The batters are expected to enjoy the pace and bounce that the surface will offer and can trust the latter to play their shots right from the first ball.

The pitch at this venue has historically been full of runs, and the ground has witnessed several high-scoring games, especially in the shortest format of the game at the international level

If we look at the records of the matches played in Lahore during the recently concluded edition of PSL, the tournament had certain high-scoring clashes, especially in the second half of the league

Dew is expected to play a major role in this particular game, and the team that wins the toss might look to bowl first.

Having said that majority of the matches at this ground have been won by the team that bats first, and both teams will look to follow the trend in the upcoming game on Wednesday.

A score of 220-230 can be a winning total on this surface, which has witnessed some high-scoring matches.

If Bangladesh bats first, then the Litton Das-led side will have to score more than 200 runs on the board, taking into account the inexperience in the team's bowling lineup

If the Bangladesh batters can post an above-par total, the team will have a high chance of winning the game.

The onus will be on Bangladesh's openers to get the team off to a solid start to entertain their chances of clinching the game.

For Pakistan, a lot will depend on how their fast bowlers bowl, especially with the new ball.

If Pakistani Bowlers can dismiss Bangladesh's top order early, then the 2009 T20 World Cup champions will increase their chances of registering a win.

Along with the bowlers, Pakistan would want their batters to put their hands up and take the responsibility of guiding the team to a match-winning total while batting first.

Conclusion

Pakistan would like to win the game against Bangladesh to get their confidence back after some below-par performances in international cricket in the recent past.

Bangladesh, on the other hand, would like to put on an improved performance than what they delivered in a shocking series defeat against the UAE.
