00:30Hello and welcome to the highlights of day 2 of the first test of the Bank Kulfila Presents
00:36Blue World City Test Series, Pakistan vs Bangladesh.
00:40Pakistan ended day 1 at 158 for 4 after losing the first session due to a wet outfield.
00:46It was courtesy Saim Ayub and Saud Shakeel who put on 98 together.
00:50Saim fell right after T at 56.
00:52Saud Shakeel remained unbeaten for 57 joined by Rizwan who opened his account on day 2 at 24.
00:59For the Bangladesh bowlers, after the 3 quick wickets they did manage to pick up one more
01:03courtesy Hassan Mehmood who ended his tally on day 1 with 2 wickets.
01:08Shariful Islam was the other wicket taker as well, 2 apiece to each of them.
01:13Now time to join the action at the start of day 2.
01:20Alright then, Rizwan is ready.
01:24Let's get the action underway.
01:28Straight away.
01:29A play and a miss and the zip and carry.
01:34They've got the right players in the right positions.
01:38Evades the deep backward point and should make its way to the fence.
01:42First boundary of the day.
01:44Also the 50 partnership between the two.
01:50Too full this time around.
01:51Cover drive.
01:53Half volley put away.
01:56Couple of good partnerships.
01:5798 earlier on yesterday.
02:02Oh, spot of bother.
02:04But somehow he's managed to, I don't know how, pick a boundary.
02:10Bring up the 50 for Mahmoud Rizwan.
02:12It was a bit of a tangle, wasn't it?
02:19There you go.
02:20Again.
02:21This time, oh, even better.
02:23One bounced into the fence.
02:25So just to show that it was no fluke, he does it again.
02:30That's in the air.
02:32And out of the park.
02:34That's a good hook shot from Rizwan.
02:38Yeah, he's got a little open stance.
02:39He's coming round the wicket to bowl at him.
02:41And this is his favourite go-to zone, the pick-up shot.
02:44And he was in good position.
02:46Exactly what you, as if he knew what was coming.
02:50Takes his partnership to 99.
02:52And he's got a little open stance.
02:54He's coming round the wicket to bowl at him.
02:56And this is his favourite go-to zone, the pick-up shot.
02:5998.
03:05Nice shot.
03:06Just between the two fielders in the wee.
03:08And it's doing well, the outfield, compared to what it was yesterday.
03:124-2 Rizwan.
03:18Defends solidly.
03:20He does Rizwan.
03:21He turns away and walks off.
03:23So the first session done, Pakistan.
03:28And at 98 without losing a wicket.
03:33Day 2 saw the sun beating down on the Rawalpindi surface.
03:36With a tinge of green and a slight bit of moisture still on the surface,
03:40there was expectation of Bangladesh bowlers,
03:42especially with the first hour with the new ball.
03:45At the end of session 1, on day 2,
03:47Pakistan managed another 98 runs in the session
03:50and more so, importantly, without losing a wicket.
03:53Mohammad Rizwan quickly scored 89,
03:56surpassing Saud Shakir who remained unbeaten at 86.
04:00It was a hard-toiled first session on day 2 for Bangladesh bowlers
04:04and the wicket's column remained unchanged.
04:08Let's now join the action post-launch on day 2.
04:13Start of the second session.
04:14Here's the off-spinner Mehdi Hassan with the first ball.
04:17Go, go, go, go, go, go!
04:48Launches it. Yes, he does.
04:50He hits it over, mid-on and gets the ball to the fence
04:54and gets to his century.
04:56Very impressive innings from Mohammad Rizwan.
04:58His third century and cements his place
05:01as number one wicket-keeper batter in Test match cricket for Pakistan.
05:06Yeah, when he arrived at the crease,
05:08Pakistan was in a spot of bother.
05:11The ball was offering something.
05:18Hasn't been able to finish off well.
05:22And he gets there, Saud Shakir.
05:25What an innings from him.
05:28Third Test match hundred.
05:32First at Rawalpindi and Saud Shakir carries on his merry way.
05:36Leverage is still swelling.
05:38It has been a very composed, typical Saud Shakir innings.
05:42As brilliantly timed away.
05:44And it will have the legs to get into the boundary.
05:53Not that time.
05:55The sound of the bat and the timing.
05:59Saud Shakir just marches on.
06:13At the moment, even the short ball
06:15has been played so well.
06:17He's played that with an angled bat
06:19so that the ball stays down.
06:21He's not one of those who goes for those big sixes.
06:27Again a short delivery.
06:29Nicely put away.
06:31It's not working, but they're not
06:34getting the message.
06:36Because if you see a batter...
06:43Lovely piece of timing.
06:45Wrong line.
06:47And four more.
06:49The runs are coming thick and fast here.
06:54Better. Much better.
06:56A bit of turn for him as well.
06:59Was Saud Shakir overbalanced on that occasion?
07:03Okay.
07:05Go have a zoom with that, please.
07:07Gargan.
07:09Okay.
07:11Is that the only angle that you have, Gargan, at the moment?
07:27Okay.
07:30Okay.
07:33Okay, the wicket is broken there.
07:35The toe is on the line.
07:37There's nothing behind the line.
07:39So the batsman is not on his ground.
07:42So I'm ready for my decision on the big screen.
07:59He has to help his teammates as well.
08:01That's played with authority and off the back foot.
08:03And it's the first boundary for Salman Ali Agha.
08:09To be bogged down.
08:11Scores briskly.
08:15It's just bat normally.
08:17It's just bat normally.
08:19It's just bat normally.
08:21It's just bat normally.
08:23It's just bat normally.
08:25It's just bat normally.
08:27It's just bat normally.
08:31You get a Mehmed first inning total on the board.
08:35To grind the opposition.
08:37It's tea.
08:39And Pakistan in a very strong position.
08:44The end of the second session saw Pakistan at 367 for 5
08:48with a 240 run partnership between Rizwan and Saud Shakir
08:52finally broken.
08:54As the offspin from Mehdi Hassan Miraz
08:56managed to get Saud Shakir for 141.
08:59Rizwan on the other hand remained unbeaten 134.
09:03The wickets column did turn around with Mehdi Hassan Miraz
09:06with that one wicket of Saud Shakir.
09:10Let's head back to the commentators.
09:20Shaqib to start.
09:21He's been quite tidy.
09:22Just 67 from his 20.
09:24Oh, he comes down.
09:26And he goes big.
09:28What a shot from Rizwan.
09:32And he's got a bit of cramp.
09:35From Mohamed Rizwan.
09:37Dances down the track and gives it a crack.
09:40Right out of the middle of the bat.
09:42We heard it on Stump Camp.
09:54He's called for two immediately.
10:01And he'll get one more.
10:04And he'll get one more.
10:05And that also brings up 150 runs for Mohamed Rizwan.
10:11He's the first wicketkeeper from Pakistan since 2009.
10:16To score 150 or more.
10:19Isn't a great cause of concern.
10:21But the cause of concern right now
10:23is that Salman Ali Agha has been dismissed.
10:28Shaqib Al-Hassan with the ball.
10:30Just turning slightly.
10:31Salman trying to go over mid-wicket.
10:33The leading edge.
10:34And he departs.
10:38Yes, the spinner who's done the trick for Bangladesh.
10:41Earlier it was Mehdi Hassan Miraz who's taken the catch.
10:44This time around he's trying to flick it away.
10:47On the onside.
10:48Gets the leading edge.
10:50And it is as simple as that.
10:51He gobbles it up.
10:53Easily.
10:55Lovely delivery from Shaqib Al-Hassan.
10:58To send back Salman Ali Agha for 19.
11:01Pakistan, six down for 398.
11:05And there you go.
11:06Shahenshah Fridi.
11:07Well, we know he only bats one way.
11:11And he smashed that to the fence.
11:14With that boundary.
11:15The 400 comes up for Pakistan.
11:21Well, he tries to drag it down.
11:23But Shahenshah Fridi.
11:25With that boundary.
11:26The 400 comes up for Pakistan.
11:29Well, he tries to drag it down.
11:31But Shahenshah Fridi smashes it away.
11:35Almost flat backs this.
11:37Over the rope for a maximum.
11:45Good use of the feet.
11:46And out she goes.
11:48Nails it quite nicely.
11:52He tried to go a little bit wider.
11:59Sweep shot.
12:01Aerial.
12:03And that's gone through.
12:06And it's gone to the fence.
12:08Shaqib not happy.
12:15Thinking.
12:16Should be more than a couple.
12:17In fact, he's hit that hard off the back foot.
12:20That should go to the boundary.
12:22Yes, it does.
12:29Smashes that one.
12:31Into the long on region.
12:33For a maximum.
12:34Shahenshah Fridi.
12:36Is looking to be in top gear.
12:38From the moment he's arrived.
12:41He likes to hit the ball.
12:43With horizontal bat.
12:44Quickish delivery.
12:46A perfect length.
12:48The intention was.
12:49To hit the ball aerial.
12:51And then.
12:52The bat opened.
12:54Ever so slightly in his hands.
12:57That was a sharp.
12:58Good delivery.
12:59Knowing that Shaheen is backing up.
13:024-4-8.
13:03For six.
13:06Well, there comes the signal.
13:07From the dressing room.
13:08Pakistan have declared.
13:10At 448 for six.
13:13So, Shahan Masood feels.
13:14That Pakistan have had enough.
13:18Shahan Masood at the end of.
13:19113 overs.
13:20Decided to go to the boundary.
13:22And that's gone to the boundary.
13:24At the end of 113 overs.
13:25Decided to call.
13:27Mohammad Rizwan.
13:28And Shahenshah Fridi.
13:29Back as he declared.
13:30At 448 for six.
13:32Where Rizwan remained unbeaten.
13:34For 171.
13:35From 239 deliveries.
13:39Shaqibul Hasan.
13:40Was the lone wicket taker.
13:41In that session.
13:42As he picked up the wicket.
13:43Of Salman Ali Agha.
13:44And that total tally.
13:45To 448 for six.
13:49It's now time.
13:50To join the action.
13:51As the Bangladeshi openers.
13:52Make their way out.
13:55To the boundary.
13:56For four.
14:10Passes through that.
14:11Slip and gully.
14:12Down to the boundary.
14:13For four.
14:21Slashes hard.
14:22Over the top of the.
14:23Boundary.
14:24For four.
14:33Timing is extremely good.
14:35He just pushed it.
14:36To the onside.
14:37And that has.
14:38Skipped away to the fence.
14:45That will trickle away to the.
14:47Fence.
14:48It is.
14:49Legs by.
14:50Just missing his line.
14:53And that will be the.
14:54Match.
14:57For the round.
14:58Left alone.
15:01Comfortably.
15:02Bangladesh.
15:03Do a job.
15:04The openers do a job.
15:05They survive.
15:06The 12 overs.
15:07That Pakistan.
15:08Have bowled at them.
15:09They go.
15:10Into stumps.
15:1127 without loss.
15:13Will be happy.
15:14With the day's play.
15:15The batting unit.
15:16Led by.
15:17Shao Shaqil.
15:18And Rizwan.
15:19Made sure.
15:20That it is.
15:22After Pakistan's.
15:23Captain.
15:24Shaan Masood.
15:25Decided to declare.
15:26At 448.
15:27For six.
15:28He was hoping.
15:29For early inroads.
15:30Against the Bangladeshi.
15:31Batters.
15:32Wasn't to be.
15:33As Bangladesh scored.
15:3427.
15:35Without the loss.
15:36Of a wicket.
15:37For their 12 overs.
15:38Hope you've enjoyed.

15:40From Pakistan.

15:42First test.
15:43We hope to see you tomorrow.
