Pakistan host Bangladesh at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium for the first of a two test
match series. The upcoming Test Series are critical for both teams in the ICC World Test Championship 2023-25 cycle.
Pakistan, currently ranked sixth with a points percentage (PCT) of 36.7, has won 2 out of 5 Tests in this cycle. Bangladesh, ranked 8th, has only 1 win in 4 matches.

Bangladesh is dealing with political turmoil at home, which affected their preparation. They had to arrive in Pakistan early and have faced setbacks, including the injury of regular opener Mahmudul Hasan Joy, who is ruled out of the first Test due to a groin strain. Mushfiqur Rahim also suffered a finger injury, but Nayeem Hasan performed well in the warm-up match.
Pakistan is planning to field an all-pace attack for the first time at home since December 2019. Leg-spinner Abrar Ahmed has been released from the squad, while pacers Naseem Shah, Shaheen Shah Afridi, Khurram Shehzad, Mir Hamza, and Mohammad Ali will lead the bowling attack.

Pakistan and Bangladesh have previously met in 13 tests and the Tigers have never beaten Pakistan in red ball cricket.
