However, under the leadership of Mohammad Rizwan, Pakistan, and under the leadership of Najmul Hossain Shanto, Bangladesh, both teams will aim to win their last match and bid a respectable farewell to the tournament. Therefore, the match between the two teams is expected to be exciting.
Weather Forecast
The weather in Rawalpindi has been inclement for the past few days. Cloudy conditions and the possibility of rain in the afternoon are predicted for the match between Pakistan and Bangladesh on Thursday. There is an approximately 88% chance of rain in Rawalpindi. The temperature during this period may remain around 20 degrees Celsius. Due to the rain, the campaigns of Pakistan and Bangladesh may end with a disappointing farewell. Rain led to the cancellation of the Australia and South Africa match without a toss last Tuesday.
Pitch Report
The Rawalpindi pitch is generally considered favourable for batting, but due to the changing weather, fast bowlers may get some initial assistance. However, as the match progresses, it is likely to become more batsman-friendly. Meanwhile, spinners may get some help if the pitch surface deteriorates.
