The scoreline for the ENG vs PAK T20I series so far has been 1-0 in England’s favour. The first match of the series was washed out. Meanwhile, in the second game, England defeated Pakistan by 23 runs.
In response to England’s 187-run total, the visitors could only add up to 160 runs in 19.2 overs. Pakistan were bowled by the English bowling attack led by Reece Topley, who scalped three wickets. Making a sensational comeback following a long injury, Jofra Archer got two wickets.
Fakhar Zaman played a top knock of 45 runs for Pakistan in just 21 deliveries. Skipper Babar Azam contributed with his 26-ball 32-run knock.
England skipper Jos Buttler returned with a massive score despite a hot and cold IPL run in 2024. The glovesman added 84 runs in just 51 deliveries, including 8 boundaries and three maximums.
With the T20I series on the line, Pakistan stands in a do-or-die situation against the Englishmen. A loss in the 3rd T20I would mean that they no longer remain in the contest to win or level the 4-match series. Meanwhile, a win, for Pakistan, would keep the series alive between England and Pakistan.
England will miss the services of Jos Buttler who has returned home to be with his family. Jos Buttler and his wife are expecting their third child soon. Moeen Ali will lead the side in Buttler’s absence.

Sophia Gardens Cardiff Pitch Report ENG vs PAK
The pitch in Sophia Gardens, Carfidd is expected to have a good carry and bounce throughout the contest. The surface will aid the seamers with the lateral movement early on. The spinners are unlikely to get a lot of help off the surface due to plenty of moisture on the surface. It is expected to remain consistent throughout, which will temp the teams to bat second and chase the target.
