Mohammad Amir returns to Pakistan squad for England tour

Mohammad Amir is included in Pakistan's squad for next month's England tour, marking his return to the international scene following a five-year ban.

Pakistan have selected fast bowler Mohammad Amir for the upcoming Test series against England after his return to international cricket.

The 24-year-old was suspended for five years due to spot-fixing, before earning a place back in the Men in Green's limited-overs' squads.

Amir is expected to be granted a visa next week, opening the door for him to feature against England in the first Test at Lord's on July 14.

Before that Pakistan face two tour matches against Somerset and Sussex, while also taking on Worcestershire between the second and third Tests.

There is also a recall for fast bowler Sohail Khan, who has been out of the fold since September 2011, while Mohammad Hafeez is included despite nursing a knee injury of late.

Pakistan squad for England tour: Mohammad Hafeez, Shan Masood, Sami Aslam, Misbah-ul-Haq (capt), Younis Khan, Azhar Ali, Asad Shafiq, Iftikhar Ahmed, Sarfraz Ahmed (wk), Mohammad Rizwan (wk), Zulfiqar Babar, Yasir Shah, Wahab Riaz, Mohammad Amir, Rahat Ali, Imran Khan, Sohail Khan
