Pakistan vs Bangladesh Key Players

Mahmadullah

Mahmadullah could be ready for his announcement in the near future. He took fans back in time though with an incredible throw against New Zealand but was also out with a careless shot in the previous game.

Imam ul Haq

After sometime away from the squad Imam Ul Haq finally got a chance at a comeback. This could though be his final chance for him to settle into the eleven.
