In the 2023 World Cup, the Pakistan Cricket team is teetering on the brink of elimination after enduring four consecutive defeats. Tomorrow, the Green Shirts are preparing for a crucial match against Bangladesh. The following players are expected to make up the playing XI for this important encounter:
- Abdullah Shafique
- Imam-ul-Haq
- Babar Azam (c)
- Mohammad Rizwan (wk)
- Saud Shakeel
- Iftikhar Ahmed
- Usama Mir
- Hasan Ali
- M. Wasim Jr.
- Shaheen Afridi
- Haris Rauf
In their previous game against South Africa, Shadab Khan suffered a shoulder injury while fielding, necessitating his departure from the field. Usama Mir stepped in as his replacement and played a pivotal role, taking two crucial wickets. As a result, there is a high likelihood that Usama Mir will replace Shadab Khan in tomorrow’s playing XI.
Additionally, Hasan Ali was unavailable in the previous game due to illness, and Mohammad Wasim Jr. filled in admirably, also taking two significant wickets. With Hasan now recovered, he is expected to replace Mohammad Nawaz, who has had a forgettable tournament so far.

The batting department has displayed solid performances in the tournament, and no changes are anticipated in the batting lineup. Openers Abdullah Shafique and Imam-ul-Haq are expected to provide a strong start, while skipper Babar Azam is set to exhibit his batting prowess. In the middle order, Saud Shakeel and Iftikhar Ahmed aim to contribute to a competitive total.
It’s important to note that Pakistan has suffered four consecutive defeats in the tournament, making the upcoming match against Bangladesh a must-win to remain in contention.
On the other hand, Bangladesh has only secured one victory in six matches, defeating Afghanistan, and currently occupies the 9th spot in the points table. Tomorrow’s match is equally crucial for them, as they must secure a win.
The Pakistan vs. Bangladesh Cricket World Cup match will be held at Eden Gardens, commencing at 1:30 PM Pakistan Standard Time on October 31, 2023. Here are the fixture details:
