Bangladesh vs Pakistan Match Prediction – 2nd Test

The 2nd Test of Pakistan’s tour of Bangladesh 2026 will see Bangladesh (BAN) take on Pakistan (PAK) at Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium, Chattogram. The match is scheduled to begin on Monday, June 2, 2026, at 10:00 AM local time (4:00 AM GMT / 12:00 AM ET / 9:00 PM PT).

Bangladesh enters this Test with a competitive but inexperienced squad. Their batting lineup features Mushfiqur Rahim, Najmul Hossain Shanto, Liton Das, Mahmudullah, Shadman Islam, and Shoriful Islam, giving them stability in the top and middle order. Rahim and Das will be key players for setting up big totals, while Mahmudullah provides finishing experience in the lower middle order.

Bangladesh’s bowling attack has variety, with Mehedi Hasan Miraz, Shoriful Islam, Ebadot Hossain, Taijul Islam, and Nasum Ahmed providing pace, spin, and wicket-taking options. Mehedi Hasan and Shoriful can be crucial in both new-ball and middle-overs spells, while Taijul and Nasum can trouble batters on a turning track.

Pakistan comes into this match with a strong and balanced squad. Their batting lineup includes Babar Azam (C), Imam-ul-Haq, Abdullah Shafique, Saud Shakeel, Fakhar Zaman, and Saudullah Khan, offering top-order stability and experienced middle-order finishing. Babar Azam and Fakhar Zaman are expected to anchor Pakistan’s innings.

Pakistan’s bowling strength lies in both pace and spin. Shaheen Afridi, Hasan Ali, Naseem Shah, Abrar Ahmed, and Nauman Ali provide early breakthroughs, seam support, and spin options in the middle overs. Afridi and Naseem are likely to attack the top order, while Abrar Ahmed can control the middle overs if the pitch turns.

The Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium pitch generally supports spin in the latter stages of the match, with early assistance to pacers under humid conditions. Batters need to spend time at the crease before playing big shots, and first-innings totals of 280-320 are usually competitive.
