May 21, 2026, 11:32 AM BAN vs PAK 2nd Test: As it happened Interestingly, it was a Bangladesh spinner who made the difference between the two sides in the final two days of the series-deciding second Test in Sylhet. Defending 437 runs for a win, Taijul Islam picked up six wickets at an expense of 120 runs in his industrious 35-over workload. Taijul claimed the key wickets of Pakistan’s comeback man Babar Azam, captain Shan Masood, and senior all-rounder Salman Agha before mopping up the visitor’s tail at 358. For Pakistan, both Shan Masood and Salman Agha struck impervious half-centuries, while Mohammad Rizwan scored a fighting 94 off 166 balls with 10 boundaries. However, Rizwan’s dismissal at the hands of Shoriful Islam tilted the tide completely in Bangladesh’s favor early on Day 5. Earlier in the match, a Litton Das century pushed Bangladesh to 278 on the opening day, before three-wicket hauls from Nahid Rana and Taijul Islam kept Pakistan down for just 232 in response. Emboldened with a handy 46-run lead, a monumental 137 from Mushfiqur Rahim stretched Bangladesh’s total to 390 to set up an improbable target for the visitors. Pakistan slips to number eight on ICC WTC standings The outcome also forced the Pakistan team to slip further down to number eight on the 2025-27 World Test Championship (WTC) standings. Shan Masood and co. have managed to secure just a solitary win from their four matches this cycle, and have suffered crushing defeats in each of their last three Tests.

The first Test will be played between August 19 and August 23 at Headingley in Leeds.Also Read- CSK Players Warned For Using Notes
