Pakistan’s Batting Collapse: Highlights from the First Test Against Bangladesh

Rawalpindi: Pakistan’s batting collapsed in the first cricket test against Bangladesh. When play was suspended on the first day, Pakistan were 158 runs for four wickets.
Mohammad Rizwan (24 off 31 balls) and Saud Shakeel (57 off 92 balls) are on the rise. Bangladesh skipper Najmul Hussain Shanto won the toss and allowed Pakistan to bat first.
In the fourth over, Hasan Mahmood took the first wicket by taking Abdullah Shafiq (two) to Sakir Hasan. Skipper Shan Masood (six) and Babar Azam (0) could not continue. Shoriful Islam took Masood and Azam to keeper Liton Das. Saud Shakeel and opener Saeem Ayyub (56 off 98 balls with one six and four) took the team to a hundred.
Ayub was taken into the hands of Hasan Mahmud Mehdi Hasan Mirza. 98 runs for the fourth wicket. Former skipper Babar Azam was out for nothing and social media was flooded with trolls. When Assam returned, Pakistan were 16 for three in 8.2 overs. The dismissal of skipper Shan Masood was controversial. Shaan met Shoriful’s pitch bouncer with a defensive push. The Bengal players appealed when the ball reached the wicket keeper. Umpire Richard Kettlebrough dismissed the appeal. In the review, it was clear that Shan’s bat touched the ball. With that, the umpire was dismissed. The Pakistani skipper left the field after arguing strongly with the umpires. Pakistan came to play in Rawalpindi with four pacers. Three pacers and two spinners were included in the Bangladesh line-up.
