<p>The Bangladesh Tour of Pakistan 2024 features a two-match Test series, with both fixtures scheduled at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium in northern Pakistan. The series kicked off yesterday, with Shan Masood's Pakistan and Najmul Hossain Shanto's Bangladesh facing each other, both fielding full-strength squads.</p>



<p>It was raining early in the morning at Rawalpindi. The outfield was wet at the scheduled time to start the match so the match officials delayed the toss. The coin was flipped at 2:00 PM and Shanto made the right call. </p>

<p>Pakistan were invited to bat first, and Bangladesh made an early impact. Hasan Mahmud struck first, dismissing Abdullah Shafique with just 3 runs on the board. Shortly after, Shoriful Islam removed Shan Masood with a controversial caught-behind decision.</p>



<p>Shoriful Islam continued his impressive spell by dismissing Babar Azam for a duck in his next over, leaving Pakistan reeling at 16 for 3. However, Saud Shakeel and Saim Ayub built a resilient partnership, steering Pakistan towards a recovery.</p>

<p>Saud Shakeel and Saim Ayub added 98 runs together before Ayub, having reached 56 individually, lost his focus and gave away his wicket just after the drinks break. Mohammad Rizwan then joined Shakeel, and the pair ensured there was no further damage during the extended half-hour of play.</p>



<p>At stumps, Pakistan had posted 158 runs for the loss of four wickets. However, with some green tinges still visible on the surface, batting on Day 2 could present significant challenges. Now, let's take a look at the PAK vs BAN Day 2 Rawalpindi Weather Forecast, Rain Prediction, and Pitch Report:</p>

<p>The weather in Rawalpindi today is ideal for cricket. The groundsmen have had ample time to prepare the outfield, ensuring smooth play throughout the day. According to Weather.com, Rawalpindi will experience a sunny and humid day on August 22.</p>



<p>There is virtually no chance of rain today, allowing uninterrupted play on Day 2 of the PAK vs BAN first Test. A gentle breeze, with speeds around 13 KMPH, will blow towards the southwest.</p>

<p>The pitch in Rawalpindi has a slight green tint, suggesting there will be swing on offer. Yesterday, the bowlers extracted ample movement from the surface, and a similar challenge is expected this morning. Pakistan's batters will likely face some tough questions from the Bangladeshi bowlers early on.</p>



<p>However, the pitch tends to flatten out with careful play during the first hour, providing opportunities for a more stable innings. Pakistan will undoubtedly have a strategy in place to build a prolonged innings today.</p>

Rawalpindi Weather Forecast; PAK vs BAN Day 2 Rain Prediction, Pitch Report

<p><strong>PAK vs BAN 2nd Test:</strong> It wasn't the best opening day for a test match as it was raining all day yesterday. The day's play was called off and now, it is just a FOUR day test match where toss will play the critical role. This post reads the Rawalpindi Weather Forecast for PAK vs BAN 2nd Test Day 2, Rain Prediction Today, Pitch Report, and More.</p>



<div class="wp-block-rank-math-toc-block" id="rank-math-toc"><h2><strong>Jump To:</strong></h2><nav><ul><li class=""><a href="#pak-vs-ban-2nd-test-day-2-rawalpindi-weather-forecast">PAK vs BAN 2nd Test Day 2: Rawalpindi Weather Forecast</a></li><li class=""><a href="#rawalpindi-cricket-stadium-pitch-report">Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium Pitch Report</a></li></ul></nav></div>



<p>Pakistan have been the upset home side for quite a long time now. They haven't won any home Test series in the last year and lately, they have lost to Bangladesh (first time in the history of Pakistan Cricket).</p>



<p>The 10-wicket defeat occurred on one of the most favorable batting tracks at home, following Pakistan's confident declaration in the first innings with a formidable total of nearly 450 runs. However, after conceding a 117-run lead, Pakistan's batting lineup faltered in the second innings, collapsing for just 146 runs.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2024/08/Bangladesh-vs-Pakistan.jpg" alt="PAK vs BAN: Bangladesh scripts history with a first-ever Test match win over Pakistan at Rawalpindi" class="wp-image-146256" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Bangladesh script history with maiden test win over Pakistan (Image: myKhel)</figcaption></figure>



<p>This loss not only exposed the vulnerabilities within Pakistan's batting order but also highlighted the strategic miscalculation of fielding an all-seam attack. Shakib Al Hasan and Mehidy Hasan exploited this tactical error effectively, taking seven wickets between them to orchestrate a comprehensive victory ? Bangladesh's first ever against Pakistan and on Pakistani soil.</p>



<p>Despite making history and following a successful strategy, Bangladesh must be cautious of not becoming overconfident in their pursuit of further success. This is especially important given that a wounded Pakistan is likely to go to great lengths to level the series and regain their footing.</p>

<p>The most disappointing news for cricket fans is the disruption of play. Rain was predicted for the opening day of the Test match, and it arrived as expected, with unrelenting intensity. The heavy and persistent downpour left the outfield at the Pindi Stadium waterlogged and unfit for any cricketing action.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2024/08/PAK-vs-BAN-day-2.png" alt="PAK vs BAN 2nd Test: Day 2 Rawalpindi Weather Forecast, Rain Prediction Today, Pitch Report and More" class="wp-image-146443" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">PAK vs BAN 2nd Test: Day 2 Rawalpindi Weather Forecast <a href="https://weather.com/en-IN/weather/hourbyhour/l/b121dd9288f1f558c1ce73dfe2278c664b8a859a5e4efb143e910a8e9a83061f">(weather.com)</a></figcaption></figure>



<p>But here is the Good News as it is going to be a sunny day! Some clouds might float overhead but no need to worry for them. The temperature is going to peak at 33?C in the afternoon and high humidity will test the players' physical health as well. </p>



<p>No rain forecast has been made by any weather channel and it is going to be a nice day of Cricket. We are going to have extra time in all the remaining days and a minimum of 98 overs will be bowled in those days. </p>

<p>It looked like a lush green surface a couple of days before. The grass might have been chopped off but still, Rawalpindi surfaces are known as good batting surfaces. Here again, it could be a good batting surface, but with all the rain around, there could be some moisture and some early help for the pacers.</p>
