The reading
Pakistan and England meet at the Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore in the fourth match of the Pakistan ODI Tri-Series, with Sri Lanka the third side in the event. The first ball is due at 1:00 PM local time, 1:30 PM IST.
This is the most one-sided reading on Sunday's slate. CrikTrik's call is Pakistan for the toss and Pakistan for the match.
The day's numbers: 25 October reduces to 7, Ketu, and Sunday is ruled by the Sun.
The toss reading rests on the captains' names. CrikTrik scores each name exactly as it appears on the official squad page, checking the ICC first. The ICC lists the Pakistan captain as Shaheen Afridi, and that form reduces to 1, the Sun's number, which is the strongest score a name can get on a Sunday. The Pakistan board's own release uses a longer form of the name that would read very differently, so CrikTrik sticks to its published rule and goes with the ICC version. England's captain, Harry Brook, reduces to 4, Rahu, a poor fit with the Sun.
The match reading is just as clear. Pakistan reduces to Ketu's 7, matching the date, and PAK sits well with both planets. England and ENG land on Saturn and Rahu, the two planets least comfortable beside the Sun.
Folklore, not form. Whatever happens in Lahore, the call is logged on the track record as a hit or a miss.
