ENG vs PAK 2nd T20: Preview, predicted XIs, live streaming details

ENG vs PAK 2nd T20 – England vs Pakistan 2nd T20 LIVE: Skipper Babar Azam and Pakistan were under pressure after a 0-3 thrashing in the ODI series to a second-string England. But Azam led from the front and survived a scare on Friday as they clinched their first win on their tour of England in the 1st T20I. While the Men in Green avenged the loss with a 31-run win having survived Liam Livingstone’s onslaught at Trent Bridge, they still have two more matches to go and anything less than 3-0 could be seen as a failure against Eoin Morgan’s men – Follow ENGLAND VS PAKISTAN 2nd T20 LIVE Streaming on SonyLIV & Live updates on Insidesport.co

ENG vs PAK 2nd T20 – England vs Pakistan 2nd T20 LIVE: Another win and Babar Azam & Co will be set for a series win against England that will be a morale booster for Pakistan ahead of the ICC T20 World Cup. On Sunday, they will look to repeat their show to clinch the series in Leeds.

But to do that, Babar Azam needs to address the bowling. In the 1st T20I, bowling was not up to the mark as Liam Livingstone and Jonny Bairstow took them to the cleaners. But on Sunday, anything less than good bowling will dampen their hopes and give a chance to Eoin Morgan’s England to make a comeback.

ENG vs PAK 2nd T20: Preview:

Pakistan put in a performance of great quality as they clinched a memorable 31-run win over England in the first T20I at Trent Bridge. Put into bat, Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan put on a terrific 150-run opening partnership, with the former scoring an eye-catching 85, while the latter collected 63.

England meanwhile stuttered in their chase, with only Liam Livingstone turning up on the occasion. Coming in at 5, Livingstone scored the fastest 50 and 100 by an England batsman in T20Is, while also became the first to reach the three figures mark against Pakistan. The lack of support ensured their downfall as Eoin Morgan, Jason Roy, Moeen Ali and Dawid Malan all failed to play an innings of substance. The series has been about experimentation for the hosts, but England will not leave the series to chance when they take the field in the 2nd T20I on Sunday at Headingley.
