PAK vs ENG Dream11 match top picks, 7th T20I
Top Wicketkeeper Pick
Phil Salt (6 matches, 147 runs, strike-rate: 156.38)
Phil Salt was the star of the show in the previous game, scoring a 41-ball 88. While he has not been in great form in the series, Salt did come through on Friday, scoring his fifty in less than 20 balls. With Pakistan struggling in the powerplay of late, Salt should be a top pick in your PAK vs ENG Dream11 prediction team.
Top Batter Pick
Babar Azam (87(59) in the previous match)
Babar Azam was the standout batter for Pakistan in the previous game with 87 runs off 59 balls. He is the second-highest run-scorer in the series with 281 runs in six matches. With Rizwan likely to miss the upcoming game, Azam will become a more important asset in your PAK vs ENG Dream11 prediction team.
Top All-rounder Pick
Shadab Khan (2 matches, 3 wickets, Average: 19.67)
Shadab Khan has done well in this series with the ball, picking up three wickets at an average of 19.67. He was the lone Pakistan bowler to take a wicket in the previous game. With Shadab being a good option on the batting front too, he is one to watch out for in this game.
Top Bowler Pick
Mark Wood (2 matches, 6 wickets, Average: 7.50)
Mark Wood has had a brilliant return to international cricket, picking up six wickets in the two games he has played so far. He is averaging just 7.50 and has impressed in the powerplay and middle overs. With Wood likely to feature in this game, he becomes a top pick for your PAK vs ENG Dream11 prediction team.
PAK vs ENG match captain and vice-captain choices
Dawid Malan
Dawid Malan has struggled to get going in the series, scoring only 96 runs in five matches. However, he did show signs of form in the previous game, scoring 26 runs off 18 balls with the help of five boundaries. With Malan due for a big score, he is a viable captaincy option for your PAK vs ENG Dream11 prediction team.
Shan Masood
Like Dawid Malan, Shan Masood has also blown hot and cold in the series. He is still Pakistan's third-highest run-scorer in the series with 101 runs in five matches. He has a decent record in Lahore and could be backed to get amongst the runs. With Masood being a good player of pace and spin, he is a good captain or vice-captain pick in your PAK vs ENG Dream11 prediction team.
