International cricket tour
The
England national cricket team, under the auspices of
Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC), toured
Ceylon and
Pakistan from January to March 1969 and played a three-match
Test series against the
Pakistani national cricket team. The Test series was drawn 0β0. England were captained by
Colin Cowdrey and Pakistan by
Saeed Ahmed. As Ceylon had not then achieved Test status, the international played at the
Paikiasothy Saravanamuttu Stadium,
Colombo, is classified as a
first-class match. It ended in a draw.
