Twitter reactions as new-look England beat Pakistan 3-0 | Fans react on Twitter. Inexperienced England beat Pakistan 3-0 in the ODI series

Unbelievable. England, who started the series with a completely new-look team, have achieved a 3-0 series whitewash.

Their opponents? The current Champions Trophy holders Pakistan, who won the trophy in England.

England’s white-ball depth is just unreal. Only the most optimistic England fan could have even thought of a 3-0 series victory with their whole first squad in isolation. Take a bow, James Vince. Saqib Mahmood should join him. As should Lewis Gregory, Brydon Carse and Phil Salt. The run-chase of 332 from a position of 165/5 shows that an England team, no matter the personnel, are never down and out.

For Pakistan, this series was nothing short of a major disappoinment. Favourites heading into it, they end it with a sense of embarrassment given that the England XI, excluding Ben Stokes, contained just 26 ODIs of experience before the series started.

Worse, of those 26, James Vince accounted for 16.

Despite Babar Azam’s superb 158, Pakistan’s ODI record vs top 4 ranked ODI teams (New Zealand, India, England, Australia) since the start of 2017 makes for even more grim reading. Yes, they won the Champions Trophy in that period, but they haven’t been able to match it with the best teams for long enough. Of 31 completed ODIs, Pakistan have won just six – a win percentage of a shocking 19.35%.

Here are some of the Twitter reactions from England’s superb series whitewash.


Credit to England. A simply superb achievement with such an inexperienced team. For Pakistan, they now have to pick themselves up and perform in the upcoming T20I series; a good test for them ahead of the T20 World Cup.
