ENG vs PAK Dream11 Prediction : England will take on Pakistan in the first of three ODI matches at Sophia Garden in Cardiff on Thursday, 8 July. England is coming with a series win over Sri Lanka but due to Covid 19 outbreak they’re playing with a new and weaker team in this series and it will be a tough contest for them. On the other side, Pakistan who have been in good form this year will look to take the advantage of this England side.
Fixture Name : England vs Pakistan Competition : 3-Match ODI Series Date : 8 July Time : 5.30 PM IST
Team Form Guide : ENG (most recent first) – Nr, W, W, L, W PAK (most recent first) – W, L, W, L, W
ICC Rankings : ENG – 3 PAK – 6
Ground : Sophia Garden, Cardiff
Brief Score of the last result at the venue : South Africa (131/1) beat Afghanistan (125) by 9 wickets on 15 June 2019.
Sophia Garden, Cardiff hosted a T20I match between England and Sri Lanka last month where batting was bit tough and the surface was helping pacers a lot so a similar surface can be expected for this match as well. In the start pacers will get good help from the new ball and in middle overs spinners too can play good role and batting should get better in the second innings.
