Pak vs Eng T20I: Pakistan will take on England in a four-match Twenty20 International series starting on May 22 in Leeds, ahead of the highly anticipated Twenty20 World Cup 2024 following month. This follows an exhilarating victory over Ireland.
Both teams’ preparations for the highly anticipated T20 World Cup 2024, which is scheduled to take place in the USA and the West Indies in June, will depend much on the outcome of this series.
Pakistan is coming off a 2-1 series triumph against Ireland, in which captain Babar Azam came up with a game-winning 42-ball 75 to lead his team to victory.
Before that, they played at home against a New Zealand team that was playing below par, and the series opener ended in a 2-2 tie due to rain.
The return of Hasan Ali, Mohammad Amir, and Imad Wasim to the team has given the Men in Green a multitude of choices in their lineup.
They also have hitters in their ranks who, on their finest days, can destroy the opposition, such Saim Ayub, Fakhar Zaman, and Iftikhar Ahmed.
Furthermore, Pakistan has greatly benefited from Shaheen Afridi’s recent form. The star fast bowler had not been playing at his best until his recent successes against New Zealand and Ireland helped him rediscover his confidence. He was removed as Pakistan’s T20I captain after a brief tenure.
However, well-known English players like Moeen Ali, Will Jacks, Jos Buttler, Phil Salt, and Sam Curran are back from the 2024 Indian Premier League, where they all had fantastic individual performances.
The Pak vs Eng series is considered to be 50-50 for both teams contender to lift the winners trophy.
