Mohammad Hasnain in for Shaheen Shah Afridi

PAK vs BAN Champions Trophy 2025 Predicted Playing 11 Today Match: Pakan have crashed and burned in the Champions Trophy, despite coming into the event as the defending champions and the hosts. Their top stars have flattered to deceive in the Champions Trophy, which is why they’re playing against Bangladesh in the final game of the 2025 Champions Trophy with nothing more than pride on the line.
Pakan might try and reason that they were hamstrung injuries to players like Saim Ayub (ankle injury) and Fakhar Zaman (who was injury on the second ball of the tournament). But big-names like Babar Azam, Saud Shakeel, and Mohammad Rizwan have not delivered with the bat. Meanwhile, the pace trio of Shaheen Shah Afridi, Haris Rauf, and Naseem Shah has also been inconsent.
