Pakistan is gearing up to revive their struggling campaign when they face off against Bangladesh at the iconic Eden Gardens in Kolkata on Wednesday, October 31.

The team, led by Babar Azam, has been facing a string of four consecutive defeats, with their latest loss against South Africa at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai. Winning their remaining three games is vital for Pakistan if they hope to maintain an outside chance of reaching the semi-finals.

Bangladesh has also witnessed a turbulent campaign, with their recent defeat to the Netherlands, who comprehensively beat them by 87 runs at the same venue. 

Both teams are determined to bounce back from their recent setbacks, as many of their strategies have misfired in recent matches. Here's a look at how the teams are shaping up for the upcoming match.
