London: Pakistan’s batting against England continues in the fourth T20 match of the series. The match was briefly stopped earlier due to rain, but resumed almost 12 minutes later. Before the match was halted, Pakistan scored 91 runs for the loss of 5 wickets in 10.4 overs.
England won the toss and chose to bowl in the match being played at The Oval Ground in London. The first match of the series was scheduled to take place in Leeds on May 22, while the third T20, scheduled in Cardiff’s Sophia Gardens on May 28, was also canceled due to rain.
In the second T20 match on May 25, England defeated Pakistan by 23 runs, taking a 0-1 lead in the series. According to media reports, security for Pakistani cricketers in England has been increased, following a request by PCB Chairman Mohsin Khan to enhance security measures.
This decision comes after videos of Captain Babar Azam being surrounded outside a hotel went viral.
