Pakistan Vs Bangladesh 1st Test Rawalpindi 2024 — As It Happened


Electing to bowl first, Bangladesh bowlers stunned the home crowd by scalping Abdullah Shafique; Shan Masood; and Babar Azam inside 16 runs, as Pakistan feared a debacle against the visitors.


However, resilient knock from the likes of Saim Ayub; Saud Shakeel; Mohammad Rizwan guided Pakistan out of trouble, with the latter two notching up impressive tons.


Mohammad Rizwan missed out on a double ton, as Pakistan skipper — Shan Masood, decided to declare the innings for 448.


In reply, Bangladesh did not lose their temperament and resilience as effective partnerships followed in after dismissal of each wicket, and veteran Mushfiqur Rahim smashed an impressive 341-ball 191, which saw Bangaldesh register their highest score against Pakistan in Tests, and 3rd highest overall, as they finished their innings at 565.


With only few overs left in Day 4's play, and whole of Day 5, no one could have thought off the fact that Pakistan will get bowled out to Bangladesh side on a flat batting-friendly wicket of Rawalpindi.... INSIDE 56 OVERS.


As Virat Kohli said once, "For 60 overs, they should feel like hell out there", Bangladesh bowlers seem like they might have taken notes of his iconic statement, as Pakistan batters faltered in a bizarre manner, and such was the state of the match on Day 5, that all Pakistan fans could do, was just look away, as they were bowled out for merely 146 runs.


Shakib Al Hasan, amidst 'lost temper' and outside controversies, managed to show his world class ability by scalping 3 wickets, and in the process, complemented Mehidy Hasan Miraz who took 4 wickets, as the spin duo combined for 7 wickets inside 29 overs to dismantle batting order of Pakistan.


Zakir Hasan and Shadnam Islam finished things off in style, as they scored 30 runs inside 6.3 overs to deliver a 10-wicket win. Bangladesh Cricket and its fans will never forget this historical day, as The Bangla Tigers indeed.... pulled off A MIRACLE IN RAWALPINDI..!!
