It was a win 16 years in the making.
Pakistan came to Bangladesh having beaten the Tiger every single time they’ve faced each other since the 1999 World Cup in England. It didn’t matter one lick. The Stars were thoroughly dominated, as Tamim Iqbal and Mashfiqur Rahim combined for 178 of Bangladesh’s total 329 runs. It total the margin of victory was 79 runs.
Not a single Pakistani bowler could find an answer for Bangladesh's hot bats. The Tigers’ 329 was their highest scoring total in the nation’s ODI history. It was just a masterful display.
Now Pakistan has had two days to lick their wounds, and will be looking to exact revenge. Will you be watching?
