In the last league stage match of the ODI World Cup 2023 between England and Pakistan, captain Jos Buttler of England won the toss and decided to bat first. contributions from nearly all six players, with the openers establishing a strong foundation. Ben Stokes and Joe Root expanding on the foundation laid by the openers. During their time at the crease, Harry Brook as well as Buttler made crucial appearances.
Even though Pakistan’s pacers discovered reverse swing in the latter stages, England managed to score over 100 runs in the final 10 overs since they had a large number of wickets at that point. A couple of opportunities were missed, with Stokes’s being the most notable since it let him escape early during his innings.
England ended the first innings on a sluggish, low scoring pitch with a commanding 337. Pakistan needs to reach the semifinals by chasing this target within 6.4 overs, for those who have an interest regarding the NRR calculation.
England end poor WC campaign with a win over Pakistan
Following Fakhar’s cheap dismissal facing the new ball, Pakistan had an uphill battle ahead of them. Pakistan entered this tournament with an unattainable NRR target to advance to the semifinals, and in the end, they were unable to mount a competitive game at all.
In his last international match, Willey was outstanding with the new ball. On a ground that helped them, the spin twins, Adil Rashid as well as Moeen Ali, followed this with beautiful spells. It is tough to believe that England has won both games handily.Unfortunately, it’s too little, too late, as the reigning champs exit the competition.
This has been a great win for England since this victory guarantees them a spot at the Champions Trophy 2025. Pakistan sold dreams to their supporters which could not be completed and that has left a mark on Babar Azam’s captaincy.
