Both teams will be aiming to improve their positions in the WTC standings after inconsistent starts to the cycle. Pakistan are currently placed fifth with 12 points from two matches, while Bangladesh sit eighth with four points.
Bangladesh head into the series after a dominant 2-0 home Test series sweep against Ireland in November 2025. However, the Najmul Hossain Shanto-led side are still searching for their first win of the current WTC cycle after drawing one Test and losing another against Sri Lanka national cricket team.
Pakistan, meanwhile, drew their most recent Test series 1-1 against South Africa national cricket team and will be eager to bounce back after suffering a historic 2-0 series defeat against Bangladesh in 2024.
