Michael Atherton said:

I am extremely satisfied with the security situation in Pakistan. The Sky documentary will help to portray a positive image of the country that has suffered significantly in the past.

Atherton remains confident that the English cricket team will visit Pakistan as per the Future Tours Programme schedule.

Surely, England must be considering a tour of Pakistan. England last visited Pakistan in 2005. I would like to see both teams taking on each other in Pakistan.

In two years, Pakistan fans will see England on their home soil, said Atherton.

I can see England coming to Pakistan in 2022. Before that, England can send its A team or under-19s to Pakistan.
