The Champions Trophy 2025 will kick off on February 19 at the National Stadium in Karachi, with the host nation, Pakistan, facing off against New Zealand. This venue will host three matches during the tournament. Meanwhile, fantasy players are also eagerly awaiting the tournament and, ahead of the Pakistan vs New Zealand match, they will be keen to learn about the conditions at the Karachi stadium, such as pitch reports and ODI records.

In this article, you will find key stats and previous records of the National Stadium in Karachi. The stadium hosted its first-ever ODI in 1980, and the most recent ODI was played just four days ago between New Zealand and Pakistan, which was the final of the tri-series.

Karachi Cricket Stadium ODI Records

The Karachi stadium has hosted 78 ODI matches in history. No team has ever scored 400+ runs here. The highest score ever recorded at the venue is 374, which was made by India against Hong Kong in Asia Cup 2008.

Matches Played 78
Won Batting First 36
Won Batting Second 39
Highest Score Batting First India: 374-4 (50) vs Hong Kong, 2008
Lowest Score Batting First Zimbabwe: 143-10 (38) vs Pakistan, 1993
Biggest Total Chased Pakistan Chased 352 vs South Africa, 2025
Lowest Score Defeded West Indies defended 170 vs Pakistan, 1991
Average 1st Inns Total 239
Average 2nd Inns Total 205
Best Figures For A Spinner Ajantha Mendis: 6/13 vs India, 2008
Best Figures For A Pacer Shoaib Akhtar: 6/16 vs New Zealand, 2002
Highest Score For a Batter Vivian Richards: 181(125) vs Sri Lanka, 1987

National Stadium Karachi Pitch Report

Karachi’s pitch is of a batting-friendly nature. Recently, Pakistan chased down a score of 352 runs against South Africa here. The pitch offers good bounce, making it easier for batsmen to play shots.

However, in the initial overs, pacers might find some movement, and like most typical Asian pitches, spinners are expected to play an important role. The team winning the toss would likely opt to bat and aim for a target of 280+, as defending a total below that could be challenging.
