Commentary
Both one-sided games and the series is level 1-1. We will hope for a cracker of a decider. We will be there on the 15th to bring it to you. Till then it's time to take leave. Bye bye for now.
Shaheen Shah Afridi | Pakistan captain: "No, I think last game, that's not in our way, early wicket [wickets]. We had a good partnership in first game and then back-to-back wickets, same tonight as well. But yeah, a simple message, go and play your own game. (on the pitch) I think this pitch is totally different, whenever we come here, there was more spin, we feel it will be like helpful for fast bowlers and that's why we bring four fast bowlers and I think they bowled really well. Really happy. (on areas of improvement) No, I think that back-to-back wickets we lost, we have to like, you know, add up a good partnership. Till then, we lost wicket [wickets] in the middle overs as well. We need to improve that one as well as a team. And that series, we just build our team for the World Cup and that's our goal. And also mentioned that Maaz Sadaqat, really happy for him as a team. All team is really happy, youngster had a very good match performance. So happy for him."
Maaz Sadaqat | Player of the Match (translated from Urdu): Yes, absolutely. After the last meeting we spoke about playing our natural game and we followed that. (what did you do differently today?) In the last match it was like it was my first match so there was a little bit of pressure as well, and today I brought a little change which I followed by playing my natural game. I am basically a batting all-rounder, and for some time now I have been working in bowling with Ash (Ashley Noffke) bhai who is our coach, so from that I am getting a lot of help.
Mehidy Hasan Miraz | Bangladesh captain: "I think, yes, we [have to] take the advantage first 10 overs. You know, the last match was excellent. The bowler [bowlers] bowled really well. We just took the advantage, but we didn't execute well because, you know, first 10 overs we giving [gave] many runs and obviously goes to credit them. They played really, really well first 10 overs. (what was the chat from the top-order?) Yes, I think, obviously, it's a very good wicket to bat on, like, you know, so we have a little mistake. So the top-order batsmen didn't get runs. So I think it's been a problem and we have to look for these things. (on what they need to do for the decider?) Yeah, definitely. Yes, we have to improve our batting unit because, you know, we bowled really well and we are great comeback. I think we have to focus on our batting unit. You have to take responsibility as well because, you know, if you're not getting runs, definitely we are not [in] good positions. (on the Agha run-out) Yes, he's just away from the wickets, you know, like, you know, I'm just looking for the ball. Yes, if you miss, definitely he [he's] going for the run. So I'm just think [thinking] about like that."
22:54 Local Time, 16:54 GMT, 22:24 IST: 114 all-out! Pakistan give Bangladesh a taste of their own medicine. That was the score Pakistan were bowled out in the first game. Now Bangladesh have been dismissed for the same score. What a fine win this is by Pakistan. Sets up the decider nicely. Shaheen Shah set the tone up top with wickets of Tanzid and Shanto and Wasim Jr chipped in with Saif Hassan's wicket. Then with Bangladesh struggling, thunder and lightning along with rain came to stop play for around 133 minutes. When the revised conditions came into effect, it was the turn of Sadaqat with his SLA to chip in with three wickets as he capped off a fine all-round performance. Rauf who came in for this game in place of Abrar finished with a three-fer. Litton and Hridoy played some nice shots but once the former fell, the others didn't hang around long. Pakistan with a clinical bowling performance and credit to the groundstaff too for getting the ground ready in time for a game to happen. The series is now 1-1 and we wait for the final game on the 15th. Stay tuned for the post-match stuff...
