Pakistan set for white wash against Bangladesh

Pakistan set for white wash against Bangladesh

DHAKA: Pakistan are looking in sight of second successive victory to make a clean sweep in the two-match Test series against Bangladesh when the play ended on the penultimate day of the second Test here at the Shere Bangla National Stadium in Mirpur on Tuesday.

Bangladesh were reeling at 114 for five at stumps and they need further 19 runs to make Pakistan bat again.

Bangladeshi left-arm spinner Shakib Al Hasan finished with 6-82 as Pakistan were bowled out for 470 in their first innings before tea in reply to the hosts' 338.

Shakib, who smashed a career-best 144 in the first innings, became the first Bangladeshi to score a century and take five or more wickets in a Test.
