Pakistan will host England for the final game of the three-match Test series. This encounter will happen in Karachi. On that note, here, we look at the pitch report of the National Stadium and the weather conditions in Karachi for PAK vs ENG 2022.
Pakistan lost both games to England and this is an alarming result for them. Having done well at home, many were curious to see how England would do well abroad. While they won the first game with some bold decisions, the second victory was purely due to the skills on display by the Englishmen. It has been a memorable ride for them and whitewashing the Pakistan team at their home will be a massive achievement for them. Babar Azam and co. will look to avoid this at any cost. Hence, it will be an interesting battle in the final encounter.

The National Stadium in Karachi is an iconic venue. Till now, the stadium has seen a total of 44 Tests. The most recent one happened in March 2022.
The average batting score on this track is 295. Compared to the other venues in Pakistan, it is less. Imran Khan‘s 8/60 against India in 1982 is still the best bowling display in an innings so far. Abrar Ahmed looked good in the last game and he is one player whom the Pakistanis will look forward to gaining a consolation victory.

The temperatures will range between 28 degree Celsius and 14 degrees Celsius on all five days of the game. While rainfall is not predicted, the weather will be partly cloudy on Day 2 and Day 3.
The Test series has lived up to the expectation mainly due to no interference by the weather. It is expected to remain the same for the last game, too.
