Preview

Pakistan will lock horns with England in the first fixture of the seven-match T20I series at National Stadium, Karachi. Pakistan are coming into this series after emerging as a runner-up in the Asia Cup 2022. The team’s key batters will be Mohammad Rizwan and Shan Masood, given their blistering form. In the bowling unit, they will welcome Mohammad Wasim Jr, while Haris Rauf and Naseem Shah have been in top form.

On the other hand, England lost their last T20I series against South Africa but will look to come up with improved performances. In the absence of injured Jos Buttler, Moeen Ali will lead the Three Lions. They have an exciting line-up with the presence of talented all-rounders like Sam Curran and David Willey. The likes of Adil Rashid and Reece Topley will be their key bowlers.
