Preview:

In cricket’s biggest spectacle, England and Pakistan will face other in the summit clash of the T20 World Cup 2022 on Super Sunday. Iconic Melbourne Cricket Ground will host the contest between the sides. At one point both sides were on the verge of getting knocked out of the tournament in the Group stages and now are in the finals. England finished 2nd in the Group 1 standings and made a cut into the knockouts on the basis of a better run rate than Australia. They made full advantage of it and humbled India by a 10-wicket margin in the 2nd Semi-Final to cement their spot in the finals for the 3rd time. Jos Buttler and Alex Hales’s prior experience of playing in the BBL came in handy as the duo stitched a record-breaking partnership of unbeaten 170 runs. Chris Jordan who replaced Mark Wood picked up 3 crucial wickets to restrict Men in Blue for 168 runs. They are a dangerous unit and will start as favorites for this match.

Pakistan on the other hand proving again and again that they are an unpredictable side in the ICC tournaments. They should be thankful for Netherlands who knocked out South Africa in the group stages. They rose to the occasion and played as a unit in the 1st Semi-Final and snatched 7 wickets over New Zealand. Skipper Babar Azam who struggled earlier in the competition hit a fine half-century when it mattered the most for the side and Mohammad Rizwan’s timely knock of 57 runs put them a place in the finals. Lead pacer Shaheen Afridi has been phenomenal in the last 2 matches, picking up 9 wickets in the last 3 matches. Shadab Khan who went wicketless in the semis is still their best player. Both sides will be eyeing their 2nd T20 World Cup title.

What is the pitch report for ENG vs PAK, T20 World Cup 2022, Final?

Overall it’s a good competitive surface and we witnessed some epic battles earlier in this tournament. It’s not easy to chase more than 160 runs here and the pressure of the finals will make it further tougher. There are more chances of rain on Sunday and also on the reserve which is scheduled on Monday.
