Pakistan's Champions Trophy Homecoming Ends in Rain-Soaked Disappointment

Pakistan's first ICC Champions Trophy as hosts ended in disappointment, with no wins to show after their final Group A match against Bangladesh was abandoned due to heavy rain in Rawalpindi. The defending champions finished last in their group, even below Bangladesh on Net Run Rate, marking a forgettable tournament.

Key Highlights:

  • Pakistan suffered heavy defeats against New Zealand and India.
  • Batting struggles were evident, with only 22 runs in the PowerPlay against New Zealand and a subpar 241 against India.
  • The match against Bangladesh, seen as a redemption opportunity, was called off early due to persistent rain.

The tournament marked a challenging start to Pakistan's hosting duties, with weather playing a significant role in the outcomes.
