PAK vs BAN 2nd Test Dream11 Prediction: The Pakistan cricket team kicked off their home test season on an embarrassing note as they lost a Test match to Bangladesh for the first time in their history.
Veteran Bangladeshi cricketer Mushfiqur Rahim played an epic knock of 191 runs while four other Bangladesh batsmen recorded half-centuries. They helped their side take a 117-run lead in the first innings before Shakib Al Hasan and Mehidy Hasan Miraz combined to take 7 wickets and bowl Pakistan out for 146. Bangladesh chased down the small target of 30 runs to earn a historic away victory.
This series is part of the World Test Championship 2023-25. In the WTC standings, Pakistan have slipped to the 8th position and have 22.22 PCT (percentage of points won out of the total number of points contested), and Bangladesh are 7th with 35.00 PCT.
