Rizwan keeps Pakistan alive after Bangladesh tighten grip on second Test

Mohammad Rizwan's unbeaten 75 kept Pakistan's hopes alive as the visitors finished Day 4 on 316-7, requiring another 121 runs to beat Bangladesh in the second Test at Sylhet International Cricket Stadium on Tuesday.

Resuming their chase in the ultimate session, Mohammad Rizwan and Salman Ali Agha held firm against a disciplined Bangladesh strike, frustrating the hosts with a crucial 100-operate stand for the sixth wicket that eased initial pressure.

Rizwan continued to anchor the innings, bringing up his 14th Test half-century, while Salman Ali Agha plus reached his 12th first-class fifty in red-ball cricket as Pakistan moved previous the 250-operate mark.

Yet, the 134-operate alliance was eventually broken when Taijul struck again, removing Salman for a well-compiled 71 off 102 balls, an innings featuring six fours and a six.

Pakistan then slipped further into trouble, losing their seventh wicket when Hasan Ali was dismissed for a duck, with Taijul claiming his fourth wicket of the innings. The visitors were left reeling at 304-7 in 83.2 overs.
