Pakistan and England will face off in the 10th match of the World Championship of Legends (WCL) 2024 at Edgbaston Stadium in Birmingham on Sunday.
Pakistan Champions are in excellent form, having won all three of their matches so far. They started strong by chasing a 190-run target against Australia, then set a 195-run target in their second match and successfully defended it. Their most impressive win was a 68-run victory over India, keeping them undefeated in the tournament.
In contrast, the England Champions have had mixed results. They lost their first match to India but came back to defeat South Africa by nine wickets in their second match. However, they lost their third match to Australia. England is currently fourth on the points table with two points from three matches and a +0.305 Net Run Rate (NRR). A loss against Pakistan could put them in a difficult position.
