In the concluded test match between Bangladesh & Pakistan, the tourist Pakistan emerged victorious by an innings & 8 runs in a thriller. All the spectators witnessed an unusual incident on the ground in this rain-affected match. Pakistan skipper Babar Azam was seen bowling in international cricket for the first time. 

Babar picked up his maiden scalp in Bangladesh's second innings when he dismissed Mehidy Hasan on the 3rd delivery of the 76th over. Azam bowled just 2 overs in this innings. 

In the first innings of Bangladesh, Babar bowled just one over and gave away 1 run, but went wicketless despite creating a close chance. The Pak skipper showed everyone with just one over and that even he can bowl adequately if the team needs. 

Babar Azam proved to be the turning point of the match.
