PAK vs BAN Head-to-head stats and records you need to know before Pakistan vs Bangladesh 2023 World Cup match

Pakistan will take on Bangladesh in match number 31 of the 2023 World Cup at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata on Tuesday, October 31. This will be a day-night game and will begin at 2:00 PM IST. Pakistan are languishing in seventh position in the points table, with just four points from six matches. They have lost their last four games. As for Bangladesh, they are in ninth position with just one victory from six games.

Pakistan’s hopes of finishing in the top four are slim following their recent string of losses. But they would like to keep their mathematical hopes alive with a win over Bangladesh. In their last match, they went down to South Africa by one wicket, failing to defend a total of 270. There is too much off-field controversy surrounding Pakistan cricket, the latest being Inzamam-ul-Haq’s resignation as chief selector amid conflict of interest allegations.

Speaking of controversy, Bangladesh captain Shakib Al Hasan admitted after his team’s loss to Netherlands that his spat with Tamim Iqbal might have affected the morale of the team. He also conceded that Bangladesh’s ongoing campaign can be considered as their worst in World Cups. Can Bangladesh salvage some pride?
