Jos Buttler
Jos Buttler was in scintillating form in the 2nd T20I between Pakistan and England. He scored a quick 59 at the top of the order at a strike rate in excess of 150. Buttler will look to once again provide another excellent start for the England side when he takes guard in the third and final T20I.
Babar Azam
Babar Azam scored a classic 85 off 49 deliveries in the first T20I against England. Babar is a batsman who can pick the gaps in the field with precision, and is the talisman of the Pakistan batting lineup.
