Pakistan and Bangladesh face off in Rawalpindi, both seeking redemption after disappointing ICC Champions Trophy performances.

Pakistan and Bangladesh, both eliminated from the ICC Champions Trophy 2025, are set to face each other in a crucial Group A match on February 27 at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium. This encounter comes after both teams suffered defeats against New Zealand and India, respectively, marking a disappointing tournament for both sides.

The match is scheduled to begin at 2:30 p.m. IST, and the Rawalpindi pitch is known for its balanced support for both pacers and batters, particularly favoring fast bowlers early in the innings. However, with a 70% chance of rain looming, the match could be affected, potentially reducing it from the standard 50 overs per side.

Pakistan`s predicted lineup features key players such as Babar Azam, Mohammad Rizwan, and Haris Rauf, while Bangladesh will rely on their captain Najmul Hossain Shanto and experienced players like Mushfiqur Rahim and Mahmudullah. Fans can catch the action live across various platforms, including Star Sports and JioHotstar in India, Nagorik TV and Toffee in Bangladesh, and PTV and Ten Sports in Pakistan.
