As Pakistan’s senior cricket team wraps up an eventful 2025, the focus now shifts to the year ahead. The ‘Men in Green’ had a challenging year, struggling to win major trophies. The year saw mixed results, with the team facing defeats on foreign soil but performing well at home, particularly in limited-overs cricket.

Pakistan team's performance in 2025

After finishing at the bottom of the ICC World Test Championship 2023–25 table with only five wins from 14 matches, Pakistan’s team faced a tough start.

Defeats against South Africa and disappointing performances in the home tri-series against New Zealand and South Africa extended the team's streak of underwhelming results. 

The ICC Champions Trophy 2025 brought more frustration, with defeats to India and New Zealand and a rain-affected match against Bangladesh.

Pakistan also struggled in New Zealand, losing the T20I series 4-1 and the ODI series 3-0.

Home conditions provided relief, with Pakistan whitewashing Bangladesh 3-0 in T20Is, but the team was unable to maintain momentum, losing the return series 2-1. Against the West Indies, Pakistan won the T20I series 2-1 but lost the ODI series 2-1. 

Despite these ups and downs, Pakistan finished the year on a positive note by winning back-to-back T20 tri-series against the UAE, Afghanistan, and Zimbabwe, and by clinching an ODI series against Sri Lanka.
