I know the new England squad which they have put out has been termed as "England Lions", which is a true statement. But they still have players like Ben Stokes, Vince and Malan who are definitely all international quality players. It will therefore still be a hell of a task for Pakistan to beat this side.

I'd say it will be a huge achievement for Pakistan to beat them 3-0 in their own conditions. The series victory will be historic and we will also rise to number 1 in the Super League Rankings. Therefore, I believe a 3-0 victory even against this "England Lions" team will be a huge achievement


Your thoughts?
 
We will be lucky to even win 1 match. Such a mediocre soft side. Team full of players that average 50 thanks to minnow bashing for years.
 
Lol playing all 50 overs will be a great achievement looking at the way things have started
 
You’re right, winning 3 matches will be a very big achievement for this side lol. Pakistan looking incredibly poor.
 
I would be sceptical about Pakistan winning 3-0 against even an English U15 schoolboy XI - even there they will be 20 odd for 4 in at least one game.

They were 20 odd for 3 when I wrote the above post a few minutes ago but I had a sixth sense feeling another one was about to fall.. and now Pak are 26-4.
 
England reserve players are far more talented, skilled and mentally stronger than our main players.

Babar is such an awful batsman. Even an Indian second string team has as good or better batsman than Babar like Dhawan, Rahul, Agarwal and Iyer.

He’s had one bad game chill out. I’m sure he’ll come back better in the other games, he always does
 
England reserves are capable of being a top 5 side in ODI cricket, but I would have expected the more experienced Pakistan batsman to show up in this series
 
Our top order can't put bat to ball and our bowlers cannot pitch the ball in the right areas consistently.

However, we can dye our hair maroon, put a hairband on, and shout in the field.

Pakistan needs to hold a 7-match series against Zimbabwe asap to closely win 4-3 and feel good about our sorry selves.

And our batsman to top up their averages.
