Published: 03:47 3 September 2024
On the 5th day there was an apprehension of rain throughout the night. However, Pakistan's legendary cricketer Ramiz Raja said at midnight that the game will be played on the field. According to Pakistan Meteorological Department, he said this on his YouTube channel. Bangladesh also dreamed of winning the first series against Pakistan. Finally that dream came true in the second session. Bangladesh got a 6-wicket victory in the second Test of the series with the combined efforts of the batsmen.
When the Test with Pakistan comes up, the memory of Bangladesh's loss in the Multan Test comes to mind. After a long time, the first test of Rawalpindi has covered the wound of that loss. The 10-wicket win against Pakistan gave Bangladesh the taste of defeating Pakistan for the first time in Tests. This time an outstanding victory came in the second test as well. Despite losing two wickets at the beginning of the day, Nazmul Hossain Shanto, Muminul Haque and Mushfiqur Rahim took the team to the landmark of 185 runs.
Victory was a matter of time and patience after a poor performance by the pacers on the fourth day. That moment came in the second session of the 5th day. Tiger batsmen on the last day Bangladesh thrashed Pakistan for the first time. Shakib Al Hasan ensured Bangladesh's victory by hitting four off Abrar Ahmed. Pakistan also suffered such embarrassment at home only for the second time in their history.
Bangladesh started the day with a target of 143 runs. From the opening pair of 42 runs, 14 more runs were added on this day. Zakir scored 58 runs for the team and another opener Sadman returned for 70 runs. The two openers scored runs in 10 overs and crossed the 50 mark. After that, however, there is a problem. Zakir returned with a personal 40 run bowled by Mir Hamzar. Another opener Sadman could not use his life. Shaan Masood caught while playing a soft shot at mid-off. Khurram gets his first wicket.
Captain Nazmul Shanto and Muminul then played a perfect Test innings. The former and current captain of Bangladesh cricket found themselves right in the end even though it was a bit difficult in the beginning due to the wet outfield. The two added 57 runs after playing 20 overs. The match is also far out of Pakistan's reach by that time.
Shant could not increase his innings after lunch. The Bangladesh captain caught Salman Aghar's ball at short leg. Scored 38 runs. Bangladesh still need 58 runs to win the second Test.
Bangladesh did not have to return from there. Two experienced batsmen took Bangladesh closer to victory. Muminul returned but Shakib Al Hasan came to win. Bangladesh once again got the taste of winning a Test series outside the country. Before this, the memory of winning the series abroad was against the West Indies in 2009 and Zimbabwe in 2021. Now the name of Pakistan is added to it.
Yesterday is basically the foundation of victory. Hasan Mahmood picked up 2 wickets in the late afternoon of the third day. Despite having a lead of 21 runs, Pakistan was on the backfoot. On the 4th day, the pacers of Bangladesh were on fire. Pakistan's top and middle order helpless in front of Nahid Rana's pace. He gave a career best bowling spell.
Hasan Mahmud himself accompanied him. Two important batsmen Mohammad Rizwan and Salman Agha are back. When Pakistan's innings ended at 172 runs, Bangladesh's target stood at 185 runs.
Earlier, Liton Kumar Das and Mehdi Hasan Miraj's world record pair of 165 runs in the first innings also gave the Tigers a boost of confidence. After losing 6 wickets before 50 in Test cricket, the two Tiger batsmen put on a world record 165-run partnership for the 7th wicket. Lytton got his fourth career century. In response to Pakistan's 274 in the first innings, Bangladesh went up to 262.
Despite being behind by 12 runs, Bangladesh did not have much problem in coming back in the match. The Bangladesh flag was flying in the gallery from the start of the series. In the end, the red-green flag remained high at the end of the series.
