What to expect: There has been a lot of rain in Manchester in the three days before this game which means the pitch will no doubt contain some moisture which the fast-bowlers on either side might be able to exploit. Generally, though, the Old Trafford pitch is one of the quickest and truest in the country which is perfect for T20 cricket. The forecast, as ever in Manchester, is mixed with showers forecast throughout Friday. Hopefully there will be enough dry spells to get the game in. Team News England Without the injured Jason Roy, Tom Banton will probably get a chance to impress at the top of the order after batting in the unfamiliar positions of four and five during the ODI series against Ireland. Joe Denly, who missed that series, could return to international action for the first time since being dropped from the Test team while David Willey, Chris Jordan and Tom Curran will likely get the first chance to impress in the fast-bowling department. Possible XI: Jonny Bairstow, Tom Banton, Dawid Malan, Eoin Morgan, Sam Billings, Joe Denly, Moeen Ali, David Willey, Tom Curran, Chris Jordan, Adil Rashid Pakistan The tourists have a 17-man squad for this series which gives them plenty of options. Mohammad Rizwan's excellent Test series may prompt Pakistan to select him as the wicket-keeper over former captain Sarfraz Ahmed while Babar Azam spoke highly of Shadab Khan's credentials in the pre-match press conference. As such, Khan looks likely to form a twin spin attack with Imad Wasim. Wahab Riaz and Mohammad Amir should add plenty of experience and class to the fast-bowling department. Possible XI: Fakhar Zaman, Babar Azam, Mohammad Hafeez, Haider Ali, Shoaib Malik, Shadab Khan, Mohammad Rizwan, Imad Wasim, Wahab Riaz, Mohammad Amir, Shaheen Shah Afridi Squads: England Squad: Tom Banton, Jonny Bairstow(w), Dawid Malan, Eoin Morgan(c), Sam Billings, Moeen Ali, Tom Curran, David Willey, Chris Jordan, Adil Rashid, Saqib Mahmood, Joe Denly, Lewis Gregory Pakistan Squad: Babar Azam(c), Fakhar Zaman, Haider Ali, Shoaib Malik, Sarfaraz Ahmed(w), Iftikhar Ahmed, Imad Wasim, Shadab Khan, Mohammad Amir, Wahab Riaz, Shaheen Afridi, Mohammad Hafeez, Mohammad Rizwan, Khushdil Shah, Naseem Shah, Mohammad Hasnain, Haris Rauf
