ENG Vs PAK Dream11 Prediction, Today Match Prediction ENG Vs PAK World Cup 2023

England will compete against Pakistan in the 44th match of the ODI World Cup 2023 at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata. The English registered their second win of the CWC 2023 to keep their hopes for a spot in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 alive, while the Men in Green got the better of New Zealand on DLS to stay in the hunt for the semi-final. Although Pakistan got the better of England in the last edition of the quadrennial spectacle, they haven’t had the best of times in the bilaterals afterward, which could mean a really competitive contest between these two countries on November 11.

England have been knocked out of the World Cup already but their place in the Champions Trophy 2025 is at stake at the moment. Also, they will be playing for pride and will look to bow out of the World Cup on a high being the defending champions. It has been a forgettable World Cup for them and it could be the last game of many players’ ODI careers. David Willey has already announced his international retirement and it will be an emotional moment for him as he walks out for one last time donning the England jersey.

Meanwhile, it is a massive encounter for Pakistan as they have to win the match by a massive margin to trump New Zealand on the net run-rate. They have found some much needed momentum at the back end of the World Cup having defeated Bangladesh and New Zealand in their last two games. Perhaps, many had written them off after they conceded 401 runs to the Kiwis in Bengaluru in the previous outing. But the rain-affected chase was well planned by Pakistan and thanks to Fakhar Zaman’s century, they were on par with the DLS score when rain arrived for one final time in the 26th over. Pakistan stayed alive and results have gone in their favour since then much to the delight of their fans.

The England vs Pakistan prediction is an easy one to predict given the momentum is with the latter side at the moment. However, England also cannot be written off easily as they have been a force in the 50-over format over the last few years. They will be keen on turning things around and end their fledgling campaign on a high.
