England vs Pakistan Preview

Mohammad Rizwan’s consistency at the top of the order for Pakistan has been incredible. I am sticking with him as my best bet to score over 25.5 runs.

England’s Liam Livingstone has scored 103 & 38 runs in his last 2 T20I matches.
Pakistan’s Babar Azam scored 85 runs in the 1st T20I against England.
Pakistan’s Babar Azam is ranked as the 2nd best T20 batsman in the world.
Pakistan’s Mohammad Rizwan has scored over 37 runs in 10 of his last 13 T20I matches.
Pakistan’s Mohammad Rizwan has scored 66 & 37 runs in his last 2 matches.

Head to Head

England and Pakistan are level at 3-3 over their last six T20I matches. The current series is also level at 1-1 after England won by 45 runs in the 2nd T20 in Leeds.

England Form

England have won nine of their last 13 T20I matches and leveled the three-match series against Pakistan at 1-1 in the 2nd T20 of this series.

On another good surface in Leeds, England batted first. Jos Buttler made a return to the side after injury and scored 59 off 39 balls. Liam Livingstone continued his fine form, scoring 38 off 23 to back up is century in the 1st T20.

The 200-run total was more than enough as Pakistan were restricted to 155 runs in their 20 overs. Saqib Mahmood took 3-32 while Moeen Ali chipped in with two wickets. Ali also smashed 36 from 16 balls to land himself the man of the match award.

England Team News

Jos Buttler came into the side for captain Eoin Morgan in the 2nd T20I. Morgan is likely to return with Dawid Malan struggling for form.

Pakistan Form

After winning the 1st T20 of the series Pakistan failed to secure a series win in Leeds last time out. They will have another opportunity in the decider on Tuesday.

Mohammad Hasnain took three wickets but went at over 12 runs to the over as England posted a 200-run total in Leeds. Mohammad Rizwan and Babar Azam again got off to a great start with a 50-run opening partnership.

Azam was dismissed for 22 while Rizwan scored 37. Unfortunately the middle order couldn’t back the openers up and Pakistan fell 45 runs short.

Pakistan Team News

The Pakistan side is a reasonably settled one. They may opt to make a couple of changes but with the series on the line, they will be close to full strength.
