ENG vs PAK Prediction: Pakistan’s tour of England will get underway today with 1st of the three ODIs set to be played in Sophia Gardens in Cardiff. England will be taking the field with an in-experienced squad led by Ben Stokes since few players who featured in the Sri Lanka series were infected with the Covid-19 virus. This will help Pakistan to have an upper hand over the hosts as they are in England with a full-strength squad led by Babar Azam.

Win Prediction
ENG – 40%
PAK- 60%
England has assembled a fairly inexperienced squad due to the current circumstances. A majority of their top-tier players are isolated now since some members of the squad that played against Sri Lanka have been infected with Covid-19. So the English players who are in this squad, of which the majority of them are non-permanent members in the national set-up will be hoping to make this opportunity count.
Pakistan on the other hand is at full strength and will start as favorites for this series. But with the talent pool that England possesses in white-ball cricket, they cannot be completely counted out.
Prominent betting sites are predicting Pakistan to win this match.
