The Pakistan cricket team will depart from Cardiff to London on Wednesday at 10 am local time.

England leads the four-match series 1-0, having won the second T20I, while the first and third T20I in Leeds and Cardiff respectively were washed out due to rain.

The fourth and final T20I will be played on Thursday at The Oval, London.

However, the weather forecast suggests a likelihood of rain, with overcast conditions throughout the day.

AccuWeather reports a 65 percent chance of rain in the afternoon and a 49 percent chance during the match, which is scheduled to commence at 6:30 pm local time.

The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) announced that the team will hold a practice session from 2 pm to 4 pm on Wednesday at The Oval.
