Pakistan vs Bangladesh Live Score: Early success for Bangladesh

The new-ball pairing of Shoriful Islam (2-30) and Mahmud (2-33) jolted Pakistan after a delayed start of 230 minutes due to a wet outfield after overnight rain. Shoriful removed the home team's skipper Shan Masood for six and then star batter Babar Azam for a two-ball duck before Pakistan launched their recovery on a greenish pitch.

Pakistan vs Bangladesh Live Score: Brilliant fifties!

PAK vs BAN Live Score: Ayub and Shakeel rescue Pakistan

Left-handers Saud Shakeel and Saim Ayub hit fighting half-centuries to help Pakistan recover to 158/4 on a rain-hit opening day of the first Test against Bangladesh in Rawalpindi on Wednesday.

Hello and welcome to the action of Day 2 between Pakistan and Bangladesh. An intriguing Day 1 saw the first session blow out due to wet outfield but Bangladesh pacers cash in to a vibrant pitch which supported them really well in the second session however Pakistan came back strongly from a precarious  position of 16/3 to building a 98 run stand between Ayub and Shakeel. Both scored a fine fifty with Shakeel still out there unbeaten on 57 along with Rizwan. Bangladesh will be gutted as they allowed such a stand to build but will hope to start Day 2 with a couple of quick wickets in first session. Stay tuned for more updates.

STUMPS! The light has begun to fade away and the umpires call it stumps. An excellent couple of sessions for Pakistan. From 16/3, they have bailed themselves out massively and all thanks to Shakeel and Ayub they end Day 1 on a high. Earlier, we lost a full session due to wet outfield. The ground staff worked tremendously to get the ground ready and despite losing a session, we got a lot of good stuff to watch. Bangladesh used the new ball brilliantly as they got three wickets inside the first 10 overs. Shakeel and Ayub then negotiated the swing and just hung around as long as possible. Once the ball got old they scored runs briskly. Ayub scored a fine fifty before he fell. Shakeel too edged the ball a couple of times but got lucky. Rizwan and Shakeel are now batting for Pakistan and with their long tail, we feel they can build on Day 1. Join us for action on Day 2  Till then, cheers!
