Teams Overview

Pakistan, the defending champions, has endured a disappointing campaign, suffering defeats against New Zealand and India. Despite their strong squad and home advantage, Mohammad Rizwan’s side has struggled to find its rhythm with both bat and ball. They will look to end their tournament on a high note in front of the home crowd.

Bangladesh, on the other hand, has also had a tough run, showing glimpses of promise but failing to convert performances into victories. The Najmul Hossain Shanto-led team will aim to sign off with a win after pushing both India and New Zealand in their previous matches.

Pitch Report

The Rawalpindi surface has been challenging for batters early on, offering movement and bounce to the pacers. However, as the game progresses, the pitch tends to settle, making stroke play easier. Teams winning the toss might prefer to bowl first, considering the conditions that favor seamers in the initial overs.
