Sports Desk, June 01, 2025: Trailing 2-0 in the three-match T20I series on Pakistani soil, Bangladesh is set to take the field tonight at Gaddafi Stadium for the third and final match. Led by Tamim Iqbal and Liton Das, the Tigers have one clear goal—avoiding a whitewash and salvaging some pride.
The first two matches exposed Bangladesh’s struggles with both bat and ball. A collapsing batting lineup and lackluster bowling have left the team outplayed by Pakistan’s aggressive approach. However, the team is desperate to turn things around, and changes to the playing XI are likely for this crucial game.
On the other hand, Pakistan, in scintillating form, is eyeing a series whitewash to boost their confidence ahead of future challenges. Under captain Salman Agha’s leadership, the hosts have dominated from the outset, with pacers Hasan Ali and spinner Abrar Ahmed proving particularly challenging for Bangladesh’s batters.
For Bangladesh, this match is not just about avoiding a clean sweep but also about regaining momentum before their upcoming series against Sri Lanka. A loss could dent not only their record but also their morale.
The match begins at 9:00 PM Bangladesh time and will be broadcast live on T Sports. Will Bangladesh salvage their honor, or will Pakistan complete their dominance? The answer awaits in a few hours.
