Group stage (Group A) — 1979 Cricket World Cup

Result: ENEngland — England won by 14 runs. ENEngland 165/9 (60 overs), PAPakistan 151 all out (56 overs). June 16, 1979 · Headingley, Leeds.

Played on an overcast, seam-friendly Headingley pitch; a 43-run 9th-wicket stand between Bob Taylor and Bob Willis was crucial to England reaching 165, at the time the lowest total successfully defended in a World Cup match. Hendrick's spell triggered a collapse in which Pakistan lost 6 wickets for 7 runs at one stage. Both teams had already qualified for the semi-finals before this match, but the result determined which of them would face West Indies.
