(Last 10 match)

The Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium is known for producing balanced pitches that offer something for both batters and bowlers. In the early overs, fast bowlers are likely to get swing and movement, making stroke play challenging. As the game progresses, the pitch tends to flatten out, offering good batting conditions, especially under lights. Spinners might come into play as the game progresses, particularly in the second innings when the pitch slows down. The average first-innings score in ODIs at this venue hovers around 270-290, suggesting that teams winning the toss might opt to bat first and set a competitive total. However, with due factor coming in, chasing can also be a viable option if batters apply themselves well. A thrilling contest is on the cards, and the team that adapts better to the conditions will have the upper hand.
