Mirpur: Pakistan will play Bangladesh in the first one-day international match of the Cool & Cool three-match ODI series today (Thursday) at the Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium in Mirpur.
Bangladesh have only one win against the green shirts in their last 26 ODI encounters since 1986.
Bangladesh beat Pakistan by 82 runs in the group match of the ICC Cricket World Cup in Northampton, England in 1999.
Pakistan played their last full three-match ODI series in Bangladesh in 2001-2002 and made a clean sweep with a 3-0 victory over Bangladesh.
In the last encounter, Pakistan crushed Bangladesh by 139 runs in the Asia Cup last year in Dambulla, Sri Lanka.
Bangladesh earlier started their home series campaign against Pakistan with a humiliating 50-runs defeat in the only T20 match at the SBNS on Tuesday.
The day/night match between the two sides will start at 12:30 PST.
