ENG vs PAK 2020 – 2nd T20I Fantasy Preview

The weather is being a spoilsport right now in England with the last couple of Tests being washed out due to ran and then, the 1st T20I also being washed out. England is one of the most dangerous T20 teams in the world but they’re up against a pretty decent Pakistan side as well and while the first game was washed out, we know what kind of team combinations each side is gearing towards.

Pakistan won the toss and fielded first in the 1st T20I where England got 131/6 in 16.1 overs before rain came and didn’t go away again. All games will be played at the same ground, so you’ll have an idea of how the pitch is going to play again here for this game.

England

We knew Tom Banton had the talent and he proved it in the last game, setting the game alive before the rain Gods decided to take over. He’s been consistent but since he’s going to be in plenty of fantasy teams today, we’re skipping him and picking Jonny Bairstow instead who scored 2(4) but has several shots in the bag. Dawid Malan after him scored 23 but he’s super talented, with experience across the globe in T20 leagues!

Captain Eoin Morgan doesn’t have the best of records at this ground so we’ll skip him as well in favour of someone like Moeen Ali who is batting really down the order but he’s a handy bowler as well, so he’s even worth picking as captain or vice-captain of your ENG vs PAK fantasy team. Pakistan picked 4 wickets by spin and that’s why we’re including Adil Rashid as a bowling option as well.

Pakistan

Since we’re talking about spinners, make sure we have Shadab Khan in our fantasy teams because he picked 2 wickets in his 4 overs and the guy can give it a whack with the bat if needed of him as well. Like him, Imad Wasim is also someone who can give it a hit down the order and he’s used as their opening bowler in T20Is as well, picking 2/31 in the 1st T20I and we expect him to contribute here as well.

With the bat, don’t forget to add the number #1 batsman in T20Is to your Nostragamus (Use “READSCOOPS” for Rs.100 FREE) fantasy team, which is Babar Azam, in case you were wondering. He had a great time in England during this time last year as well and like him, left-handed opening batsman Fakhar Zaman also has a few fifties and hundreds in this part of the world, so you should pick both today!
