ICC Champions Trophy 2017, England vs Pakistan: 5 things Pakistan should do to beat England

#4 Spinners to strangle the run flow

Imad Wasim can bowl a frustrating stump to stump line akin to what he did against the Proteas

What Mohammad Hafeez and Imad Wasim did to perfection against South Africa was bowling tight stump to stump lines and restricting the flow of runs. Eventually, the pressure built and Hashim Amla wicket was the result. Wasim then went on to dismiss De Villiers first ball and the game had turned on its head.

The duo will need to do something similar against England. If they can put a lid on the scoring rate, England will be under pressure. They aren't the best players of spin and Wasim and Hafeez have the skills to contain the run rate. Their strangling will be crucial to Pakistan's chances in the semi-final.
