Pakistan will look to salvage their series and their World Test Championship (WTC) standing when they face Bangladesh in the PAK vs BAN 2nd Test 2026 at the Sylhet International Cricket Stadium on Saturday. Following a heavy 104-run defeat in the opening match in Dhaka, the visitors enter the series decider under immense pressure, trailing 1-0 and grappling with significant disciplinary sanctions.

In a major boost for the visitors, Pakistan head coach Sarfaraz Ahmed has confirmed that Babar Azam is fit and available for selection. The star batter missed the first Test due to a knee injury, and his absence was keenly felt as the Pakistani batting line-up collapsed in the final sessions at Mirpur.

Match Preview
The stakes for Pakistan extend beyond the series trophy. The team was recently penalised eight WTC points for a slow over-rate in the first Test, a sanction that saw them slide to eighth place in the championship standings.
Bangladesh, conversely, are on the verge of a historic achievement. A victory or a draw in Sylhet would secure their first-ever home Test series win against Pakistan. The Bangla Tigers currently sit in sixth place in the WTC table, buoyed by the five-wicket haul of pace sensation Nahid Rana and a captain’s century from Najmul Hossain Shanto in the previous outing.
