England and Pakistan will meet in Match 5 of the Super 8 stage in the 2026 ICC T20 World Cup on Tuesday afternoon at the Pallekele Cricket Stadium in Kandy. The Poms lead Group 2, while the Shaheens are in third place. Let’s get into the match prediction.
After a mixed group-stage campaign, England produced their best performance of this year’s World Cup in their first match of the Super 8s, beating Sri Lanka comprehensively by 51 runs on Sunday afternoon.
Phil Salt played a starring role against the Lions with 62 runs, but Jacob Bethell is still the team’s top scorer in the competition with 146 in five innings. Adil Rashid and Jofra Archer have taken eight wickets apiece so far.
England have now won 13 of their last 15 T20 matches, with their only defeats coming against the West Indies and South Africa.
Meanwhile, Pakistan finished second behind India in Group A of the competition before their opening Super 8s match against New Zealand was abandoned due to rain on Saturday.
Despite that result, Sahibzada Farhan is still the top run-scorer in the competition with 220 runs, while Usman Tariq is the team’s leading wicket-taker with eight scalps in four matches.
The Shaheens have won 12 of their last 15 T20I games, but they have lost their last six against this opponent in the shortest format.
