Pakistan will take on England in the series-decider final T20I of the ongoing seven-match series at Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore on Sunday, October 2. The heady series is currently tied up at 3-3, with both Pakistan and England winning three matches each.
The tourists, who recently won the sixth T20I to level the series, will be aiming to register flipside victory to seal the series. Similarly, the hosts would moreover be hoping to record flipside triumph in order to take the series.
Pitch report:
The track at Gaddafi Stadium provides decent support to batters, as was evident in the previous fixture. The dew is expected to play a major factor, and chasing will be an platonic option at this venue.

Pakistan: Babar Azam (c), Mohammad Rizwan (wk), Shan Masood, Iftikhar Ahmed, Haider Ali, Shadab Khan, Asif Ali, Mohammad Nawaz, Aamer Jamal, Mohammad Wasim Jr, Haris Rauf
