Following the conclusion of the second test in Karachi we have an opportunity to experience all that Pakistan has to offer in Lahore.

On Tuesday, we head to The Lahore Museum - the largest in Pakistan - which includes collections that depict the history of various ruling empires in the country. After this, we will proceed to the Minari Pakistan, a 70m tall tower built to commemorate the Pakistan Resolution, which led to the creation of the country as we know it today. The tour finishes with the Lahore Fort and the Badshahi Mosque.

Those who travelled with Howzat in 2022 will remember the thrilling Test that took place here in 2022. It was a real statement from Ben Stokes to force a result, but they will of course be without Jimmy Anderson, who bowled them to victory in the fourth innings last time around.

England hold the record for the highest innings total here with a 657 total from 2022. Crawley, Duckett, Pope and Brook all made centuries in what led to a win for the ages in the dying Rawalpindi light. Let's hope for a similarly positive outcome in 2024!
