PAK vs ENG, 2nd T20I Preview

Babar Azam’s Pakistan will take on Moeen-Ali-led England in the second match of the seven-game T20I series at the National Stadium in Karachi on Thursday (September 22). The seven-match series is a build-up for both sides for the upcoming T20 World Cup 2022 next month. England opener Alex Hales felt like he was making his England debut again when he returned from a 3 1/2-year exile and anchored them to victory over Pakistan in the first Twenty20 of the series. Hales returned to England colors on Tuesday for the first time since his second failed test for recreational drugs forced him to miss the 2019 Cricket World Cup.
