Bangladesh on Wednesday registered a historic clean sweep for the first time against Pakistan in a Test series.
The visitors won the second Test of the two-match series by six wickets with experienced duo Mushfiqur Rahim and Shakib Al Hasan unbeaten at the crease.
Bangladesh achieved the 185-run target after lunch on day five in Rawalpindi.
The visitors inched their way to the target 25 minutes before tea on the fifth day to complete a 2-0 series sweep.
Earlier, Bangladesh resumed their innings at 42-0 in pursuit of their 185-run target. Pakistan got the first breakthrough when Mir Hamza bowled Hasan with a delivery that moved away. Later, pace bowler Khurram Shahzad got the wicket of Shadman Islam who miscued a drive, chipping to Shan at mid-off.
Najmul Hossain Shanto on 33 and Mominul Haque, 20, dug in to stop any further inroads with the captain bringing up their fifty partnership off the last ball before lunch.
He has hit four boundaries so far in his 33 off 68 balls while Mominul found the ropes twice in his 30 off 46 balls.
Bangladesh leads the two-match series 1-0 after a surprise win in Rawalpindi last month, their first in 14 tests against Pakistan.
They have only won two series away from home — against the West Indies in 2009 and Zimbabwe in 2021.
On the fourth day of the match on Monday, Hasan Mahmud took 5-43 while Nahid added 4-44 — both career-best figures — in dismissing Pakistan for 172 in their second innings and visiting openers Hasan and Islam raced to 42 without loss — with Zakir hitting two sixes and two boundaries — before rain clouds gathered and bad light suspended play one over after the tea break.
