Reflecting on the match, Bangladesh’s spinners played a pivotal role in their historic win. Mehidy Hasan Miraz and Shakib Al Hasan shared seven wickets between them, dismantling Pakistan’s batting lineup on the final day. Mehidy, in particular, was outstanding, taking 4-21, while Shakib contributed significantly with figures of 3-44. Their combined efforts triggered a collapse that saw Pakistan bowled out for just 146 runs in 55.5 overs, leaving Bangladesh with a modest target of 30 runs for victory.

Despite some resistance, particularly from Mohammad Rizwan, who top-scored for Pakistan with a determined 51 that included six boundaries, the home team’s chances looked bleak by lunch. Pakistan were already struggling at 108-6 by the interval. The final session saw Mehidy Hasan Miraz deliver the crucial blows, dismissing Rizwan and trapping last man Mohammad Ali for a duck in successive overs.

Chasing a simple target, Bangladesh’s openers, Zakir Hasan and Shadman Islam, wasted no time. They knocked off the required runs in just 6.3 overs. Zakir sealed the match with a boundary, finishing unbeaten on 15, while Shadman contributed nine runs to the total. Their celebration marked a momentous occasion in Bangladesh cricket history, as their team secured a memorable victory that has sent ripples through the cricketing world.
