Bangladesh clinched a historic first-ever Test series victory over Pakistan defeating them by 6 wickets in the second Test in Rawalpindi today (Sept 3).

Earlier in the day, Bangladesh lost their 4th wicket in the chase of 185 against Pakistan on Day 5.

The visitors resumed their innings at 42/0 as they needed 143 runs more to win. Earlier, Pakistan were bundled out for 172 on Day 4. 

Bangladesh's pace bowlers have made history by taking all 10 wickets in a single Test innings for the first time in the nation’s cricketing history.

Nahid Rana also achieved his career-best figures, taking four wickets, including three in a single five-over spell.

In the first innings, off-spinner Mehidy Hasan Miraz took five wickets, hinting that spin might dominate the match. However, the Bangladeshi pacers overturned that expectation.

Bangladesh had already won the first match of the two-Test series by 10 wickets, marking their first-ever Test win against Pakistan.
