In a disappointing conclusion to their ICC Champions Trophy campaigns, Pakistan and Bangladesh faced a washout in Rawalpindi on February 27, 2025, with no play possible due to weather conditions. This marks the second consecutive match at this venue to be abandoned without a ball bowled.
Both teams walk away from the tournament with one point each, leaving them with mixed feelings. While they may have hoped for a chance to secure a consolation win, the washout also ensures they avoid the risk of another defeat.
The outcome leaves both Pakistan and Bangladesh reflecting on their performances in the tournament, with Bangladesh edging out Pakistan on net run rate, finishing at -0.443 compared to Pakistan’s -1.087.
With only one match left in Group A, India and New Zealand will battle it out in Dubai for the top spot, as both teams have already secured their semi-final berths.
