Pakistan vs Bangladesh World Cup 2023 Highlights

Bangladesh’s skipper Shakib al Hasan, after winning the toss, decided to bat first, and the decision didn’t work for Bangladesh as they got the first shock in the very first over when Shaheen Afridi took the wicket of Tanzid Hasan. The second and third wicket fell after a few overs, and Bangladesh was on the backfoot, but Liton Das and Mahmudullah slowly built the partnership Bangladesh was looking for, though Mahmudullah scored his fifty, and unfortunately, Liton Das fell short of 5 runs to his fifty. Bangladesh’s skipper, Shakib al-Hasan, fought the situation and scored 43 runs, which led his team to a total of 204 runs. Bangladesh was bowled out in 45.1 overs.

While chasing the target of 205 runs, Pakistan’s batters started the innings like their team wanted them to, with left-hand right-hand combination Abdullah Shafique and Fakhar Zaman providing the start Pakistan was looking for. With their fearless batting, they made the target look like a cake walk. Both batters scored fifties, and after they got out, the match was already in the hands of Pakistan. Eventually, Pakistan won the match by 7 wickets and kept their hopes of being in the top 4 alive.
