ENG Women Team News & Playing 11
ENG-W Team News
After a wobbly start England Women recovered to post an imposing total before their strong bowling line up proved too good for Pakistan Women’s batters in the first game of the series. Heather Knight’s side now come into this game looking to secure the series at the earliest opportunity.
ENG-W Team Batting
One of England Women’s strengths is the depth in their batting line-up which saw them not panic when they were 11/3 in the first WT20I and go on to post 163/6. However, in this game, we expect to see the top three of Maia Bouchier, Danni Wyatt and Alice Capsey amongst the runs.
ENG-W Team Bowling
Danielle Gibson was the only bowler in England Women’s attack to go wicketless at Edgbaston last weekend and it was Lauren Bell (3/22) and Sarah Glenn (4/12) who were the most impressive. We expect to see the same bowling unit selected for this game.
ENG-W Team Form
England Women come into this game targeting their fourth successive victory in this format.

PAK-W Team News
After losing their last WT20I series at home against West Indies Women, Pakistan Women already look likely to struggle across this series in England. However, although they lost the game, they will take confidence from how their bowling attack began the opening match.
PAK-W Team Batting
As is so often the case for Pakistan Women, only four players made double figures at Edgbaston in Saturday’s opening WT20I. Batting at number three, Sadaf Shamas impressed with 35 runs from 24 balls and the side will be looking to her again in this game to make an impact.
PAK-W Team Bowling
Opening bowlers Waheeda Akhtar and Sadia Iqbal both made early inroads into the England Women’s batting line-up in the first game and it would be no surprise to see them do so again in this match due to the attacking approach of their opponents. Tuba Hassan will also be a danger with the ball in hand on Friday.
PAK-W Team Form
Pakistan Women have lost their last two WT20Is and they looked out of their depth in English conditions in the opening game of this series.

🏆 ENG Women vs PAK Women Prediction
It would be a big surprise if England Women did not secure another comfortable win in this second WT20I, although there were some encouraging signs, particularly with the ball, for Pakistan Women at Edgbaston. There is still plenty more to come from England Women and we expect them to get another victory.
