The Tigers’ triumph over their arch-rivals in their own backyard is a testament to their resilience and determination.
Bangladesh completes the sweep
The final day of the second Test witnessed a dramatic collapse from the Pakistan batting lineup, as they were bundled out for ꦗa paltry 172 runs in their second innings. Bangladesh, resuming their innings at 40 for no loss, comfortably chased down the target of 185 runs to secure aꦐ victory by six wickets.

Litton Das’s Stellar Knock
Wicketkeeper-batter Litton Das played a pivotal role in Bangladesh’s success, scoring a crucial 138 runs in the first innings. His partnership with Mehidy Hasan Miraz, who contributed 78 runs, helped the Tigers p꧙ost a respectable total of 262 runs.
Pakistan’s batting woes
Despite a fighting half-century from Agha Salman in the second innings, Pakistan’s batting order failed to deliver. The hosts’ top-order batters struggled to adapt to the conditions, and their middle order collapsed under pressure.
Bangladesh’s bowling prowess
The Bangladesh bowlers, led by Taskin Ahmed and Hasan Mahmud, wreaked havoc on the Pakistan batting lineup. Their disciplined bowling 🍸and ability to extract movement from the pitch proved too much for the hosts to handle.

Bangladesh didn’t win by fluke or luck. They were better than Pakistan in each department. Bangladesh as a team had better quality than Pakistan. Better batsmen, better bowlers, better fielders. This has to be most embarrassing moment for…🅰
