ENG vs PAK, World Cup Live Updates: England skipper Jos Buttler won the toss and opted to bat against Pakistan in their last league match of ODI World Cup 2023 on Saturday in Kolkata. Nothing less than a miracle will help Pakistan as they face a near-impossible task of making the semifinals by winning an unthinkable margin, while a charged-up England will look to qualify for the Champions Trophy. New Zealand's net run-rate boosting five wicket-win over Sri Lanka has virtually shattered Pakistan's semifinal hopes.
Pakistan will be needing a miracle to make it to the semi-finals of Cricket World Cup 2023 when they face a charged-up England at Eden Gardens, Kolkata on Saturday. New Zealand's net run-rate boosting five wicket-win over Sri Lanka on Thursday has virtually shattered Pakistan's semifinal hopes. The 1992 champions now have to beat England by an improbable margin to make it to the knockout round. New Zealand's NRR is +0.743 while Pakistan's is +0.036, and for the Babar Azam-led side to eclipse the former to qualify as the fourth side, it has to win by around 287 runs batting first. While chasing, Pakistan need to win with 284 balls to spare. That is an impractical task.
KOLKATA: Dawid Malan will not be surprised if Saturday's match against Pakistan proves to be his last for England, who might opt for a 50-overs reset following their dismal World Cup title defence in India, the opening batter said on Friday.
England will square off against Pakistan in their final ICC World Cup 2023 match on Saturday, November 11. The famed Eden Gardens Stadium will host this clash, scheduled to begin at 2:00 PM IST. Defending champions England are already out of contention for the semi-finals following a disastrous campaign, with just two wins and six defeats in their eight matches so far. However, they had something to cherish in their previous match as they got the better of Netherlands by 160 runs. Batting first, the Jos Buttler-led side posted a mammoth 339/9 courtesy of Ben Stokes' superb 84-ball 108.
