Pakistan have been the upset home side for quite a long time now. They haven't won any home Test series in the last year and lately, they have lost to Bangladesh (first time in the history of Pakistan Cricket).
The 10-wicket defeat occurred on one of the most favorable batting tracks at home, following Pakistan's confident declaration in the first innings with a formidable total of nearly 450 runs. However, after conceding a 117-run lead, Pakistan's batting lineup faltered in the second innings, collapsing for just 146 runs.
This loss not only exposed the vulnerabilities within Pakistan's batting order but also highlighted the strategic miscalculation of fielding an all-seam attack. Shakib Al Hasan and Mehidy Hasan exploited this tactical error effectively, taking seven wickets between them to orchestrate a comprehensive victory ? Bangladesh's first ever against Pakistan and on Pakistani soil.
Despite making history and following a successful strategy, Bangladesh must be cautious of not becoming overconfident in their pursuit of further success. This is especially important given that a wounded Pakistan is likely to go to great lengths to level the series and regain their footing.
Let's take a look at the Rawalpindi Weather Forecast for PAK vs BAN 2nd Test Day 2, Rain Prediction Today, Pitch Report, and More:
PAK vs BAN 2nd Test Day 2: Rawalpindi Weather Forecast
The most disappointing news for cricket fans is the disruption of play. Rain was predicted for the opening day of the Test match, and it arrived as expected, with unrelenting intensity. The heavy and persistent downpour left the outfield at the Pindi Stadium waterlogged and unfit for any cricketing action.
But here is the Good News as it is going to be a sunny day! Some clouds might float overhead but no need to worry for them. The temperature is going to peak at 33?C in the afternoon and high humidity will test the players' physical health as well.
No rain forecast has been made by any weather channel and it is going to be a nice day of Cricket. We are going to have extra time in all the remaining days and a minimum of 98 overs will be bowled in those days.
Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium Pitch Report
It looked like a lush green surface a couple of days before. The grass might have been chopped off but still, Rawalpindi surfaces are known as good batting surfaces. Here again, it could be a good batting surface, but with all the rain around, there could be some moisture and some early help for the pacers.
