Pakistan and England will play their last group stage match of the ICC ODI World Cup 2023 on Saturday, November 11, at Eden Gardens, Kolkata.
The reigning champions must be wondering when the ongoing World Cup 2023 will end, given the challenging tournament campaign they have endured. They only managed two victories out of the eight matches they played in the tournament, becoming the second team, after Bangladesh, to be eliminated.
On the other hand, Pakistan's chances of reaching the semifinals were all but extinguished following New Zealand's recent convincing victory over Sri Lanka. The Kiwis now stand as strong contenders for a top-four finish. Even if Pakistan defeats England, their path to the semifinals requires extraordinary efforts and a big margin of victory.
To sum it up, as the tournament concludes for both teams, their primary aim in this match is to secure a win, salvaging pride and garnering positives—the only remnants of significance for them in this tournament. However, before that, let’s take a look at the head-to-head record between England and Pakistan:
