It looks like a home ground for Pakistan rather than England.

Pakistan have completely outplayed England in 2016 and now in 18.

Will England be brave enough, or would they gamble scheduling a test with Pakistan, at Lords in the future?
 
Well you can hardly avoid your premier home Test venue ! They always play at least one Test in a series at Lord's.

We're back here in 2020 - the other two venues being Old Trafford and Trent Bridge.

They play 2 teams (7 tests every summer). They can schedule a match with other team at Lords and give Pakistan other venues apart from lords

England didn't win a single Test against Australia for 75 years at Lord's until 2009 but they kept playing Ashes Tests there.

Lord's (and London in general) is the big money spinning Test venue for ECB. Usually get a sold out house too.
 
Yeah yeah, its all because of the venue Pakistan is winning otherwise England would have pummled us. /s

Bro ashes is different. There is no Ashes(in Eng) without Lord's. It's a historical tournament, and SHOULD be played at the home of cricket.

Obviously Eng could schedule different teams at Lords.
 
Yes of course they will. Teams very rarely stop playing at a certain ground just because of a poor record there.
