Pakistan National Cricket Team vs Bangladesh National Cricket Team LIVE:
Hello and welcome to our coverage of Day 1 of the second Test between Pakistan and Bangladesh from the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium.
Unfortunately, rains have come in and played spoilsport resulting in the toss being delayed.
The hosts will be down badly after the crushing 10-wicket loss. But they will now look to come together as a group and put in a collective performance. Changes could be on the cards as Shaheen Afridi is not part of the starting 12.
Playing at least 2 spinners on a flat track as seen in Rawalpindi is an absolute must considering how easily Bangladesh was able to cross a 400+ score. Hopefully, the captain and the management can have a better read for the conditions and pick a suitable 11 accordingly.
For Bangladesh, it will now be up to them to step up and take on the challenge that lies ahead of them. In the previous game, they were favoured considering that Pakistan opted to not play a single spinner.
Having learnt from their mistakes it is up to the visitors to continue to pile on the pressure if they are to claim a series win.
Pakistan Playing XI: TBA
Bangladesh Playing XI: TBA
