As the 2022 T20 World Cup approaches, there is a clear trend that is visible in the Pakistan cricket team’s performance. The side is increasingly looking over-reliant on openers Babar Azam and Mohammed Rizwan. The same was visible in Tuesday’s tri-nation series match against New Zealand in which Pakistan lost by nine wickets. Babar Azam
Cricket Australia is contemplating lifting David Warner‘s lifetime leadership ban as soon as Friday, with directors looking at rewriting the organisation’s code of ethics.

West Indies have already visited Pakistan twice in the last 10 months, albeit because the Covid-19 pandemic split one white-ball series in December 2021 into two. The two sides played three T20Is that month, before a Covid outbreak in the West Indies camp meant the subsequent ODIs had to be postponed to June this year.
England 178 for 7 (Malan 82, Moeen 44, Stoinis 3-34, Zampa 2-26) beat Australia 170 for 6 (Marsh 45, David 40, Curran 3-25) by eight runs Dawid Malan showcased his liking for Australian conditions with a blistering 82 then Sam Curran again held his nerve with the ball, as England wrapped up the T20I series
