Champions Trophy 2025: Pakistan-Bangladesh abandoned in Rawalpindi

Pakistan’s game against Bangladesh in the Champions Trophy was abandoned without a ball being bowled because of rain in Rawalpindi, Pakistan.

The umpires called the match off at 10:30 GMT, 90 minutes after the scheduled start time.

It is the second match in Rawalpindi to fall victim to the weather following the abandonment of Australia’s meeting with South Africa on Tuesday.

Both Pakistan and Bangladesh had already been eliminated from the tournament having lost their opening two matches.

Hosts Pakistan, the reigning champions, lost to New Zealand by 60 runs and India by six wickets and finish bottom of Group A with one point.

Bangladesh, meanwhile, will finish third following a six-wicket defeat against India and a five-wicket defeat to New Zealand.
