ENG vs PAK Match Prediction & Analysis
Hosts England absolutely demolished the visitors Pakistan in the 1st Test match of the three match series. England now stand a chance to take an unassailable 2-0 lead in the series if they can win the 2nd Test that is to be played from 27 August at the Lord's Cricket Ground in London.
Despite the success of Bazball under Brendon McCullum’s coaching, England cricket team has been suffering with lack of performance in red ball cricket in the last 12-24 months, leading to the Kiwi coach’s removal from his position. Now the Three Lions seems to be gaining momentum once again as showcased by their strong showing vs Pakistan.
Also the visitors Pakistan cricket team, once one of the very best teams in all formats, have been struggling in Test cricket the last few years. In 2026, they have played 5 Tests so far and have won only once, including a 2-0 series defeat to Bangladesh.

TEAMS PREVIEW
England Preview
Hosts England have taken a 1-0 lead in the three-Test series after a dominant innings and 103 run victory over Pakistan in the first Test at Headingley. They will look to extend their advantage when the second Test begins at Lord’s and take an unassailable 2-0.
In the first Test, in their only innings, England posted a commanding 409 runs on the board. Harry Brook led the way with a fluent 91 runs off 93 balls with 97.85 strike rate, while Jordan Cox contributed a composed 73 on his return to the side.
Captain Joe Root continue to relish his brilliant form with another strong contribution of 66 runs, and Dan Lawrence added a valuable 51, ensuring the hosts built a substantial first-innings lead of 238 runs.
England’s pace attack was ruthless throughout. Ollie Robinson claimed five wickets in the first innings (5/51) and three more in the second (3/29) for a match haul of eight wickets, earning him the Player of the Match award.
Josh Tongue matched that effort with five wickets in the first innings (5/46) and three in the second (3/43). Jofra Archer also played a key role, taking 3 wickets in the second innings. The seamers shared all 20 wickets between them, exposing Pakistan’s batting repeatedly on a helpful surface and completing the win inside three days.
England Predicted Playing XI:
Ben Duckett, Emilio Gay, Jordan Cox, Joe Root (C), Harry Brook, Dan Lawrence, Jamie Smith (WK), Gus Atkinson, Ollie Robinson, Jofra Archer, Josh Tongue.

Pakistan Preview
In the first Test, Pakistan succumbed to England's pace threat and never managed to recover out of it, conceding a 1-0 lead and losing crucial World Test Championship points. They will now aim to avoid falling 2-0 down.
In the first innings, Pakistan were dismissed for 171 runs only. Abdullah Shafique top-scored with a determined 61 runs off 104 balls, while opening batter Imam-ul-Haq contributed 42 runs at the top. The rest of the batting line-up struggled against the English seam attack and were unable to build meaningful partnerships.
In their second innings, Pakistan batters were all out for 135 runs while trailing by 238 runs after the 1st innings. Mohammad Rizwan offered some resistance lower down the order with 41 runs, but the side collapsed once again as the entire batting line-up failed to provide support. Overall, the batting lacked consistency and application in challenging conditions.
With the ball, Ali Usman was the standout performer, taking 5 wickets (5/95) in England’s innings. Khurram Shahzad claimed 3 wickets, but the attack as a whole struggled to contain the English batters once partnerships began to develop.
Pakistan Predicted Playing XI:
Azan Awais, Imam-ul-Haq, Shan Masood, Abdullah Shafique, Saud Shakeel, Salman Agha (C), Mohammad Rizwan (WK), Ali Usman, Khurram Shahzad, Mohammad Abbas, Mohammad Ali.

PITCH AND WEATHER CONDITIONS
Weather Conditions
Throughout the next five days in London, expect a mix of sunny intervals and cloudy periods. Daytime highs around 22–26°C early in the period, cooling slightly later to about 13–17°C. Light to moderate winds are expected. There is an increasing chance of showers or rain, particularly from around 28–29 August onward, with some heavier spells or thunderstorms possible.
ENG vs PAK Pitch Report
The pitch at Lord’s traditionally offers early assistance to seam bowlers, aided by the famous slope (from the Pavilion End to the Nursery End) and any grass cover or moisture. This can produce swing and seam movement, especially under overcast conditions. The surface generally becomes more batting-friendly as the match progresses, with true bounce allowing batters to settle. Later stages may see some wear that brings spinners into play. Recent pitches have occasionally shown variable bounce, but the classic Lord’s surface aims for a balanced contest.
Toss: To Bowl
The captain who wins the toss, might want to bowl first. It's a balanced surface at Lord's but likely to be better to bat on day 2 and 3. The idea would be to get a big total on the board and put the opposition in trouble.
ENG vs PAK
Winning Prediction
England are strong favourites to take a 2-0 series lead. Their dominant pace attack, led by Ollie Robinson and Josh Tongue who shared 16 wickets in the first Test, combined with solid batting from Harry Brook, Joe Root and Jordan Cox, gives them a clear edge at Lord’s. Pakistan’s batting remains fragile after collapses of 171 and 135, making another heavy defeat likely.
