Now ECB has released their summer schedule - 2021

After Indian cricket team has been planned for a too tiring schedule at 2021, now the founders of cricket, England Cricket Board have announced their 2021 summer schedule, in which they are gonna stage many cricket matches. In today morning, I have seen a news stating that England cricket team has been planned to travel to Pakistan for a cricketing tour after Zimbabwe and South Africa. This news started creating some sort of expectations which was beaten by England Cricket Board ( ECB ) at evening in their Twitter Handle. They have planned a brisk summer, not only for men but also for women and visually impaired teams respectively. They have also released tickets stating that if the Covid cases stay the same, then it will refunded. 

The main current plans see England women's cricket team set to play against South Africa in a Royal London ODI Series and Vitality IT20 Series before hosting New Zealand in the same.

England's Visually Impaired Team is set to face Australia in a limited overs series at August. England hold the Ashes after their resounding success in Adelaide four years ago with fixtures and dates for next summer’s series also yet to be finalised.

In Men's Cricket, discussions are going as they have planned to host against Sri Lanka in June, for a test cricket and again Vitality IT20 Series. But, this isn't confirmed as, the decision on the Final of ICC World Test Championship, is set to be staged in the same, for which International Cricket Council ( ICC ), is yet to start preparations. But, the five match test series against the Indians, is right on the cards.
