Pakistan vs Bangladesh 2026 1st Test Full Commentary

Shaheen Afridi to Mushfiqur Rahim. Out-swinging length ball, outside off stump on the front foot Leave, Left for no runs, fielded by Rizwan. That will be Stumps. The final session of Day 1 saw Bangladesh consolidate their strong position, closing at 301 for 4 after 85 overs. The highlight of the session was Mominul Haque's gritty 91, which provided stability alongside Mushfiqur Rahim who remains unbeaten on 48, as the pair built on the foundation set by captain Najmul Hossain Shanto's century earlier in the day. Litton Das joined Rahim and played cautiously, ending on 8 not out, as Bangladesh looked to preserve wickets heading into Day 2. Shaheen Afridi, Mohamma Abbas, Hasan Ali and Noman Ali picked up a wicket each for Pakistan. Bangladesh's batting resilience and partnerships have set up a strong foundation, leaving them well-placed to push for a commanding first-innings score on the second day. Join us tomorrow for Day 2.
