BAN vs PAK 1st ODI, Cricket Tips: Bangladesh and Pakistan will be up against each other for a three-match ODI series. The first ODI will be held at Shere Bangla National Stadium on Wednesday at 1:45 PM IST. Pakistan had yet another ICC event, where they failed to make it to the knockouts. That resulted in Pakistan dropping several superstars.
Babar Azam, Saim Ayub, Shadab Khan, Mohammad Nawaz, and Fakhar Zaman will not be in action. Shaheen Afridi will lead a second-string side, which has new faces like Maaz Sadaqat, Saad Masood, Shamyl Hussain, and Ghazi Ghori. Bangladesh have all their aces up their sleeves, and they have a chance to beat Pakistan in this series.

BAN vs PAK: Ground Pitch Report
The wicket in Dhaka is very good for the slow bowlers. There will be assistance for the seamers with the new ball, and spinners will have a big role in the match. There is a prediction of rain, and chasing will be recommended in this situation. It is a low-scoring venue.
BAN vs PAK: Possible XIs
Bangladesh: Najmul Hossain Shanto, Soumya Sarkar, Saif Hassan, Tawhid Hridoy, Litton Das (wk), Mehidy Hasan Miraz (c), Mahidul Islam Bhuiyan, Rishad Hossain, Tanvir Islam, Mustafizur Rahman, Taskin Ahmed

BAN vs PAK: Player to Watch Out For
Probable Best Batter
Sahibzada Farhan was the top scorer in the T20 World Cup 2026. He is in red-hot form and will look to cash in on this ODI series. For Bangladesh, Litton Das is the key. He will be the one to watch out for.
Probable Best Bowler
Abrar Ahmed will be very deceptive on this slow track in Dhaka and will be tough to face. For Bangladesh, Rishad Hossain has been the go-to spinner in the middle overs.
Today Match Prediction: Pakistan have a great record against Bangladesh, but their current squad is inexperienced with the bat. Hence, we predict Bangladesh to beat Pakistan in the first ODI.
