In the ICC ODI World Cup 2023, Pakistan (PAK) and Bangladesh (BAN) will square off in a pivotal match. Both sides are itching for a victory because they haven’t been winning the tournament well. The game is expected to be an intriguing affair and is set to take place on Tuesday, October 31, at Kolkata’s famous Eden Gardens Stadium.
Babar Azam, the captain of Pakistan, has overseen a difficult campaign as his team has only won two of their six games. After winning their opening two games against the Netherlands and Sri Lanka, they lost their next four games against South Africa, Afghanistan, Australia, and India.
Bangladesh, led by Shakib Al Hasan, has also experienced a tumultuous World Cup 2023 campaign. They were able to defeat Afghanistan only once, but they were unable to defeat England, New Zealand, India, South Africa, or the Netherlands.
For both clubs, who are looking to snap their losing streaks and turn things around, this game is crucial.
Clear skies are anticipated for the ODI World Cup 2023 match between Pakistan and Bangladesh.
On the day of the match, Kolkata is expected to have bright skies and pleasant temperatures. Kolkata is predicted to have a daytime high of 32°C on Tuesday, October 31, and an evening low of 22°C. Rain is not expected to delay the PAK versus BAN encounter, as the skies are expected to be clear all day and night, with a low possibility of 5% during the day and 4% at night. During the day, humidity will be at 55%, and at night, it will rise to 70%.
Report about Eden Garden Stadium’s pitch:
Kolkata’s Eden Gardens Stadium is well-known for holding high-scoring games. At this stadium, the average first innings total in One Day Internationals (ODIs) is 241, and the average second innings total is often 203. When India played Sri Lanka, they recorded the highest total ever at this stadium, 404/5.
But the Netherlands and Bangladesh’s most recent game played here ended in a low-scoring battle. Batting should get simpler as the game goes on, but at first, hitters should take some time to get used to the situation before going all out.
