EN-A vs PK-A Match Preview:
Control firmly rests with England A after they secured victories in the opening two matches and established a 2-0 lead in the three-match T20 series against Pakistan A. Moreover, their composed execution in key phases has allowed them to dictate the tempo throughout the contest. With momentum clearly in their favor, England A now approach the final encounter aiming to seal a comprehensive clean sweep.
In the second fixture, England posted 183 for 5 through collective batting strength. James Coles anchored the innings with an unbeaten 48, while Ben McKinney contributed 38 and Jordan Cox added 34 to strengthen the total. Subsequently, the bowling unit delivered a disciplined response by dismissing Pakistan A for 151. Coles completed a remarkable all-round display with figures of 4 for 18, and Sonny Baker alongside Scott Currie supported effectively with crucial breakthroughs. Although Maaz Sadaqat scored 32 and Saad Masood added 30, Pakistan A struggled to build sustained pressure during the chase.
Therefore, England A enter the third T20 with confidence and clarity, whereas Pakistan A must respond with sharper intent to avoid a whitewash. While England aim to maintain dominance, Pakistan will push hard to salvage pride and conclude the tour on a competitive note.
