Bangladesh (262 & 185/4) secure a historic Test win by 6 wickets against Pakistan (274 & 172) in the 2nd Test match to clean sweep the series 2-0

[sweep_shot]

What is das even doing? What's the point of not taking a single only to take a single?

Managing his cramp and protecting tail.

Hassan Mahmud is on 1* off 23 balls.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Waste of a review

 

[DeadlyVenom]

Yes a great come back from them...

But what a mess Pakistan Cricket is in.
They can't prepare good wickets, have no one that can bowl at decent pace and not a single spinner...

T20 cricket seems to have destroyed our cricket... bowlers only half decent when batters are looking to attack, making them pretty ordinary for test matches... this is particularly so for spinners.

T20 has probably kept us relevant.

Lack of investment over a long period of time in FC cricket has been the reason for what we are seeing today.

T20 at least gives some players the chance to make money.

 

[Shafi]

Update:

Mohammad Ali is injured and he will not bowling anymore today.

That's always the case once pressure applied they fail like no tomorrow!!!

Only liton the unfit knows

 

[sweep_shot]

Waste of a review

Yeah. Poor review. That didn't look out.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Jo Root will score 300 in current form against this bowling.

PSL in particular...it has taken all the attention away from fixing our first class structure to hosting a circus once a year...aur khelo PSL!

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Guttural grunt before delivering the ball at 127 kph . Is Mir Hamza trying to bluff the batsman into thinking it's a quicker ball?

 

[Shafi]

Hopefully last match for useless Zimbabar and Shaheen.

 

[sweep_shot]

Hassan Mahmud's innings (1* off 24 balls) is reminding me of Geoff Allott's 0 off 77 balls. LOL.

Epic tuk-tuk.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

With thunderstorms from tonight seems like Bangladesh might stay back for a couple of extra days.

Sure, what you say is valid.
But any youngsters would want to play T20 over any other format, because that's where the money and glamour is (crowds etc)... this is killing the development of our youngsters...

To make things worse, even our T20 team is currently below average...

 

[Savak]

Rizwan and Agha Salman, this is how you bat with the tail. Watch and learn instead of being selfish

 

[adi_62941]

What a joke. Abrar avoiding to try catching. Haha

 

[Markhor]

Abrar bottling two return catch opportunities.

 

[sweep_shot]

Four from Litton.

He is on 96*.

 

[Nil Dhumrojal]

At last a 4 from das

 

[Deewana Mastana]

How comes Abrar hasn't been able to get any wickets ?

Have they dropped catches off him or he's just been ineffective?

 

[Nil Dhumrojal]

Hasan mahmud doing a great job for Bangladesh

 

[Shafi]

Rizwan and Agha Salman, this is how you bat with the tail. Watch and learn instead of being selfish

Is that the reason we are 0-1 in this series?

 

[Nil Dhumrojal]

How comes Abrar hasn't been able to get any wickets ?

Ineffective. No catch dropped today

 

[Hawkeye]

How comes Abrar hasn't been able to get any wickets ?

Pakistanis think players on the bench are always better than those in the playing eleven.

Same case with Abrar. There’s a reason why nobody rates him and he hasn’t been getting chances.

I don’t have any high hopes from him. You can’t keep true talent out of the team.

 

[sweep_shot]

How comes Abrar hasn't been able to get any wickets ?

He dropped one catch himself (off his own bowling). But, that was a tough chance.

Didn't see any other drop.

 

[Savak]

Mir Hamza and Khurram Shehzad badly need juice in the wicket to be effective. Without it, they have become very pedestrian.

 

[adi_62941]

Why our players become useless after touching little success. Our story from last 3-4 years. Same script is repeating everytime, they get some initial success and then same failures

 

[sweep_shot]

He dropped one catch himself (off his own bowling). But, that was a tough chance.

Didn't see any other drop.

Abrar's bowling is quite Anil Kumble-ish.

He is not a big turner of the ball. He doesn't flight it. He relies on variations.

 

[adi_62941]

Mir hamza bowling bolts but not exceeding 130kph

 

[sweep_shot]

BD - 210/8 (64 overs).

Trailing by 64 runs.

 

[BouncerGuy]

Das is 1 run away from a great century here.

 

[mominsaigol]

Pakistan can't even get tail enders out.

With the exception of Khurram everyone else is just waiting for bangaldesh to throw their wicket away

 

[Hawkeye]

Guttural grunt before delivering the ball at 127 kph . Is Mir Hamza trying to bluff the batsman into thinking it's a quicker ball?

What have we become.

A trundling factory sadly.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Pitch is too slow for him to make an impact. When he flights it becomes even slower. You need sharp turn from somewhere to sow doubts in the mind of batsmen.

 

[sweep_shot]

I think Bangladeshi jersey needs to be modified. They have the word "Robi" on 3 areas on the t-shirt. LOL.

Just have it in one area. It looks very odd currently.

 

[BouncerGuy]

Good shot for 4. 4th century for Litton

 

[sweep_shot]

Century for Litton.

Well played.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Beautifully crafted 100 by Litton. Matured innings.

 

[Mohammad Aizaz]

2nd hundred for Litton Das vs Pakistan under immense pressure

His first 114 at Chattogram in 2021 was when Bangladesh were 49-4
Today 103* at Pindi in 2024 when Bangladesh were 26-6

 

[Nil Dhumrojal]

Century for liton !
Congratulations
Long way to go.

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

one of the great hundreds by Litton kr das in BD history, considering the fall of wickets and the pressure situation

 

[sweep_shot]

BD are now trailing by 57 runs.

BD - 217/8.

 

[Savak]

Try something different like Saim Ayub or Salman Ali Agha. Abrar is useless

 

[RashelHassan]

Liton Das, take a bow!

 

[mominsaigol]

Sad day for rizzu supporters.

First test a former keeper outshines him and now this test another keeper outshines him.

And guess what Bangladesh wins. Fraud leader of the nexus

 

[sweep_shot]

Drinks break.

Hassan Mahmud is hanging in there. Good to see. He is generally a walking wicket.

Can these two stay there till the Stumps?

 

[Josh]

High quality hundred from Liton

 

[DeadlyVenom]

Good knock from Liton

 

[Savak]

Nauman Ali won Pakistan the last test match they played against Sri Lanka they played in 2023. Why was he not selected?

 

[m.shah]

Lack of proper spinner is hurting Pakistan. Abrar is clueless

 

[m.shah]

Nauman Ali won Pakistan the last test match they played against Sri Lanka they played in 2023. Why was he not selected?

He is comfortably better than Abrar

 

[mominsaigol]

Lack of proper spinner is hurting Pakistan. Abrar is clueless

He's bowling away from the body of Mahmud like why? You know mahmud will just leave it?

Why not bowl around the stumps?

 

[sweep_shot]

Lack of proper spinner is hurting Pakistan. Abrar is clueless

He needs to flight it once in a while. All of his deliveries are flat in nature. He relies on variations.

Reminds me of Anil Kumble.

 

[sweep_shot]

Litton is protecting tail well and Hassan Mahmud is showing good defense.

Classic Test match tail batting.

 

[kron]

Litton is better than any batsman from both sides.

 

[RashelHassan]

I thought that Liton would attack after tea. But he has taken a very different approach yet effective. Nevertheless deficit is only 56 now.

 

[sweep_shot]

Litton is better than any batsman from both sides.

If you are talking about techniques, I think Litton, Mushfiqur, and Abdullah Shafique have the best techniques.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

121 kph from Mir Hamza.

 

[m.shah]

Frustrating Pakistan

 

[Nil Dhumrojal]

Very good 25 run partnership between these two

 

[jnaveen1980]

That grunt... but bowls a bouncer at Marcus stoinis speed (124 kph)

 

[mominsaigol]

Bamgaldesh is trolling pakistan.

Pakistan is in no conditons to take any wickets besides khurram.

Those 2 wickets by mir Hamza weren't revolutionary, just given to him

 

[sweep_shot]

I thought that Liton would attack after tea. But he has taken a very different approach yet effective. Nevertheless deficit is only 56 now.

Don't think he could do that even if he wanted. His cramp seemed quite bad.

I think this was the right approach. These two have both added runs and wasted overs.

Remember that BD need a draw to secure a series win. So, eating up overs also helps.

 

[Bewal Express]

Nauman Ali won Pakistan the last test match they played against Sri Lanka they played in 2023. Why was he not selected?

Because he can't turn the ball. Let's not pretend that he and Sajid were any good.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Probably one of the best tons ever by a BD batter considering opposition, pitch and conditions and match context (26/6)

Well done, brother

 

[sweep_shot]

Four from Litton.

BD - 222/8.

Trailing by 52 runs.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

26-6 to 226-8

 

[Shafi]

Bangladesh is in the safe zone now!!! Unless miracle happens we can't save this test.

 

[sweep_shot]

Hassan Mahmud is on 2* off 31 balls.

Tuk-tuk overload.

 

[Shafi]

Because he can't turn the ball. Let's not pretend that he and Sajid were any good.

Exactly!!! Nauman and Sajid are even worse than Abrar.

 

[RashelHassan]

Don't think he could do that even if he wanted. His cramp seemed quite bad.

I think this was the right approach. These two have both added runs and wasted overs.

Remember that BD need a draw to secure a series win. So, eating up overs also helps.

Yes, completely agree with you. Hasan Mahmud is playing his parts beautifully. You'll see measured aggression from Liton now.

 

[Savak]

Because he can't turn the ball. Let's not pretend that he and Sajid were any good.

He's a better option than Abrar. Plus he's a handy batsman as well.

 

[Savak]

Nauman outbowled Abrar in the last test series against Sri Lanka

 

[Nikhil_cric]

What have we become.

A trundling factory sadly.

The ones with pace have no brains, fitness or skill ala

And the ones with skill have no pace, unfortunately

 

[sweep_shot]

Litton is on 111*.

BD - 224/8.

Trailing by 50 runs.

 

[AamchiMumbaikar]

Great century from Litton. 20/6 to 220/8

 

[AamchiMumbaikar]

Das might have saved the match and series for Desh here.

 

[followed]

Abrar is pure garbage. Why is he so overhyped. Nauman Ali would have been much better than this garbage.

 

[sweep_shot]

Das might have saved the match and series for Desh here.

Don't forget Mehidy. He also scored 80+.

Anyway, game is not over yet. Pakistan can still win.

 

[jnaveen1980]

If ABrar is going to bowl that trajectory he better bowls quicker. You cannot bowl at this speed. ultra SLower version of shahid afridi.

 

[sweep_shot]

Litton is running better now. Cramp improved maybe.
