Babar Azam's men currently sit just outside the top four, two points worse off than the Kiwis, who have the superior NRR despite Fakhar Zaman's heroics with the bat last week. That means Pakistan must win and win big – by 287 runs, to be precise – in order to stand any chance of progressing to the semi-finals.
England, whose victory over the Netherlands was their first in nearly a month, are not just playing for pride but qualification for the 2025 Champions Trophy. They've never failed to make the grade before, but are now in a legitimate four-way battle with fellow strugglers Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and the Netherlands.
