ENG vs PAK head-to-head stats and records you need to know before England vs Pakistan 2023 World Cup match

England will take on Pakistan in match number 44 of the 2023 World Cup at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata on Saturday. This will be the second match of the double-header and will begin at 2:00 PM IST. While Pakistan are fifth in the points table, England have moved up to the seventh position.

Mathematically, Pakistan are still in with a chance of finishing in the top four. Practically, though, it’s mission impossible for them. Sample this. If Pakistan bat first and score 300, they need to restrict England to 13. If they bowl out England for 20, Babar Azam and company need to chase the target in 1.3 overs. They will rue some of the missed chances earlier in the tournament, particularly the one-wicket loss to South Africa.

England finally had something to cheer about following their 160-run win over the Netherlands. Ben Stokes’ return to form with a hundred was a big positive. Their bowlers also did well in the game. England, though, still need to beat Pakistan to keep their 2025 Champions Trophy qualification hopes alive.
