Pakistan vs England
6th T20 Match Prediction & Tips
Time: 30 Sep, 08:00 PM (IST)
Series: 6th T20 Match
Venue: Gaddafi Stadium – Lahore, Pakistan
Info:
Mohammed Rizwan has scored five half-centuries from his last six innings and the opener is our pick for Pakistan’s highest run scorer on Friday. With the ball, Haris Rauf continued his excellent series with figures of 2-41 on Wednesday. The pace bowler is well worth backing as Pakistan’s top wicket taker in this match.
Alex Hales has scored a century and nine fifties in this format and the right-handed opener is a strong choice for England’s highest run scorer in the sixth match of the series. Mark Wood took 3-20 in the fifth IT20 and the pace bowler is our tip for England’s top wicket taker in this game.
With large contributions coming from Mohammed Rizwan on a regular basis, we recommend backing Mohammed Rizwan to score over 45.5 runs in this clash.

Winning Chances:
The first game of the series in Lahore was a brilliant fixture with the identity of the winner unknown until the conclusion of the final over. The teams are very closely matched and we are predicting another very tight match. Overall, we are predicting Pakistan to win the game.
Pakistan are favorites to beat England at the odds.
PAK Key Players:
Mohammad Rizwan
The keeper-batter has scored 553 runs at an average of 69.12 in IT20s across this month. He hit five boundaries on Wednesday.
Shadab Khan
The vice-captain returned to the Pakistan XI after being rested for the first five games and hit a six from the first ball he faced. He also got the crucial wicket of form-batter Harry Brook.
Haris Rauf
With eight wickets from five matches, the Pakistan pace bowler is the leading wicket taker in the series. He dismissed Phil Salt and Chris Woakes in Wednesday’s fixture.
