Bangladesh Create History With Test Series Win Over Pakistan, Whitewash Shan Masood-Led Team 2-0

Bangladesh cricket team have rewritten history inside of the two-match Test series against Pakistan in Rawalpindi. Their six-wicket win over the hosts in Rawalpindi inside of the 2nd Test on Tuesday (September three) ensured that it'd secure their first-ever Test series win over Pakistan.

The visitors resumed at 42 for no loss, requiring 143 more runs to win on the fifth and final day. Najmul Hossain Shanto’s side batted sensibly to overtake the modest target set by Shan Masood-led Pakistan team.

Opener Zakir Hasan continued to bat aggressively, smashing 40 off 39 balls with 2 sixes and three fours. But after Hasan’s dismissal by Mir Hamza, the rest of the Bangladeshi batters made up our minds to forego any risk. Skipper Shanto scored 38 (82b, 5×four) while Mominul Haque scored 34 (71b, four×four) to chip away on the target.
