England vs Pakistan Match Preview :
England vs Pakistan On Saturday, the second One-Day International (ODI) between England and Pakistan will be played at Lord’s in London.
Despite fielding a second-string side owing to a COVID-19 outbreak in the camp, England thrashed Pakistan in the first One-Day International on Thursday. Saqib Mahmood and Zak Crawley shone for the home side as they cruised to a nine-wicket victory against the Asian heavyweights. England will be hoping to win the series in the second match, with momentum on their side. Their inexperience, on the other hand, may be a liability that the visiting team may exploit.
Pakistan’s batters, with the exception of Fakhar Zaman, were handed a reality check in Cardiff, with none of them scoring runs. Pakistan couldn’t even generate a fight with the ball. The visitors, on the other hand, are more than capable of turning the tables, with players like Babar Azam and Hasan Ali coming off a great PSL season.
Despite the fact that England has momentum, Pakistan may possibly have the upper hand moving into the second game because to their better experience and balance. Another exciting game of cricket awaits at the legendary Lord’s, with some of the finest players in the world, Ben Stokes and Babar Azam, taking centre stage.

Pitch Report England vs Pakistan
A decent batting track awaits the two sides with some help on offer for the bowlers as well. While the pacers will get some swing with the new ball, the batsmen will look to target the bowlers in the powerplay overs. As the game progresses, the pitch might get slower, bringing the spinners into play. Wickets in hand will be key as both sides will look to go big in the final 10 overs. 270 should be a good total at the venue, with chasing being the preferred option upon winning the toss.
