Pakistan vs England Head to Head Records and Stats – ODIs & T20Is

The rivalry between England and Pakistan goes back to 1974. The two teams met in a limited-overs ODI match for the first time in 1974 at Nottingham. While it was Pakistan who won the inaugural match convincingly by a margin of 7 wickets, England has thereafter been a tough opponent for the ‘Men in Green'.

England's superior show against Pakistan is evident even in the last 10 head-to-head encounters between the two teams. With a 6-3 lead in the last ten matches, England has posed a lot of questions for Pakistan in the recent past.

A lot of recent ENG vs PAK matches have been high-scoring encounters, especially due to the flat nature of wickets in England.

As Pakistan embark upon another limited-overs tour to the UK in 2021, the Babar Azam-led side will be aiming to better their numbers against England.

Pakistan's failure against England were quite evident in the recently concluded three-match ODI series. The visitors faced a major hammering after being whitewashed 3-0 by a second-string England side. It was a moment of absolute shame for the Babar Azam-led side which drew critiscism from all corners for their below par performance against the hosts
