It has been after the ICC Cricket World Cup 2015 when England has brought change in its way of playing.
Before this ODI series, both the teams played 4-match Test series which ended in a tie with each team winning two games.
Alastair Cook’s men racked up a one-day worldwide world record score of 444 in Nottingham to move into a 3-0 lead in the five-match series. They scored this much hell of runs with just losing 3 wickets in 50 overs.
England were breaking a 10-year-old one-day global record, set by Sri Lanka against Holland, and did so only from the final ball of the innings when Buttler smashed yet another boundary.
Will England go on to break yet more ODI records or can Pakistan finally arrest the host’s runs?
Not only batting but also on the bowling front, the Englishmen were aggressive and tight.
Woakes emerged with great credit, but none of the headlines, as England broke a raft of records in their series-sealing victory over Pakistan at Trent Bridge.
He believes England could well challenge their own new record, however, having now hit all their top five ODI totals in the space of the last 15 months – since they first topped 400 against New Zealand at Edgbaston. Barring ‘keeper Sarfraz Ahmed and to an extent Imad Wasim and Sharjeel Khan, the rest of the players have seem out of form.
In came giant paceman Mohammad Irfan, experienced seamer Umar Gul, batsman Mohammad Rizwan and Wasim.

Skipper Azhar Ali and coach Mickey Arthur have very little time to take Pakistan up the rankings considering the qualifiers for the 2019 World Cup commence next year. All-rounder Imad Wasim returns after recovering from a knee injury in place of Yasir Shah, while Mohammad Rizwan, tall fast bowler Mohammad Irfan and Umar Gul replaced Shoaib Malik, Mohammad Amir and Wahab Riaz.
