BAN vs PAK Dream11 Prediction: Welcome to the First T20I between Bangladesh and Pakistan. Both sides had the most contrasting campaigns in the T20 World Cup. Pakistan cruised through to the semi-finals with 5 wins in group stages but that loss in the semis must still be hurting them. On the other hand, Bangladesh played really poorly and lost all their 5 matches in WC and this has brought about a change to their T20 squad for this series with many youngsters getting a chance while the senior pros like Rahim have been left out. Bangladesh will be looking at the next world cup and look to build a team that can compete away from home. However coming to this series their most recent home record is quite impressive, with historic bilateral series wins against eventual World Cup finalists Australia and New Zealand. This is a challenge that this Pakistan team will cherish.
