Pakistan defeated Bangladesh by 128 runs via the Duckworth–Lewis–Stern (DLS) method in the rain-affected second ODI at the Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium on Friday.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Maaz Sadaqat was the stand-out performer of the game, blasting a rapid 75 for Pakistan before picking up three wickets.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Chasing a revised target of 243 in 32 overs after a two-hour rain and hailstorm delay, Bangladesh collapsed for 114 in 23.3 overs despite a brief counterattack from Litton Das.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Bangladesh had already been in trouble before the weather halted play.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Tanzid Hasan fell early for one, caught at backward square leg off Shaheen Shah Afridi, while Saif Hassan departed for 12 after offering a catch to short mid-off off Mohammad Wasim Jr.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Captain Najmul Hossain Shanto was bowled by Afridi for a duck, leaving the hosts reeling at 27 for 3 in 6.3 overs when a sudden thunderstorm accompanied by hail forced the players off the field.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
When play resumed, Litton attempted to revive the chase with a series of boundaries including two sixes. He was eventually trapped lbw for 41 by part-time spinner Maaz Sadaqat.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Tawhid Hridoy made 28 off 38 balls before falling lbw to Haris Rauf, while Afif Hossain added 14 before becoming Sadaqat’s second victim.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Captain Mehidy Hasan Miraz managed just one run as Bangladesh’s innings folded quickly.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Rauf and Sadaqat claimed three wickets each to complete a dominant bowling performance for Pakistan.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Earlier, Bangladesh had fought back with the ball to bowl Pakistan out for 274 in 47.3 overs after a blistering start by the visitors.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Pakistan raced to 103 for the opening wicket inside 13 overs through an aggressive partnership between Sahibzada Farhan and Sadaqat.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Sadaqat struck 75 off 46 balls with six fours and five sixes, while Farhan scored 31 before falling to Taskin Ahmed.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Salman Agha later top-scored with 64 from 62 balls and shared a 109-run stand with Mohammad Rizwan (44), though Agha’s innings ended in a dramatic run-out by Mehidy Hasan Miraz at the non-striker’s end that sparked animated reactions on the field.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Leg-spinner Rishad Hossain finished as the pick of the bowlers with 3 for 56 as Pakistan were eventually bowled out for 274, a total that proved more than enough on a rain-shortened night in Mirpur.<\/p>\r\n", "image": "https:\/\/img.cricketnmore.com\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Pakistan-vs-Bangladesh-2nd-ODI-2026.jpeg", "alt_img": "Pakistan tour of Bangladesh 2026", "alt_title": "Pakistan vs Bangladesh 2nd ODI 2026", "image1": null, "video": null, "seo_title": "Pakistan Thrash Bangladesh by 128 Runs in Rain-Hit Second ODI On Cricketnmore", "seo_desc": "Pakistan defeated Bangladesh by 128 runs via the Duckworth\u2013Lewis\u2013Stern (DLS) method in the rain-affected second ODI at the Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium on Friday.", "seo_keywords": "Pakistan Tour Bangladesh 2026, Maaz Sadaqat, Litton Das, Haris Rauf, Shaheen Afridi", "tag": null, "tagging": "Pakistan Tour Bangladesh 2026,Maaz Sadaqat,Litton Das,Haris Rauf,Shaheen Afridi,", "status": "1", "img_rpt": "0", "google": "1", "standout": "0", "edapps": "0", "pulse": "0", "no_index": "0", "feed": "0", "fixture": null, "slug": "pakistan-thrash-bangladesh-by-128-runs-in-rain-hit-second-odi", "user_id": "0", "read_count": "1", "ians_date": null, "ians_time": null, "server_time": null, "trash": "0", "view_count": "491", "page_break": "0", "instant_articles": "1", "auto_link": "1", "created": "2026-03-14 08:25:32", "updated": "2026-03-14 08:25:32", "img_from": "Image Source: Google", "img_source": null, "schedule_publish": null, "news_keywords": "Pakistan Tour Bangladesh 2026, Maaz Sadaqat, Litton Das, Haris Rauf, Shaheen Afridi", "livescore_text": null, "livescore_link": null, "btn_text": null, "resend_feed": "0", "google_feed": "0", "read_more": "1", "posted_by": "19", "jio_date": "2026-03-14 08:25:32", "scheduled": "0", "news_now": "1", "breaking_news": "1", "google_date": null, "featured": "0", "pred_match_id": "Select", "article_content_type": null, "england_cricket": "0", "link": "https:\/\/www.cricketnmore.com\/cricket-news\/pakistan-thrash-bangladesh-by-128-runs-in-rain-hit-second-odi-190806" }
