Bangladesh's opening batters did not perform well in this Test. I expected Tanzid Hasan to perform well, but he also struggled to play a huge innings and was dismissed for 26 runs. On the other side, Mahmudul Hasan Joy struggled in the first Test and was dismissed for 0 runs today. I had some faith in Mominul, but he went out for 22 runs. Now that Shanto and Mushfiq are at the crease, they must form an effective combination or they would be unable to score much. So far, BAN has scored 101 runs and lost three wickets. Now we'll see how many runs BAN can score in the first inning.

Actually, if we consider the ODI or T20 matches against Pakistan in this series, it is a different matter, if you look at the first Test match, you will see that the opening pair of the Bangladesh team performed very badly. But in this match, at least Mahmudul Hasan was able to score 52 runs, which is more.

Now it remains to be seen how far our captain Nazmul Hossain Shanto can take this score forward, and I am counting on Mushfiqur Rahim and Liton Das, but with Mominul Haque out for just 30 runs, I would say there will be pressure on Bangladesh. But still I am optimistic that Bangladesh team will win this match.

Why shaheen sitting out, pulled up hammy or what? And such a disrespect to Noman chacha.

The official announcement states that dropping Shaheen Shah Afridi as a routine rest window. However, some reports claim that there was a clash between Shan Masood and Shaheen Shah Afridi in the dressing room after the first Test. The captain blamed the bowlers for the loss, while Shaheen Shah Afridi blamed the batsmen for the loss.

Lol this team never fails to give meme material to cricket fans. Win-loss hardly matters, drama cup should keep going on. Won't be a over the top comments if someone says that this outfit runs like a village cricket.

If Bang Bros manages to cross the line then it would be their 4th test win on trot against Pakistan, away and home.

Bangladesh and Pakistan are playing the second test match and today is the second day. Bangladesh has played their first innings and they made 278 runs. And now Pakistan is playing their first innings and they also have lost 4 wickets and made 109 runs. Salman Agha and Babar Azam are on crease and they are trying well to make a good partnership. If they will give 100 runs lead so Pakistan can easily win this match. If this partnership will go long.

Test match was played between Pakistan and Bangladesh in which they played their first innings in which Bangladesh got the opportunity to bat first in which they have set a strong target of 278 runs in which Litton Das scored runs. The rest of the players have also shown good performance which increased the target. They have shown good performance in their first innings in bowling that can help them lead. the players of the Pakistan team are looking a little poor but babar azam scored 68 runs, they can show a better performance in the first innings. bangladesh bowlers have taken their wickets and lead 46 runs in first inning. Now let's see pak bowl in the second innings

It was a poor batting by the Pakistan team, got all out at 232 runs. Since the runs set by Bangladesh in the first innings were not much, they did not need to gather runs quickly. Instead, they could try to play defensive cricket, but with a poor mindset of smashing runs, and at the same time, their batsmen were struggling to judge the ball, as they did in the previous game. Yeah there is a difference in pitches from the last one to this, but it is the same for Bangladesh too but they are playing good cricket at least with a good mindset,

When Pakistan came to bat, I thought that another time Azan Awais might surprise us, but he did not. At the same time, he should not be overconfident in that one single century. He needs to focus more, for example, spend more and more time on the pitch and try to bat for a long time, not be hungry for runs, so it will automatically increase the ratio of runs and balls. It is just day 2 right now, and even though Bangladesh came to bat once again.

I expected more responsible batting from the Pakistani batsmen. But their performance is still very erratic. I thought Pakistan would be able to take the lead in the match. But they disappointed me again. Bangladesh were able to take a lead of perhaps 46 runs.

No one else among the Pakistani batsmen batted well except Babar Azam. Babar was able to score 68 runs. Besides, Sajid Khan was able to play a necessary innings of 38 runs off 28 balls. In the second innings, the batting of the Bangladesh batsmen was quite good. At the end of the day, they scored 110 runs for the loss of 3 wickets. Bangladesh is now ahead by 156 runs. Bangladesh will probably win if they can give a target of around 250.

You shouldn't expect a youngster to do well frequently in a bowling friendly pitch. He should do a little better in the 2nd innings. The pitch would be more difficult to bat in the 2nd innings. He was playing with patience, but got out for the unexpected movement of the ball. The match is completely in the favour of Bangladesh now. They will win the match if they can do well in the first session of day 3.

Exactly, one century should give to Azan Awais confidence. He is young and in the era of improving so he needs to focus on spending more time at the crease because big runs is common in long innings. It's only day 2, so this match still have many deficiencies and Pakistan needs good and discipline batting if they want strong backup.

The restructuring of the World Test Championship (WTC), or otherwise, may be left to the International Cricket Council (ICC), and there is no indication that the Chief Executives' Committee (CEC), meeting virtually on May 21, will take up the matter. In fact, the agenda for the CEC meet, it is learnt, has no mention of men's cricket. There is, however, an item related to women's cricket, apart from a couple of commercial matters - data monetisation and mobile gaming.

That matter is being left to the Board, which will meet in Ahmedabad on May 30 and 31, and any decision on the recommendations of the working group under Roger Twose will be taken by the all-powerful directors. The working group is understood to have recommended the inclusion of Ireland, Afghanistan and Zimbabwe in the WTC cycle and has also suggested that one-Test series be included as part of the championship.

The rest of the players have also shown good performance which increased the target. They have shown good performance in their first innings in bowling that can help them lead. the players of the Pakistan team are looking a little poor but babar azam scored 68 runs, they can show a better performance in the first innings. bangladesh bowlers have taken their wickets and lead 46 runs in first inning. Now let's see pak bowl in the second innings

Pakistan bowling in this match was enough good and tough, due to which they got an easy target ahead of time, which they could have achieved by making themselves strong, but Bangladesh is actually playing with a lot of effort and strength this time, so they are not giving Pakistan a chance to succeed in any way. If Bangladesh is careless in batting, then they are strengthening their own level by making efforts in bowling. Pakistan was expected to play well and strong in this innings, but they increased Bangladesh target again by scoring 232 runs, which will be their defeat. Except for Babar Azam, no one made any special effort and now defeat is brewing for them in the second innings as well. If Pakistan is not able to victory this match, then it will be a lot of disappointment for them, but still they will have to play with good changes.

Yeah there is a difference in pitches from the last one to this, but it is the same for Bangladesh too but they are playing good cricket at least with a good mindset,

At the end of the second day of play, Bangladesh is in good control of the match through their impressive bowling and batting. They are leading by 156 runs with 7 wickets remaining in the second inning. Anything above 300 could be challenging for Pakistan because in the last three innings their batting completely failed to perform. Bowlers are decent, but batting is having no depth their top order fails while Babar Azam is having some good batting, but alone he is not able to lead Pakistan to win.

Their selection is also questionable for this series. Now media reports are showing some rift in the dressing room, making things more problematic because with these reports, the team's morale has always gone down.

To win a contest you need to bowl and then bat well also. You can't win a game by just bowling well and throwing away wickets in batting. Pakistan batting in first innings was disappointed as they gave away Bangladesh a lead of 46 runs. Only Babar Azam was the one who batted well for his 68 runs and no other top order Batsmen joined him in scoring runs for the team. The Bangladesh team is once again batting well in second innings and they now have lead of 156. If Bangladeshi team is able to set a target of above 250 runs then it won't be possible for Pakistan to win this test.

Who knows how BAN wins with a modest aim of 278 runs? It was because of some intelligence and understanding in their bowling that they were able to win the game in this first innings. PAK had so many overs that they could complete this aim, then why couldn't they? Because they had heavy bowling, BAN catch their wickets. Khan added 38 runs, Masood added runs to the aim with a super performing of 21 runs. Agha also tried for 21 runs, then the aim could be earn. which also included PAK loss. This aim is also enough for PAK players, but for this, BAN bowling must be such that they will not give PAK an opportunity to score runs.

[JunaidAzizi]

Another worst display of batting from Pakistan, they bundled out on 232, Bangladesh able to secure a lead of 48 runs. This is going to be a good boost for them in the second inning. Their bowlers have done a good job and never allowed the Pakistani batsmen to play freely just Babar Azam scored 68 runs.

Sajid Khan, with 38, was the second-best scorer, while Shan Masood and Saud Shakeel left without having anything good for themselves and Pakistan. Nahid Rana and Tajul Islam are heroes for Bangladesh now they are going to start their second inning in a few minutes.

What a disappointing performance by the Pakistan team in the match, it was as if they were playing in street series matches. In bowling, they dominated the opposing team and controlled them tightly, but when it came to batting, they were all out one by one. Now, there is no doubt that the Bangladesh team will win this test series, and Pakistan has to go for more practice. The players perform well in the leagues, but when it comes to national matches, they play as if they are playing for the first time.

Actually, if we consider the ODI or T20 matches against Pakistan in this series, it is a different matter, if you look at the first Test match, you will see that the opening pair of the Bangladesh team performed very badly. But in this match, at least Mahmudul Hasan was able to score 52 runs, which is more.

Now it remains to be seen how far our captain Nazmul Hossain Shanto can take this score forward, and I am counting on Mushfiqur Rahim and Liton Das, but with Mominul Haque out for just 30 runs, I would say there will be pressure on Bangladesh. But still I am optimistic that Bangladesh team will win this match.

Mahmudul Hasan Joy failed in three innings and scored a half-century yesterday but he should have batted patiently. Anyway now Shanto and Liton and Mushfiqur have the potential to do well. If all 3 of them can perform well and give a target of 300+ runs then it is expected that Bangladesh will win. Currently Bangladesh team does not have a good quality all-rounder although Mehidy Hasan Miraz is considered an all-rounder but he is only doing well in bowling but is not performing as expected in batting. Bangladesh team lacks an all-rounder like Shakib. Anyway Bangladesh is leading by 156 runs, let's see how many runs Bangladesh can score.

Day 2 for Pakistan is not good because the behavior of pitch is totally supporting to Bowlers but in this tough situation Baber was so good and put a remarkable half century todays and this innings shows how much Babar is technically strong but the other batters don't played well and in lower order Sajid Khan played an unpredictable knock and as a bowler he played a impactful innings even better than batters and Pakistan ends the innings with good runs. Then Bangladesh starts the second innings after lunch break and Muhammadul Hassan was very impressive in this game and Pakistani bowlers have a good session during this innings and remains successful to gain three wickets. Currently Bangladesh is dominating because its has huge lead even after losing early on wickets.

Even I also thought that maybe he will also do the same thing in this match also but he at least tried to add some contribution to the team I think he cover the mominul haque position today.

Anyway, after Mominul Haque, Nazmul Hossain Shanto was out for just 15 runs, but Mushfiqur Rahim and Liton Das were able to create good resistance here. I think if they can increase their partnership further, like they have currently created a partnership of 100 runs, if they can create a partnership of 150 runs at the earliest, then if the rest of them can score some more runs, I think it is possible to take a lead of more than 350 runs over the Pakistan team, which will become difficult for the Pakistan team to chase.

Currently Bangladesh is dominating because its has huge lead even after losing early on wickets.

Bangladesh is taking full advantage of their home ground and the pitch. The pitch is very dry, and it becomes drier with the sun, causing the cracks to expand after each ball, which makes the pitch more bouncy and more supportive for the spinners, as the ball will spin a lot with the cracks. The Bangladesh team knows which balls will bounce and which will swing, and they are only hitting the balls that are perfect for the shot. At the start of the match, for the first few hours, the pitch is on the batting side, and they took advantage of it.

[Bitcoin_people]

In the first innings, Bangladesh team could not perform very well batting and scored only 278 runs. And in the second innings, Bangladesh team was able to bat well and scored 390 runs, especially Mushfiqur Rahim, he batted exceptionally in the test match, he scored a great century of 137 runs. However, Bangladesh team is very confident since they won the first test match, so they will plan to win the test series by defeating Pakistan in the second test match. Since Pakistan team scored only 232 runs in their first innings, Bangladesh team has given a target of 436 runs, it is very difficult for Pakistan to meet this target. I think this test match signals victory for Bangladesh because they have been able to give a big lead, so they will be able to defeat Pakistan if they can bowl well.

Bangladesh wonderful batting performance in second inning of match scoring 390 runs and give a 430 plus runs target to Pakistan in second test match. Mushfiqur Rahim played a responsible inning in second inning scoring a well deserved century and out after scoring 137 runs and assisted Bangladesh to scored 400 plus runs total on board. Khurram Shahzad bowl really well in first inning and also bowl well in second inning picking 4 important wickets, unfortunately just one wicket missing his five wicket haul in both inning of test match. I think Bangladesh have more then 70% chances of winning this test match also because its very difficult for Pakistan to survive in next 2 days of test match
