Cricket Free Tips | England vs Pakistan, 2021: 1st T20I

England and Pakistan will play the first of their three-match IT20 series today. England’s senior players, who were unable to participate in the ODI series due to COVID-19 isolation protocols, have returned for the T20I series. England’s interim captain, Ben Stokes, will be rested for the T20I series after playing a significant role in the ODI series victory. Jos Buttler has recovered from his injury suffered in the middle of the Sri Lanka series.

In the ODIs, Pakistan was outplayed by a second-string England team in every game. When it comes to the T20 format, however, it’s a different story. They are a well-balanced unit that will be ready for the three-match T20I series that begins on Friday.

Weather
Temperatures will reach 25 degrees at the start of the game, dropping to the low 20s as the game progresses.

Pitch
A high-scoring cricket match is expected, with the bowlers receiving little to no assistance. The batsmen would want to play big shots from the start. Despite the lack of movement off the pitch, both pacers and spinners will attempt to modify their pace to get something off the pitch. After winning the toss, both teams will try to chase, with 180 being a competitive total at the location.
