Pakistan vs Bangladesh: Wet Outfield Postpones Test Start

Pakistan vs Bangladesh Test Match Delay

A wet outfield has delayed the toss in the first Test between Pakistan vs Bangladesh at Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium. Umpires were set to make a second inspection at 11am on Wednesday as there were still some wet patches on the outfield following early morning rain. Rawalpindi will also host the second Test of the two-match series from August 30. The Pakistan Cricket Board moved that match because of ongoing construction work at the National Bank Stadium ahead of next year's Champions Trophy.

Coaching Updates

Pakistan are being coached by former Australian fast bowler Jason Gillespie, who is keen to lead the team to victory against their rivals.
