Bangladesh cricket team won the Rawalpindi Test against the Shan Masood led Pakistan team as batting lineup faltered in the second innings, with the team struggling to post a competitive score.

Apart from Mohammad Rizwan, who stood firm, the rest of the batting order crumbled like a "wall of sand," leaving Bangladesh within reach of victory.

Abdullah Shafiq managed 37 runs, while Babar Azam was dismissed for 22. Captain Shan Masood could only contribute 14 runs before being sent back to the pavilion. Saud Shakeel and Salman Agha were both dismissed without scoring, further deepening Pakistan's woes.

Player of the Match: Mushfiqur Rahim

Best Bowler of the Match: Mehidy Hasan Miraz

Outstanding Performance of the Match: Saud Shakeel

In the lower order, Saeem Ayub scored just 1 run, Shaheen Afridi 2, and Naseem Shah 3 before their quick departures. Pakistan's dismal performance has left them facing one of their lowest scores against Bangladesh in Test cricket, with Bangladesh now needing a modest number of runs to secure the win.

Additionally, it will be their first victory over Pakistan in Test cricket. This has been the lowest innings total against Bangladesh for Pakistan in Test cricket. The day belonged to the spinners because of their accuracy and controlled bowling.

Shakib claimed three wickets while Miraz claimed four.

Except Rizwan, none of the batters were able to genuinely challenge the Bangladeshi bowlers.

Commentators said when was the last instance where a team declared their first Innings and lost the test match? It occurred in a test match between England vs Australia, Birmingham held on 16th June 2023.

One of the commentators said if anybody says Pakistan defeated because of 1st innings declaration, then he would say they don't understand the game plan, Pakistan tried to take home advantage with pace bowling but pitch betrayed with them.
