Here is every Test at the ground in order, with the result from Pakistan's side. Pakistan's wins came against Zimbabwe, New Zealand, the West Indies, Bangladesh, South Africa and England. Their defeats came against Australia, Sri Lanka, India, England, Bangladesh twice and South Africa.

There was a 15-year gap with no Tests, from April 2004 to December 2019, when international teams did not tour Pakistan. Since Tests came back in 2019, Pindi has hosted 9, and Pakistan have won 3, lost 4 and drawn 2.

England's 657 is the highest total at the ground

Sri Lanka have one win and one draw in Rawalpindi

Sri Lanka have played two Tests at the ground. They won by 2 wickets in February 2000, chasing in the fourth innings. In December 2019 the Test was drawn after rain cut most of the play. That 2019 match was the first Test in Pakistan for ten years.

The 2026 Test starts on Monday 9 November at 9:30 am PKT. Our wider Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Test head to head has the full record between the teams, and ticket prices are on our page for 1st Test tickets in Rawalpindi.

What the Pindi record says before the 1st Test

The numbers point to a ground where Tests usually end in a result. Here is what stands out:

1. 13 of 17 Tests produced a result, so a draw is the least likely outcome.
2. Pakistan lost both Tests to Bangladesh here in 2024, their worst run at the ground.
3. Pakistan's last win here was against England, by 9 wickets in October 2024.
4. Three of the five highest totals came in Tests since 2019.
5. The pitch and weather in November can change all of this, so read the toss and team news on the morning.
