England vs Pakistan: How to pick the winning Dream11?
What's the story
ICC World Cup 2019 favorites England host Pakistan in match number six at Trent Bridge on Monday.
Hosts England got off to a stunning start in their 2019 World Cup journey.
Pakistan suffered big time against West Indies.
Fans playing the Dream11 need to pick a winning team.
Here we decode the same.
Batting
A quality batting unit on offer
Jason Roy's aggression and form could help England at the top and he opens the batting alongside Imam-ul-Haq, who would be wanting to fire in this match.
Both have the quality to make their presence felt.
Babar Azam (vice-captain) comes in next.
The middle order is bolstered by the likes of Eoin Morgan (captain) and wicket-keeper batsman Jos Buttler.
Both players are match-winners.
Information
Stokes, Imad are the two all-roounders
Ben Stokes will look to carry on from where he left off against South Africa. The southpaw looks in a good shape and that promises aplenty for the Three Lions. Pakistan's Imad Wasim gets a crack in this playing XI. He needs to deliver badly.
Bowling
A strong bowling quartet in the mix
Jofra Archer leads this bowling line-up.
The in-form pacer will look to make his presence felt once again.
Mohammad Amir, who picked up three wickets in the first game, gets a chance.
Shaheen Afridi is set to make a comeback and he adds more freshness to the pace attack.
Experienced leg-spinner Adil Rashid fits in as the main lone spinner.
Information
Rationale behind the Dream11 team
We have gone for strong run-scorers in the batting department. All five batsmen can turn on the heat at Trent Bridge. Stokes is the main asset in that all-round department. The bowling unit has genuine wicket-takers and energy to contain with. It's a winning outfit.
