Pre-Match Analysis:
Pakistan have bolstered their side more than ever before and there is no doubt that they deserved to be at the No.1 spot in the ICC Men’s ODI Rankings. They lit up the tournament with a whopping 238-run win over Nepal and shared points with arch-rivals India when Rain played a spoilsport at the end of the halfway mark. They didn’t get the opportunity to bat while their bowlers restricted Men in Blue for 266 runs with their pace trio Shaheen Afridi, Haris Rauf, and Naseem Shah sharing the wickets. They are going with an unchanged eleven for this match as well.
Bangladesh who lost badly against Sri Lanka in their opening contest regained their form back at the right time to knock down spirited Afghanistan by 89 runs. Mehidy Hasan Miraz was promoted up the order and it turned out really well as the all-rounder struck an excellent 112 runs and Najmul Hossain Shanto who is in the form of his life delivered yet again with a crafty 104-run knock. Pacers Taskin Ahmed and Shoriful Islam got the honors for their disciplined show as the duo picked up 7 wickets between them which helped to keep Afghanistan for 245 runs on the board. Liton Das is back in the squad after recovering from a fever but they going to miss their key batter Najmul Hossain Shanto due to a hamstring injury.
