Bangladesh’s poor form in T20Is has continued into this series, losing seven consecutive games. They’ve already lost the series, and there’s still one match to go.
Pakistan is fully prepared to win the series 3-0. They had to work hard to win the first T20I, while the second T20I was easy to win by 8 wickets. Babar Azam was dismissed for low scores in both matches, which is an unusual occurrence for Pakistan.
Weather
Both sides should be greeted with a clear sky, and the temperature is forecast to be between 25~31°C.
Pitch
The Shere Bangla National Stadium’s pitch is sluggish. The new ball hits the bat wonderfully, but the pitch slows down as the game progresses, which will help spinners. On the day, both sides’ spinners are expected to play a crucial role.
