Match Details
Match: Pakistan vs Bangladesh (T20I)
Date & Time: 25 Sep, 08:00 PM IST
Venue: Dubai International Cricket Stadium
Tournament: International T20I
Playing XIs: Not announced yet
Quick Preview
Pakistan arrive with a WLWLW rhythm—high ceiling with the ball (Shaheen, Rauf) and enough all-round depth (Nawaz, Faheem). Bangladesh are WWLWL—their pace pair Taskin + Mustafizur and the control of Nasum/Mehidy keep them in every game.
At Dubai, the deck is balanced with a slight lean to pacers and chasing historically stronger—which suits BAN’s recent chasing results.
Win Probability (pre-toss)
Team | Chance |
|---|---|
Pakistan | 60% |
Bangladesh | 40% |
Why: Recent Pakistan bowling spikes (Shaheen/Rauf), superior venue record for several PAK players, and broader all-round options. Toss can narrow this gap (Dubai favors chasing).

sPowerplay & Death Overs Impact
Powerplay (0–6)
PAK: Shaheen Afridi (new-ball swing, early breakthroughs), Abrar Ahmed as surprise if used inside PP on tacky surfaces.
BAN: Taskin Ahmed + Shoriful Islam—hit-the-deck and angle across RHBs.
Death (16–20)
PAK: Haris Rauf (yorker/pace), Shaheen if two-over back end when defending.
BAN: Mustafizur Rahman (cutters at Dubai grip), Taskin as enforcer.
Fantasy angle: Death specialists carry higher five-fer and economy bonus variance—good for C/VC in bowling-friendly chases.
MVP & Differential Picks
MVP (Safe-Ceiling)
Shaheen Afridi (PAK, BOW): PP + possible 18th/20th over = dual-phase wickets.
Taskin Ahmed (BAN, BOW): Form + PP/Death usage; consistent 60–90 FP band.
Mohammad Nawaz (PAK, AR): Role elasticity—finisher + 2–3 overs; venue rewards skiddy SLA.
Differentials (Lower pick %, upside)
Haris Rauf (PAK, BOW): Death spike games (90–150 FP upside).
Nasum Ahmed (BAN, BOW): If PAK stack LHBs, risk—but on used Dubai strips he’s gold.
Saim Farhan (PAK, BAT): Form touch; benefits if chasing with field spread.
Suggested Dream11 Combination (Pre-toss)
(Balance for Dubai; adjust 1–2 players at toss based on bat/field first.)
WK (2): Mohammad Haris (PAK), Litton Das (BAN)
BAT (3): Saim Farhan (PAK), Fakhar Zaman (PAK), Towhid Hridoy (BAN)
AR (2): Mohammad Nawaz (PAK), Mehidy Hasan (BAN)
BOW (4): Shaheen Afridi (PAK), Haris Rauf (PAK), Taskin Ahmed (BAN), Mustafizur Rahman (BAN)
Captain: Shaheen Afridi
Vice-Captain: Mohammad Nawaz
Differential C/VC (GPP): Taskin Ahmed / Haris Rauf
Bench pivots: Nasum Ahmed (for Mehidy on used pitch), Abrar Ahmed (for a batter if it’s tacky), Shoriful Islam (for Litton if you want 4 pacers).
Final Fantasy Tips & Toss Adjustments
If Chasing:
Lean 4 pacers (include both Taskin + Mustafizur and Shaheen/Rauf).
Prefer anchor + enabler bat combo (Hridoy + Saim/Fakhar).
C/VC: Death pacer (Rauf/Taskin) or Shaheen.
If Batting First:
Keep Nawaz locked (batting boost + 3 overs).
Consider Nasum/Abrar if surface looks used/dry.
Prioritize top-order bat who plays PP well (Saim Farhan).
Risk Management:
Bangladesh batters are volatile—limit to 1–2 top-order (Litton/Hridoy).
Don’t stack too much spin unless the pitch report screams dry/used.
Preserve one swap to react to last-minute XI (e.g., if Pakistan rest a pacer).
