Shan Masood headed the team. Pakistan gave up a 117-run advantage in the first inning of the first Test of the current two-match series at Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium and could only muster 146 runs in the second, leaving Bangladesh with a 30-run target on the last day of the Test.

Not many teams lose a Test at home after declaring their first innings, according to a tweet from Chopra following Bangladesh’s historic 10-wicket victory against Pakistan in the first Test match. He added that Pakistan cricket is a gift that keeps on giving, mocking the Asian heavyweights.
“Not many teams go to lose a Test match after declaring their first innings with 400+ runs and 4 wickets to spare. At Home. Pakistan cricket is a gift that keeps giving.”
Spinner performed well in the match
Spinners Mehidy Hasan Miraz and Shakib Al Hasan combined for seven wickets in the second innings on Sunday, capping an incredible victory for the team captained by Najmul Hossain Shanto. In 11.5 overs, Mehidy finished with 4 for 21, while former captain Shakib took three wickets for 44 runs.
Mohammad Rizwan, Pakistan’s first-inning centurion, scored 51 runs in the second inning as well, but his effort was in vain as the hosts lost their fourth straight Test match captained by Shan Masood. Bangladesh, which has been criticized for not winning enough Test matches, has now defeated Australia, England, and Pakistan once apiece. In just 143 Tests, they had only won six of them, at Rawalpindi.
