Pakistan Team News & Playing 11
PAK Team News
Pakistan has rested out-of-form Azam Khan in the last match against India and roped in all-rounder Imad Wasim and we are backing the same playing 11 for them in this match.
PAK Key Players
- Babar Azam – The Pakistani skipper started off carefully in the last match but fell prey to Jasprit Bumrah at 13. He might learn from his previous innings and play better in this match. Babar has scored 57 runs so far in 2 matches.
- Mohammad Rizwan – Rizwan was standing alone when all the other batters fell like a house of cards in the last match against India. He scored valuable 31 runs off 44 deliveries but got out before completing the job. He will gain some confidence from his knock and score more in the next match.
- Naseem Shah – Naseem Shah looked sharp with the ball in the last match against India. He finished off with 3/21 in 4 overs and removed the dangerous Virat Kohli at the top. We back him to pick more wickets with this momentum.
- Haris Rauf – Haris Rauf also looked in good form in this T20 World Cup. He has taken 4 wickets in 2 matches at a strike rate of 10.5 which includes 3 wickets he took against India. In the last match he removed Suryakumar Yadav and Hardik Pandya.
PAK Team Form
Pakistan lost to India by 6 runs even before the wounds of the USA defeat were healed. They look out of confidence now and are almost on the verge of elimination if they lose another game.
Pakistan Predicted Playing 11
Mohammad Rizwan (wk), Babar Azam (c), Usman Khan, Fakhar Zaman, Shadab Khan, Iftikhar Ahmed, Imad Wasim, Shaheen Afridi, Haris Rauf, Naseem Shah, Mohammad Amir

Pakistan vs Canada Betting Odds
Pakistan has been in international cricket for a long time and is counted as one of the most successful teams while Canada is relatively new on the international circuit and they are playing their first ever T20 World Cup. Such factors impact the odds which is why the bookmakers are backing Pakistan at 1.12 to win this match.
Who will win the Pakistan vs Canada Match?
PAK was among the top 4 teams in the last two T20 World Cups but this year they are having a disappointing run so far with losses against the USA and their arch-rivals India. Given their standards, Pakistan is not an easy team to defeat and in the last match they almost had it in their hands but lost by just 6 runs. Pakistan will be all prepared for this and we are backing them to register their first win of this edition against Canada as the latter will face difficulties facing PAK’s brilliant bowling attack on this surface.
🏆 Pakistan vs Canada Prediction
Pakistan and Canada last faced each other in T20Is in 2008 when Pakistan won by 35 runs and the match took place in Canada. As both the teams prepare themselves for the 2nd head to head match, we back Pakistan to win this match and register 2nd win against Canada. Canadian batters are having a decent outing so far but they will face difficulties while facing the lethal bowling line-up of Pakistan. They bowled out India for just 119 and credit for that goes to the fine form of PAK bowlers so we back them to destroy the Canadian batting line up as well.
