Reserve wicket-keeper Matt Prior is hoping to open the innings for England in the first of five one-dayers against Pakistan in Lahore on Saturday.
Prior made an attractive 72 at the top of the order in the tourists' warm-up defeat by Pakistan A on Wednesday.
The 23-year-old Sussex star said: "I'll be happy playing in any position for England but if I was opening the batting I would absolutely love it.
"That's where I enjoy playing the most, especially in one-day cricket."
Prior regularly opens for his county in limited-overs games and says it is the best position to build a big score from - once any early seam and swing movement has been negotiated.
"I feel I play my most natural game there," he explained. "The new ball does a bit but if you can get through that bit it's OK.
"At the beginning there is an opportunity to attack and when you get through that stage you try and accumulate your runs."
Regular gloveman Geraint Jones played in all three Tests but Prior has been tipped to feature prominently in the one-day internationals.
"I don't know where or how I will be involved. Some people say super-sub, others the top of the order," he added.
"I don't really know, it's out of my hands and when I get the opportunity all I can do is take advantage of it."
Meanwhile, Pakistan coach Bob Woolmer says his side's 2-0 triumph in the Test series does not mean they are favourites to win the shorter games.
The hosts have won their last seven one-dayers but Woolmer said: "We haven't played one-day cricket for three and a half months.
"In sport, if you leave something and then come back to it, you have to re-learn it a bit.
"We start the series knowing it is 50-50 between us and England. I don't believe in psychological advantages.
"The team is winning and winning breeds confidence but this is a new tournament."
Captain Inzamam-ul-Haq is hoping for a big crowd at the Gadaffi Stadium on Saturday.
Proceeds from ticket sales will go to a relief fund for survivors of the October earthquake, which killed more than 73,000 people in Pakistan and left 3.5 million homeless.
"I appeal to cricket fans to fill the stadium to capacity so that we can raise a big amount," Inzamam said.
"All those survivors are hit hard by the winter and snow, so we must do more for them.
Pakistan donated 10% of their Test series earnings to the relief fund, while England gave £100,000 and took part in a golf event in Lahore which raised about £30,000 more.
I have decided to get up EARLY on Saturday to watch this so they best f***ing play him. I can't see him taking the gloves from Jones but surely he's worth a shot. Get that knobber Strauss out the side.
