MATCH: Bangladesh vs Pakistan
DATE: 13 March ,Friday
TIME: 02:15 PM IST
VENUE: Shere Bangla National Cricket Stadium, Dhaka
TOURNAMENT: 2nd ODI 2026
Bangladesh would want to clinch the three-match ODI series at the Shere Bangla National Stadium in Dhaka by winning the second ODI against Pakistan.
Bangladesh (BAN) are set to face rivals Pakistan (PAK) in the second ODI of the three-match ODI series on Friday, March 13, in a game that will be played at the iconic Shere Bangla National Cricket Stadium in Dhaka.
The Bangla Tigers were absolutely breathtaking in the first ODI against the Shaheen Shah Afridi-led side, as they earned a commanding eight-wicket victory over the Men in Green. The hosts would want to carry the same momentum forward and clinch the series win.
The Men in Green, on the other hand, have to come back strong to stay alive in this series. They had a poor run at the 2026 T20 World Cup after failing to make it to the semis, and with a humiliating loss in the series opener, the pressure will be on them to bounce back.

The Shere Bangla National Stadium is known for being one of the favourite grounds for spinners. On the contrary, the pitch for the first game had some grass on it, and it had some help for the pacers early on. If bowled on a correct spot, the pitch has something in it for the bowlers. Whereas it will get batting-friendly as the game progresses.

BAN vs PAK Probable Best Performers
Probable Best Batter: Tanzid Hasan Tamim
The Bangladesh opener will be the batter to watch out for in this contest. He had a stellar outing with the bat in the first ODI at the same venue. Chasing a modest target of 115, the left-hander scored 67 off just 42 balls to anchor the run-chase where the Bangla Tigers won by a comfortable margin on Thursday.
