ENG vs PAK Dream11 Team Prediction (2nd T20), Fantasy Cricket Tips & Playing 11 Updates for Today's Cricket Match - August 30th, 2020
After a rain-marred encounter on Friday, Pakistan and England are back in action again in the second T20 International at Old Trafford. In the 16.1 overs that were bowled, both England and Pakistan showed what they are capable of with the likes of Shadab Khan and Tom Banton standing out.
Barring the prospect of rain, Pakistan will be looking forward to this game as they eye a series-defining win on Sunday. With Babar Azam in their ranks, one might even fancy Pakistan's chances although Eoin Morgan and Co. aren't ones to be taken lightly. Boasting of Chris Jordan and Tom Curran on their roster, the English bowling attack should be a handful for captain Babar Azam.
All in all, a very competitive game beckons with either side looking for the all-important win in this fixture.
