Pakistan vs Bangladesh Preview


This game has nothing but pride riding on it. Both teams are out of the competition already, so if the weather allows, I fancy the tournament hosts to get the win with Saud Shakeel to score runs.

  • Pakistan have won their last 3 ODI matches against Bangladesh.
  • Pakistan have lost 4 of their last 5 ODI matches.

  • Bangladesh’s Najmul Hossain Shanto scored 77 runs in his last match.

Head to Head


Pakistan have won their last three ODIs against Bangladesh.

Pakistan Form


Pakistan have only pride to play for in this final group fixture as they can no longer reach the semi-final after suffering two defeats in their opening two games.

Last time out, Pakistan had to travel to Dubai to face India. Their batsmen again failed to make the desired impact, reaching 241 in 50 overs. Saud Shakeel top scored with 62 runs while Mohammad Rizwan added 46.

India chased the total down with ease, winning by six wickets with more than seven overs to spare.

Pakistan Injuries & Team News


Fakhar Zaman has been missed through injury and the Pakistan team has felt his absence. I don’t think they will make changes to their batting lineup despite it being a dead rubber.

Bangladesh Form


Much like the hosts, this is a dead rubber for Bangladesh who lost their opening two games of the tournament. 

Their last fixture ended in a five-wicket loss to New Zealand in Rawalpindi. Batting first, Najmul Hossain Shanto held things together with 77 runs, but he lacked support from the middle order. The 236-run total was never enough.

New Zealand cruised to victory in the 47th over for the loss of just five wickets.

Bangladesh Injuries & Team News


Bangladesh have only pride to play for and may look to give some other squad members a run in this final game.

Verdict

Pakistan are backed to end their campaign with a win with Saud Shakeel scoring runs.
