Pakistani pacers dominate Bangladeshi batters

Haris Rauf grabbed four wickets, Naseem Shah picked up three and Shaheen Afridi scalped one victim on a pitch which was flat and didn't have much for the bowlers. 9 of 10 wickets were taken by Pakistani fast bowlers and Iftikhar Ahmed was the only spinner to get a wicket. This bowling line up is going to pose a threat to even the best batting line-up in the world.

Wicket! Shoriful Islam has been clean bowled for 1 by Naseem Shah. The right-arm pacer cleans up Bangladesh's tail in the first over of his new spell and the visitors have been bundled out for a paltry 193 in 38.4 overs.
