PAK vs BAN 2nd Test Preview
PAK vs BAN 2nd Test Preview, Bangladesh completely outplayed the hosts in the first test and claimed their maiden victory against Pakistan in test cricket history, and now the Bangla Tigers are aiming to win or at least draw the second and final test to win the series.
Batting first, Pakistan steadied their ship after losing three quick wickets and eventually posted 448 for 6, which is a not at all a weak total. But if their in-form batter was playing at 171*, and was controlling the game, the move to declare the innings backfired for them.
