England have won the toss and have opted to field England (Playing XI): Tom Banton, Jonny Bairstow(w), Dawid Malan, Eoin Morgan(c), Sam Billings, Moeen Ali, Lewis Gregory, Tom Curran, Chris Jordan, Adil Rashid, Saqib Mahmood Pakistan (Playing XI): Babar Azam(c), Fakhar Zaman, Mohammad Hafeez, Shoaib Malik, Mohammad Rizwan(w), Iftikhar Ahmed, Shadab Khan, Imad Wasim, Mohammad Amir, Haris Rauf, Shaheen Afridi
Among the hosts’ batsmen, opener Tom Banton was the only positive sign during the opening game of this series as he scored his first T20I fifty (71 runs off 42 balls; 4 fours and 5 sixes). Dawid Malan had the 71 runs partnership with Banton for the second wicket, but then Malan was run-out on 23 runs off 23 balls. Captain Eoin Morgan, opening batsman and wicket-keeper Jonny Bairstow are the other big names in this batting line-up. Chris Jordan is the most consistent T20I bowler for the English side at present. Leg-spinner Adil Rashid is another consistent bowler in the limited-overs side.

All-rounders Imad Wasim (2/31) and Shadab Khan (2/33) picked up two wickets each at the crucial period during the first T20I of this series. While Pakistan didn’t bat in the last game, this batting line-up is hugely depended on captain Babar Azam’s performance, who is the no.1-ranked T20I batsman.
