NEW DELHI: Mehidy Hasan Miraz’s five-wicket haul helped Bangladesh bowl out Pakistan for 274 on the second day of their rain-affected second Test in Rawalpindi on Saturday.
Half-centuries from Shan Masood, Saim Ayub, and Salman Agha kept Pakistan’s innings together, but Bangladesh’s bowlers, particularly Miraz (5/61) and Taskin Ahmed (3/57), managed to control the run-rate and take timely wickets.
Bangladesh ended the day at 10 for no loss, with Shadman Islam on six and Zakir Hasan yet to score.
Bangladesh is aiming to secure a 2-0 series victory after their win in the first game.
After the first day was washed out due to incessant rain and a wet outfield, Taskin Ahmed struck early, bowling Abdullah Shafique with a swinging delivery in the first over of the day. Pakistan managed to recover to 99-1 by lunch, with Masood completing his 10th half-century, but he was soon dismissed lbw by Miraz for 57.
The Bangladesh bowlers grew in confidence as the day wore on and could have had more wickets but for some sloppy catching.
Ayub, who scored 58, was stumped after missing a flighted delivery from Miraz. Saud Shakeel, who was dropped at slip on one, chopped a delivery from Taskin onto his stumps, ending his stay at the crease.
As runs slowed down, Bangladesh removed the out-of-form Babar Azam for 31 before tea and Mohammad Rizwan for 29 soon after. This left Pakistan in trouble at 211 for 6.
Khurram Shahzad departed attempting a big shot and Mohammad Ali edged to slip as Miraz claimed his third and fourth victims late in the day.
Ahmed later dismissed Salman Agha, who had scored 54, increasing Pakistan’s troubles further.
Miraz then wrapped up Pakistan’s innings by having Abrar Ahmed stumped, capping off a fine bowling display.
The Bangladesh team, having won the toss and opted to field, saw their bowlers consistently taking key wickets and keeping the opposition’s run-rate under control.
