Preview:
The fixture between Pakistan and Bangladesh will be the penultimate fixture of the Super 12 Group 2 in the T20 World Cup. Both teams have an outside chance to hopefully qualify for the knockouts and hence would want to register a win at the Adelaide Oval. Pakistan defeated South Africa while Bangladesh were beaten by India in their respective previous matches.
Pitch Report:
The Adelaide Oval always has been a high-scoring ground in Australia, where both the pacers as well as the spinners have opportunities to dominate. Particularly under lights, the team batting first could be advantageous.
Team Analysis:
Pakistan
The Men in Green certainly have been the wildcard team in the tournament so far. They lost their opening two games but then took down mighty South Africa with a resounding comeback win. Their top two batters have failed to fire but their middle order has managed to keep the Men in Green in every game. Whereas their bowling attack, like always, has been one of the best in the tournament.

Bangladesh
The Bangla Tigers, throughout the tournament, have failed to punch above their weight. They have beaten teams like Netherlands and Zimbabwe but have been dominated by India and South Africa. Their bowlers have conceded a lot of runs against top teams. Similarly, their batters haven’t been able to score runs quickly and consistently. But the Tigers would hope to put together a powerful performance in their last game.

Match Prediction:

Pakistan are looking like the favourites to take the victory against Bangladesh as they have a more well-rounded team with star players in each department.
