On the day before a Test match, the common practice in Bangladesh is that the captain of the host team would attend the pre-match press conference.

Asif Mahmud Shojib Bhuyain, adviser to the ministry of youth and sports, hailed the players for bringing success at a difficult time

The triumphant Bangladesh cricket team will return home following their historic 2-0 Test series win against Pakistan tonight.

“Belief is very important. Every single player believed that we can come back,” Shanto said at the post-match press conference.

“If you want to win a Test match then you have to bat, bowl, and field well. You saw in the first Test, the catch Zakir [Hossain] took and the one I caught off Babar [Azam]…brought the momentum.” said Liton during the post-match presentation.

Zakia Bari Mamo is passionate about cricket and football, with a particular fondness for Messi. She makes it a point to watch nearly every cricket match that Bangladesh plays.

"We can't express feelings with words, we are really happy," said Bangladesh captain Najmul Hossain Shanto.

“By far, this is our best Test series victory and Test performance,” said an excited Bashar soon after Bangladesh recorded a historic first-ever series win over Pakistan with a six-wicket victory in the second Test in Rawalpindi today.

In a message to the fans in Bangla, Miraz said that he will donate the prize money he won as the player-of-the-series to a rickshaw-pullers' family who recently lost his life after sustaining injuries during the student-led people's movement in Bangladesh.

Chief Adviser Professor Muhammad Yunus said Bangladesh national cricket team would be accorded a reception once it returns home

Bangladesh beat Pakistan by six wickets in the second and final Test in Rawalpindi on Tuesday, winning the series 2-0 and clinching a historic maiden series win against Pakistan.

Bangladesh completed a historic 2-0 clean sweep over Pakistan with a six-wicket win in the second and final Test at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium today.

The fifth day of the second Test between Bangladesh and Pakistan commenced on time as the morning rain predicted by the weather forecast has so far stayed away in Rawalpindi today.

Bangladesh’s pace trio of Hasan Mahmud, Nahid Rana and Taskin Ahmed ran roughshod over Pakistan and etched their names in the annals of the country’s cricket by taking all 10 wickets in Pakistan’s second innings in the second Test in Rawalpindi today.

Bad light and then rain brought an early end to the proceedings of the fourth day as Bangladesh reached 42-0 in seven overs at stumps, needing 143 runs on the final day to win the second Test against Pakistan and complete a historic 2-0 series win at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium.

Liton Das paid credit to the contributions made by Miraz and Mahmud at the conclusion of play and said his innings was just behind his career-best hand of 141 against Sri Lanka in 2022.

Compared to his bowling, Miraz’s batting talents are often downplayed. But yesterday, with Bangladesh teetering on the brink on 26-6, the 26-year-old showed his class.

A day that had Bangladesh staring at ignominy in the morning ended with them in the ascendency, owing to the tremendous resolve of Liton Das and Mehedi Hasan Miraz as their historic stand fueled the tourists’ fightback on the third day of the second Test against Pakistan in Rawalpindi yesterday.

The 29-year-old became the first batter to have scored three centuries as a number 6 or 7 batter after coming in to bat with the team’s score below 50 runs, and in this regard, he must thank Mehedi Hasan Miraz and Hasan Mahmud.

Liton Das and Mehedi Hasan Miraz achieved a never before done feat in Test cricket today, becoming the only pair in history to form a partnership of over 150 runs for the seventh or lower wicket after the team had lost six wickets for less than 50 runs on the board.
