Bangladesh Cricket TeamBangladesh is set to get the test of 2019 ICC Cricket World Cup fever for the first time when they take on Pakistan in the first official warm-up game on Sunday at the Sophia Gardens in Cardiff. The match starts on 3.30 PM (Bangladesh Standard Time).


Bangladesh will be looking forward to keep their winning momentum intact and get some good amount of confidence ahead of the showpiece event. It’s in fact the chance to fine tune the combination further and figure out what is imperative for team.
It will Bangladesh’s first match after lifting the trophy of the tri-series in Ireland, their first major trophy in a tournament involving three or more teams.
On the other hand, Pakistan will be eager to break their losing streak in the 50-over format as they would enter into the match with losing 10 matches in a row. To make the matter worse, they had also lost their first warm-up game to Afghanistan, creating a huge uproar in their country.
Pakistan began their World Cup preparation in the worst possible manner as they were humbled by England 4-0 largely due to their tooth-less bowling attack as the English batsmen dominated their bowlers throughout the whole series.
