Pakistan and Bangladesh will be eyeing a much-needed win when they take on each other in the ninth game of the ongoing ICC Champions Trophy 2025. The game will be taking place on Thursday (February 27) at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium.
Both teams have already been knocked out of the tournament after losing their first two group games. Pakistan, who are also the defending champions, began their campaign with a dismal 60-run loss against New Zealand before suffering a 6-wicket loss at the hands of their bitter rivals India.
On the other hand, Bangladesh's campaign got underway with a 6-wicket defeat against India. In their second game, they suffered a 5-wicket defeat at the hands of New Zealand.
As Bangladesh and Pakistan now gear up for their last game of the tournament, we are taking a look at the weather and pitch report.
