Play stopped due to bad light, Bangladesh well placed for Victory

In Rawalpindi, with Bangladesh scoring 42 runs without loss in 7 overs, play was halted by the umpires due to insufficient light. The excitement of Bangladesh's opening pair was interrupted by the fading light. There are still approximately 46 overs left in the day's play.

To win the match, Bangladesh needs another 143 runs with all 10 wickets remaining. The opening partnership of Zakir Hasan and Sadman Islam is offering a promising start. Zakir Hasan batted aggressively, remaining unbeaten with 31 runs off 23 balls, while Sadman Islam scored 9 runs.

Pakistan's second innings was dismantled by the fiery pace of Hasan and Nahid, ending at just 172 runs. Hasan Mahmud took the highest number of wickets for Bangladesh with 5, and Nahid Rana claimed 4 crucial wickets. The bowlers have put Bangladesh on the brink of their first-ever Test series win against Pakistan. Apart from Rizwan and Salman, no Pakistani batter was able to truly challenge the Bangladeshi bowlers.
