#4 Pakistan

Pakistan’s strength lies in their variation in spin, with leggie Shadab Khan and left-arm orthodox spinner Imad Wasim set to procure all the turn that the pitch can offer. Wasim's drifters have been effective in all conditions while Shadab's return from injury and consistency will be key.

The 'Men in Green' also have experienced part-time spinners Mohammad Hafeez and Shoaib Malik in the line-up. Hafeez has taken 137 ODI wickets at an economy of 4.14. Malik even has a better record with 157 wickets at an economy of 4.66. However, unfortunately for Pakistan, out of these two experienced players, only one would find a place in the playing XI.


#3 England

Moeen Ali and Adil Rashid Shadab Khan

Among other things, England has variety in its spin bowling attack. They have off-spinner Moeen Ali, leg-spinner Adil Rashid and left-arm orthodox spinner Liam Dawson at their disposal.

Adil Rashid, with 133 wickets in 89 matches will be their main strike weapon for England if their pace bowlers fail to do the job while Moeen Ali's ability to hit the right areas and vary his line and length will be crucial on a pitch that offers some turn. .
