Pakistan opted to field against England in the first match of the ODI tri-series at Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore on Sunday. Captain Shaheen Afridi announced that all-rounder Razaullah would make his ODI debut, adding to the team alongside Shadab Khan, who replaced Naseem Shah who injured his finger during warm-ups and Faheem Ashraf, who was not selected.
The Pakistan Cricket Board is promoting breast cancer awareness by having the players wear pink kits. Shaheen explained that Pakistan wanted to bolster their spin department by including Shadab. England made two changes, with debutant Henry Crocombe coming in for Josh Tongue, while Adil Rashid was not in the squad. Pakistan has won both matches in the tri-series and need one more win to secure a spot in the final on October 31.
England, losing their first two games, will be eliminated if they lose again. Sri Lanka has also competed in the tri-series, winning one of their games so far.
