T20 World Cup 2026: Match 45, ENG vs PAK, Probable Playing 11, Where To Watch, Live Streaming Details
England and Pakistan face off in Match 44 of the T20 World Cup 2026 Super Eights on February 24 at Pallekele, with live coverage available on JioStar Network and streaming on JioHotstar
England (ENG) and Pakistan (PAK) are set to face off in Match 45 of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2026 Super Eights at the Pallekele International Cricket Stadium, Pallekele, on Tuesday, February 24. After securing a dominant, 51-runs-over-Sri-Lanka victory, England goes into this fixture full of confidence. Batting first, they scored 146 runs (ninth wicket) – Phil Salt was the highest scorer, amassing 62 runs in a calm and composed manner. While 146 was not a large total, England's bowling unit bowled tightly enough to ensure that it would be adequate for the day.
England's bowlers set the tone early by dismissing Sri Lanka's batting order in the powerplay. Will Jacks had a fantastic match, taking 3 wickets for 22 runs, and Jofra Archer picked up important early wickets that saw the Sri Lanka side struggling at 34 runs for five wickets after only six overs. Following this, Sri Lanka could not recover and were ultimately bowled out for 95 runs in 16.4 overs. England's comprehensive victory earned them two valuable points and significantly increased their net run rate. On the other hand, Pakistan's first match of the Super Eight against New Zealand in Colombo was rained out, resulting in both teams sharing the points.
