Match Preview: The final match between host Pakistan and Bangladesh, who have been eliminated from the competition, will take place at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium. On Thursday, February 27, the two clubs will play one another. Pakistan has received criticism for their play this season and has lost the competition to arch-enemy India and New Zealand, both of whom are disappointing. Despite being the favorites and defending champions, the team captained by Muhammad Rizwan has not had many favorable opportunities with the bat or the ball. The same is true for the Bangla Tigers, who, despite potentially displaying flashes of genius in their two games, such as their comeback against India in the first inning and their early success against the New Zealand openers in their last meeting, were unable to overcome the opposition and finished second best on the entire day.

For three years, the Kerala Cricket Association (KCA) banned controversial former Indian cricketer S. Sreesanth from all state batting-related activities. The KCA said that his comments during a TV debate regarding Sanju Samson's exclusion from the Indian Champions Trophy selection, as well as his subsequent response to a KCA notification, were rude and unsuitable. At a general body meeting on April 30, the association made the decision. A few other people, including Samson's father, Samson Viswanath, had also received letters from the KCA for making similarly false statements. The KCA is currently considering its options about Samson's father's reaction. Though it is understood that his response was not as defiant as Sreesanth's, who seemed to blame the association for Samson's non-selection, the association is still unhappy with his attitude. Sreesanth shares ownership of the Kerala Cricket League team Kollam Aeries. The former India pacer, who received a life suspension by the BCCI until the Supreme Court of India cleared him of any role in the alleged 2013 IPL controversy, would not be allowed to participate in any cricket-related activities in the state for three years, according to KCA spokesman Vinod Kumar. However, he is still able to be a part of the KCA league team. In addition to being a member of the two World Cup-winning teams (2007 and 2011), the 42-year-old Sreesanth, who played for India in 27 Test matches, 53 ODIs, and 10 T20Is, made comments about Samson's lack of selection for the Champions Trophy on a Keralan local television channel that the association believed were incorrect. He received a show-cause letter, and the general body declared suspension based on his response. "His response was poor. In simple terms, he held us responsible for Sanju's eviction from the Indian team," Vinod remarked. "A few other people have also received notices from us. In actuality, we were also accused of not having Karun Nair play for Kerala. However, those
