The match, held at Rawalpindi c🅘ricket stadium, saw Bangladesh achieve a historic win over Pakistan, 💫marking their first Test victory against the hosts.
Nahid Rana’s superb delivery
One of the pivotal moments of the match took place in the 26th over of Pakistan’s second innings. With Pakistan’s top-order batter, Babar Azam, at the crease, young Bangladeshi pacer Nahid Rana delivered a crucial blow. Rana’s full delivery, clocking 146.4 km/h and angling just outside off-stump, drew Babar into an ill-fa𒁃ted drive. Unaware of the subtle inward nip, Babar ed🐓ged the ball, which then crashed into the stumps, ending his innings at 22 runs off 50 balls with three boundaries.
The dismissal was a significant turning point, exacerbated by a missed catch by Litton Das earlier ♈in the over that had cost Bangladesh 22 crucial runs.
