Lahore’s Gaddafi Stadium is set to host the last 3 T20Is of the 7-match series between Pakistan and England. The series is currently levelled at 1-1, and the three T20Is in Lahore will decide the fate of the series.
The batters have dominated in the series so far, and the same can be expected in the Lahore leg as well. England have got multiple match-winners in the batting department, but the over-dependence of Pakistan on the duo of Mohammad Rizwan and Babar Azam can be an issue for the side.
The bowlers have not been getting any kind of support from the pitches, but the way in which Pakistani bowlers bowled in the last match will give the side a lot of confidence going forward in the series. Adil Rashid has been the best bowler of England so far in the series.
