Pakistan vs Bangladesh Chance of Winning
Pakistan looked devastated after they lost a close game against South Africa. Pakistan managed to post up 270 runs on the scoreboard. South Africa got off to a good start as they were 121/3 but lost their way as South Africa lost four wickets for 25 runs. Pakistan fell short as South Africa won the game with one wicket to spare. Pakistan have lost four games in a row and need to win the remaining games if they aspire to make the playoffs.
Bangladesh has been a disappointment in the World Cup as they failed to show up in this tournament thus far. After a solid win in the opening game against Afghanistan, Bangladesh have lost five games in the row and with two points in six games, Bangladesh have been knocked out of the competition. As per our calculations, Pakistan are clear favourites in the upcoming game.
- Pakistan’s chances of winning - 78%
- Bangladesh’s chances of winning - 22%

Pakistan vs Bangladesh Prediction & Betting Tips 2023
Bangladesh lack fire power which is one of the key reasons why they have struggled in this tournament. In the six games thus far, Bangladesh averages 4.5 sixes a game. Even though Pakistan hasn’t been that great when it comes to scoring sixes, they average 5.33 sixes and have more than enough firepower to outscore Bangladesh in the upcoming fixture. We believe Pakistan would score more sixes than Bangladesh in the upcoming game.
Najmul Hossain Shanto had a good start to the tournament as he scored 59 in the opening game but since then his form has been a cause of concern for Bangladesh. In the six games, Shanto has scored 59, 0, 7, 8, 0 and 9 averaging 13.83 runs in the tournament. In the last five games, Shanto has single digit scores which makes us believe he would struggle to score well in the upcoming game against a quality bowling attack.

Pakistan vs Bangladesh Betting Odds
Pakistan to score more than Bangladesh in powerplay
Pakistan and Bangladesh head into this fixture in similar form. On one hand we have Pakistan who have lost four games on the bounce. On the other hand, Bangladesh have lost five games in a row and have struggled to compete in this tournament which has been a let down for the fans. Bangladesh has lacked fire power which has been one of the key reasons why they have struggled in the powerplay. In six games, Bangladesh has managed to score 44, 57, 46, 93, 35 and 39 averaging 52.33. The average looks overhyped as they scored 93 runs in powerplay against India but failed to make that count as Bangladesh was bowled out for 256. In each of the last two fixtures, Bangladesh has conceded more runs than they have scored in the first ten overs. On the other hand, even though Pakistan has lost the last four games, they have managed to score well in those games. In each of the last three games, Pakistan has managed to cross the 50 run mark and averages 52.16 in powerplay. We believe Pakistan would score more than Bangladesh in the powerplay and you should take this opportunity to make some great financial gains.

Pakistan vs Bangladesh Top Team Batters
Babar Azam to be Pakistan’s top batter
Babar Azam has managed to find his form scoring three half centuries in the last four games after what was a disappointing start for the Pakistan skipper. For Pakistan to have any chance of making the knockouts, Azam would need to convert his starts into big scores which we believe he would achieve against an ordinary Bangladesh bowling attack which makes him our top pick in the upcoming game.
Mahmudullah Riyad to be Bangladesh’s top batter
Mahmudullah Riyad has been the shining light in what has been a torrid campaign for Bangladesh batsmen thus far. In four games, Riyad has scored 41, 46, 111 and 20 and with 218 runs, Riyad is the leading run scorer for Bangladesh this term which makes him our top pick for the upcoming game.
Pakistan vs Bangladesh Top Team Bowlers
Shaheen Afridi to be Pakistan’s top bowler
Shaheen Afridi has been class apart for Pakistan and the only reason why they are still in contention to make the knockouts in the World Cup. Afridi has been the most consistent bowler for Pakistan and with 13 wickets, Afridi is the leading wicket taker for Pakistan this term which makes him our top pick for the upcoming game.
Shoriful Islam to be Bangladesh’s top bowler
With eight wickets, Shoriful Islam is the top wicket taker for Bangladesh in this tournament. Islam had a solid outing in the last game against Netherlands at Eden Gardens where he ended up with 2/51.Considering the fact the upcoming game would be played at the same venue we believe Islam would have a great game once again which makes him our top pick for the upcoming game.
