(Last 10 match)

The surface at Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium traditionally offers excellent assistance for batters, especially under clear skies. The ball comes nicely onto the bat, allowing for fluent stroke play and high-scoring matches. However, early in the innings, fast bowlers can find movement with the new ball, making the opening overs crucial. Spinners may get some grip later in the game as the pitch slows down, particularly in day-night fixtures. The fast outfield ensures that timing is well rewarded, and teams often target totals around 280–300 in ODIs or 160–180 in T20s. Winning the toss and batting first can be advantageous to capitalize on the fresh pitch conditions.
