england vs pakistan, 1st t20 match, live score
After losing the ODI series 3–0 to a second-string English team, Pakistan’s tour of England moved to the shortest format of the game. The two sides will clash in a three-match T20I series and the first match between them will take place at Trent Bridge in Nottingham on Friday, 16 July. The game is scheduled to start at 11:00 PM IST.
The hosts cleaned up Pakistan in the three-match ODI series and earned Super League points. Despite the absence of senior players, a young England team has never been uncomfortable during a limited overs series. The number one ranked T20I team in the world has named a 16-man squad for the T20I series. This will bring back their experienced players, which will boost their confidence. England will be led by their usual white-ball captain Eoin Morgan. Meanwhile, Jake Ball, Lewis Gregory, Saqib Mahmood, David Malan and Matt Parkinson among others have been retained from the ODI series.
Pakistan heads into the T20I series to take revenge on the hosts. They have included some young names in their list for the T20I series and they would be hoping for a better result. Babar Azam’s men struggled a lot in the last ODI but their bowlers lacked consistency and this is one area where the captain wants his bowlers to perform well. Even though England started out as the clear favourites, they cannot take Pakistan lightly.
Both sides will be eyeing a win in the first T20 match and we should play an exciting match at Trent Bridge on Friday night.
