England vs Pakistan 4th T20I Live Updates: Pakistan will face England in the fourth and final T20I of the four-match series in London on Thursday (May 30). The final international match before the start of the T20 World Cup 2024 is scheduled to be played at the Kennington Oval. The hosts are leading the series 1-0 after winning the second match in Birmingham by 23 runs on May 25. The first and third matches in Leeds and Cardiff were called off due to rain, and rain is likely to spoil the match in London on Thursday.
Wearing green uniforms, England will be hoping to beat England in the fourth T20I to draw the series and travel with confidence to the United States for the T20 World Cup in 2024. England's white-ball captain Jos Buttler, who was not selected for the third T20I due to the birth of his third child, is almost certain to miss the fourth match as well.
Buttler was England's top run-scorer in the second T20I and his absence will be a big boost for the Men in Green. In his absence, Will Jacks or Jonny Bairstow will open the innings along with KKR star Phil Salt. As for Pakistan, Babar Azam's side are likely to leave Shadab Khan out of the opening line-up and field pacer Naseem Shah instead.
Throw it away: The toss is scheduled to take place at 10 p.m.
