Was Babar's wicket the turning point of the match?
Pakistan debutants: Imam-ul-Haq, Mohammad Hasnain.
Toss:Pakistan have won the toss and elected to bat first - T20I debut for Jofra Archer.
Pitch conditions:
The pitch at this venue is usually a good one for batting, so bowlers are going to have a tough time. Team winning the toss should elect to bat first on this belter.
Build Up:
The only T20I between England and Pakistan is set to get under way in a while at Cardiff. Looking at their previous record, Pakistan have enjoyed much success against the hosts as the ratio stands 9:4 in favour of the number 1 ranked T20I team. Babar Azam is coming off a century against Leicestershire, hence there will be a lot of expectations from the number 1 ranked T20I batsman today. Jofra Archer had some success for Rajasthan Royals in the IPL of late, so it'll be interesting to see how the speedster performs on his T20I debut for England. His ODI debut against Ireland wasn't a great one but in the shortest format his numbers are impressive. So it's going to be the experience of Pakistan vs the exuberance of England. Toss and teams up in a bit, stay tuned in.
