Preview:
The action now moves to Lahore as Pakistan will face England in the 5th T20I of the series on Wednesday. Pakistan came out of nowhere and cracked mere 3 runs win in a nail-biting contest in the 4th T20I to level the series 2-2. Again it was Mohammad Rizwan’s batting master class that took them to a competitive total of 166 runs and later special bowling performances from Mohammad Nawaz and Haris Rauf won the game for the hosts. Middle-order batter Asif Ali is finally back in the mix and struck 2 sixes to give a perfect finish. Still, Shadab Khan hasn’t played a game in the series and he is likely to be available for the 2nd leg.
England on the other hand should blame themselves for their loss in the 4th T20I as the game slipped out of their hands in the final stages. They bowled out for 163 runs with still 4 balls left in the match. They lost initial 3 wickets for just 14 runs and thereafter Ben Duckett, Moeen Ali, and Harry Brook steadied the ship in the middle order. Things changed after the trio got dismissed however Liam Dawson’s late flourish got themselves back in the game which still wasn’t enough to seal the game. They don’t want to risk playing Jos Buttler with T20 World Cup around the corner which allows Phil Salt to open the innings again for three lions.
