PAK vs BAN / Bangladesh seal first-ever Test win against Pakistan
Bangladesh recorded their first Test win over Pakistan in their 14th attempt in Rawalpindi, having previously lost 12 Tests since their first meeting in 2001.
Bangladesh on Sunday scripted history as they recorded their maiden Test win over Pakistan at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium.
Najmul Shanto's side beat the hosts by 10 wickets after being set a modest target of 30. Opting to field first, Bangladesh had started the Test on a high, leaving Shan Masood’s men reeling at 16 for three on the opening day. However, riding on middle-order batter Saud Shakeel (141) and wicket-keeper Mohammad Rizwan’s (171) rearguard centuries, Pakistan declared the first-innings at 448 for six.
Fielding an all-pace Test attack for the first time in 28 years, Pakistan were then put on the backfoot by Bangladesh as they racked up 565 in reply, earning a 117-run lead. Veteran Mushfiqur Rahim struck a 341-ball 191, backed by able fifties from Shadman Islam (93) and Mehidy Hasan (77) to fend off Pakistan.
The win marked Bangladesh’s first Test win over Pakistan in 14 attempts. They had previously lost 12 matches while securing a solitary draw since their first meeting in 2001. Bangladesh have now beaten nine of the 11-Test playing teams they met. They are yet to register a win over India and South Africa.
The win marked Bangladesh’s 20th Test victory across 143 matches and seventh away from home. The Tigers have previously won in twice in the Caribbean and Zimbabwe besides solitary wins in Sri Lanka and New Zealand.
Consequently, the Tigers also moved past Pakistan on the ICC World Test Championship 2023-25 points table standings with their second win in five games this cycle. Pakistan slipped to the eighth spot following their fourth defeat in six games this cycle, shrinking their points percentage (PCT) to 30.55.
The teams will meet in the second Test at the same venue starting August 30.

Shakib fined by ICC, Bangladesh also lost points
Shakib Al Hasan was fined and received a demerit point for throwing the ball at Mohammad Rizwan during a Test against Pakistan. Both teams also lost World Test Championship points due to slow over rates in the match.
Veteran Bangladesh all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan faced disciplinary action from the International Cricket Council (ICC) on Monday for violating the Code of Conduct during the first Test against Pakistan. The incident occurred after Shakib, who has been named in a First Information Report (FIR) related to the murder of a local Bangladeshi, threw the ball at Pakistan's wicketkeeper-batter Mohammad Rizwan during the second innings when Rizwan backed away from the crease.
The confrontation took place on Day 5 of the opening Test of the two-match series held in Rawalpindi. In the 33rd over of Pakistan's second innings, Shakib was about to deliver his second ball when Rizwan unexpectedly moved away, causing Shakib to lose his temper. In a moment of frustration, Shakib threw the ball directly at Rizwan, catching him by surprise. This outburst prompted on-field umpire Richard Kettleborough to intervene and have a stern discussion with Shakib immediately following the incident.
As a result of his actions, Shakib was penalized on Monday with a fine amounting to 10 percent of his match fee and received a demerit point for breaching Level 1 of the ICC Code of Conduct. The ICC penalized him under Article 2.9, which pertains to 'throwing a ball (or any other item of cricket equipment such as a water bottle) at or near a Player, Player Support Personnel, Umpire, Match Referee or any other third person in an inappropriate and/or dangerous manner during an International Match.'
In addition to Shakib's punishment, both Pakistan and Bangladesh were penalized for maintaining slow over rates during the first Test, which significantly impacted their chances of making it to the World Test Championship (WTC) final. Pakistan was found to be six overs short, resulting in the loss of six WTC points and a 30 percent fine on their match fees. Despite this setback, Pakistan remains in eighth position on the WTC points table, having secured two wins and suffered four losses in six Tests.
Bangladesh, who achieved a historic 10-wicket victory against Pakistan on Sunday, marking their first-ever Test win over their opponents, were found to be three overs short. Consequently, they lost three WTC points and slipped to seventh place on the points table, just behind South Africa.
The final match of the series between Pakistan and Bangladesh is scheduled to take place on August 30 in Rawalpindi.
