Preview

Bangladesh and Pakistan will face each other in the two matches of the Test series, which will take place on August 21 in Rawalpindi and August 30 at the National Cricket Stadium in Karachi. Notably, this marks Bangladesh's first tour to Pakistan after 2020, when they played the three T20Is in Lahore and the one-off Test in Rawalpindi. The forthcoming series marks preparation for the World Test Championship Final in 2025. 

The Men in Green are currently sitting in the fifth spot, while Bangladesh is languishing in the eighth spot in the points table. The Bangla Tigers arrived in Lahore on August 13 after political turmoil in their nation disrupted their preparations ahead of the two matches of the Test series.

Bangladesh, in spite of the challenges posed by the ongoing social unrest, is keen to win a series, boost national morale, and strengthen its record against Pakistan. On the other hand, Pakistan's focus will be on increasing its advantage over Bangladesh and topping the World Test Championship table. Notably, both sides aim to mark their presence in the 2025 WTC Final after failing to get the top two spots in the 2021 and 2023 WTC cycles. 

It will be interesting to see how these two sides perform in order to topple Australia and India, respectively, who are sitting at the top of the WTC cycle.

As the team gears up for the upcoming clash, all eyes will be on the thrilling competition set to unfold on the cricket field. Ahead of the game, here is a look at the Dream11 predictions, the fantasy tips, the pitch report, the top player picks, and the best-predicted XIs for the fantasy contests of the match.

Injury and availability news

No injuries have been reported so far and both sides sets to play with their full-strengthen squad.

Pitch Report

As per emerging pictures, the surface at Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium contains live grass. So, besides the new ball swing, expect some extra bounce and seam movement from the fast bowlers. However, the conditions will ease out eventually, with the batters enjoying their time in the middle from the third day onwards. The spinners will get a hint of turn throughout the game. Considering the seam-friendly conditions, the toss-winner might bowl first.
