[2][3]
England's ODI matches against Pakistan was the first to trial a system where the TV umpire calls the front-foot no-ball, instead of the on-field umpire.[4] During the third ODI match of the series, England set a new record team total when they scored 444 runs, with Alex Hales setting a new individual total for an England batsman when he scored 171.[5]
The Test series was drawn 2–2, England won the ODI series 4–1, and Pakistan won the one-off T20I match by 9 wickets. The fixtures formed part of a points-based scoring system, which was introduced in their series against Sri Lanka in May 2016.[6] England won the Super Series 16–12.

Squads
