England are set to host Pakistan for a six-match limited-overs series starting July 8. The Men in Green will first engage in a three-match ODI series before playing the shortest format of the game. The three-match T20I series would serve as a preparation for the two sides ahead of the upcoming T20 World Cup.
The Babar Azam-led side will take the field confidently having played the T20 league. Meanwhile, the Three Lions, who recently won the ODI series against Sri Lanka, would like to continue their form. Notably, England won the three-match ODI series 2-0. Ben Stokes and company will be eyeing to carry the momentum against the visitors.
