Bangladesh finish 2-0 Test series whitewash over Pakistan
Bangladesh beat Pakistan by 78 runs in the second Test at Sylhet International Cricket Stadium on Wednesday to clinch the two-fit series 2-0.
Chasing a mammoth 437, Pakistan were bowled out for 358, handing the hosts a comprehensive victory and a series whitewash.
After resuming on day five following a summary shower interruption, Mohammad Rizwan and Sajid Khan added valuable runs in quick time, putting together a pivotal 50-plus stand that pushed the total beyond 350.
The alliance was eventually ended by Taijul Islam, who removed Sajid Khan for 28 off 36 balls, a brisk innings featuring five fours.
Soon after, Pakistan lost another wicket when Shoriful Islam dismissed Mohammad Rizwan for a superb 94 off 166 deliveries, an innings decorated with 10 boundaries.
