Pakistan vs England Match Prediction

Pakistan vs England Team Previews

Pakistan

The host team will be satisfied with their victory against England in the earlier games. Despite the tight win, the coaching unit will be worried about the absence of propulsion from players like Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan. The Pakistan squad will rely on Captain Babar Azam, wicket-keeper Mohammad Rizwan, Shan Masood, Khushdil Shah, Asif Ali, and Mohammad Nawaz to produce the majority of the runs. Mohammad Rizwan, the previous game’s wicket-keeper, extended his hot streak against England. The 30-year-old performed admirably, finishing the innings with a top-score of 88 runs off 67 balls, thanks to nine fours and one six. He was well supported by Captain Babar Azam, who chipped in with 36 runs off 28 balls. Power-hitter Asif Ali batted quickly at the conclusion of the innings, scoring 13 runs to enable Pakistan to record a respectable total of 166 runs in their allocated 20 overs. Upon the bowling department, the speed three of Mohammad Hasnain, Haris Rauf, and Mohammad Wasim Jr. will have to deliver timely inroads once more. Haris Rauf had a terrific effort with the ball in his possession in the previous match, taking 3 for 32 in four overs. Aside from Rauf, pacer Mohammad Hasnain delivered an outstanding effort. In an exciting finish to Sunday’s match, Pakistan claimed the final three England wickets in seven balls. In the series, they have given some amazing efforts as well as some really awful ones.

England

England, captained by Moeen Al, will lament the notion they should have won their previous match against Pakistan. England nearly pulled off an unbelievable chase against Pakistan because of the outstanding efforts of players such as Harry Brook, Ben Duckett, Moeen Ali, and Liam Dawson. The hosts will be counting on openers Alex Hales, Phil Salt, Will Jacks, Harry Brook, Ben Duckett, and all-rounder Moeen Ali to score the majority of the runs. Liam Dawson hammered a quick-fire 34 off 17 balls with five fours and one six in the previous encounter. In addition to Dawson, Harry Brook scored 34 runs off 29 balls, while Ben Duckett contributed 33 runs off 24 balls. On the bowling side, Reece Topley, Olly Stone, David Willey, Adil Rashid, and Liam Dawson must make timely breaks. England had a range of feelings in the closing few overs as they appeared to be on the verge of winning the fourth IT20. They have a deep roster and will be competitive in this game. It was an absolutely stunning effort from England to come out on top twice in the four games played against a strong opposition like Pakistan even  after resting many of their first choice players.
