Spinner Mehidy Hasan Miraz took five wickets as Bangladesh bowled out Pakistan for 274 on day two of the second Test at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium in Rawalpindi on Saturday.

After Abdullah Shafique was bowled out by Taskin Ahmed in the first over, skipper Shan Masood and opener Saim Ayub built up a flamboyant partnership. Both the players made half-centuries but soon they fell with a couple of more wickets that included former captain Babar Azam and Saud Shakeel.

Masood was routed by Mehidy Hasan on 57 while Ayub got stumped at 58.

Mohammad Rizwan (18*) and Salman Ali Agha (0*) are on the crease.

After tea break, third session will be played from 3:15pm to 5:15pm, then the game could be extended by half an hour to complete the day’s overs.

Spinner Abrar Ahmed and left-arm medium pacer Mir Hamza have replaced fast bowlers Naseem Shah and Shaheen Shah Afridi, who has been released to spend time with his family.

Whereas, Bangladesh brought Taskin in and rested Shoriful Islam.

It should be noted that the first day of the Test was washed out without even a toss.

The 12-member Pakistan squad for the second Test match against Bangladesh includes captain Masood, Ayub, Shafique, Azam, Shakeel, Rizwan, Agha, Naseem Shah, Khurram Shahzad, Abrar, Hamza and Muhammad Ali.
