Mushfiqur Rahim stars with bat in hand as Bangladesh score 565 runs in PAK vs BAN 2024 1st Test

After asking hosts Pakistan to bat first, Bangladesh did a terrific job of going past Pakistan's total of 448. They had a shaky start, losing Zakir Hasan and skipper Najmul Hassan Shanto cheaply. Mominul Haque (50 off 76) and Shadman Islam (93 off 183) added some solidity, scoring 94 runs for the third wicket.

Shadman Islam lost his wicket as he was approaching his century while Mominul was dismissed soon after he got to the landmark. Later, it was the duo of Litton Das (56 off 78) and Mushfiqur Rahim (191 off 341) who stitched another partnership, with the latter scoring his 11th Test 100.

A handy knock from Mehidy Hasan Miraz (77 off 179) and a cameo from Shoriful Islam (22 off 14) ensured that Bangladesh scored 565 in 167.3 overs and led by 117 runs.

Pakistan walked out to bat again and lost opener Saim Ayub cheaply. At the time of writing, Pakistan are on 6/1 after four overs with Abdullah Shafique (4*) and Shan Masood at the crease.
