CT 2025- Pakistan vs Bangladesh match 9 abandoned due to rain

The ICC Champions Trophy 2025 Group A match between Pakistan and Bangladesh, set for February 27 at Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium, was called off without a single ball being bowled due to continuous rain. Both teams, having already been eliminated from the tournament, shared one point each as a result. This washout marked the end of Pakistan’s home campaign without a single victory, a major letdown for the defending champions. Captain Mohammad Rizwan acknowledged the high expectations surrounding the team and expressed optimism that they would learn from their mistakes before their upcoming tour to New Zealand. Meanwhile, Bangladesh’s captain, Najmul Hossain Shanto, emphasized the strong performances of their pace bowlers despite the team’s overall struggles. In Group A, India and New Zealand have confirmed their places in the semi-finals and will soon face off in Dubai.
