Tonight at the Gaddafi Stadium, Lahore, we see Pakistan facing off England for the 6th T20I in a long 7-match T20I series.
So far, the hosts have managed to win three matches to take the lead in the series, whereas England is just near with two wins. So tonight’s match will partially be a decider – letting Pakistan take the series if it wins or offering England a chance in case it wins.
The hosts have so far been changing their bowling lineup aggressively, with only Haris Rauf being the only seamer who played all five T20Is. Pakistan may rest him for tonight’s match and offer Shahnawaz Dahani or Mohammad Hasnain a chance. Naseem Shah, another star pacer who was diagnosed with pneumonia, has also tested positive for Covid-19, thus ruled out of the series.
England, on the other hand, has been struggling with their bowling too. None of their bowlers have paid all the 5 T20Is till now, so Moeen Ali may continue changing options tonight too. Though they desperately wanted Jos Buttler to bat and Mark Wood to continue bowling, they might not risk them for the sake of the upcoming T20I World Cup.
With all that being said, here’s what tonight’s squads may look like;
