Match Details
When: Thursday, February 27 at 2:00 PM Local Time
Where: Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium
What to expect: The Australia vs South Africa match at this venue was abandoned without a toss due to persistent rain on Tuesday. With a similar forecast for Thursday, Pakistan and Bangladesh might see their disappointing campaigns end with a soggy farewell.
Team news:
Pakistan: Kamran Ghulam, Faheem Ashraf, Mohammad Hasnain and Usman Khan have not got a game yet in this Champions Trophy. Pakistan might look at including a few of them or all of them, with nothing riding on this match.
Probable XI: Imam-ul-Haq, Babar Azam, Usman Khan, Mohammad Rizwan (c & wk), Salman Agha, Faheem Ashraf, Kamran Ghulam, Mohammad Hasnain, Naseem Shah, Haris Rauf, Abrar Ahmed
Bangladesh: This is likely to be the final ODI in an ICC event for two Bangladesh legends - Mushfiqur Rahim and Mahmudullah - with the team likely to transition to the younger players in the near future, building up to the next one-day ICC event. Bangladesh are likely to stick to the same eleven that took the field against New Zealand.
Probable XI: Tanzid Hasan, Najmul Hossain Shanto (c), Mehidy Hasan Miraz, Towhid Hridoy, Mushfiqur Rahim (wk), Mahmudullah, Jaker Ali, Rishad Hossain, Taskin Ahmed, Nahid Rana, Mustafizur Rahman

MATCH ABANDONED DUE TO RAIN IN RAWALPINDI
Heavy rains have washed out the final group stage match, bringing an end to the campaigns of both teams in the Champions Trophy 2025. Puddles all around the ground, and the crowds have taken shelter under umbrellas.
It was a dead rubber, but the gloomy, rain-filled evening serves as a fitting end to their disappointing journeys in the tournament.
