Litton and Mehidy lead Bangladesh’s splendid fightback in 2nd test against Pakistan

Associated Press  

RAWALPINDI, Pakistan — Century-maker Litton Das and Mehidy Hasan Miraz led a Bangladesh fightback in the second test, overshadowing Pakistan fast bowler Khurram Shahzad’s maiden five-wicket haul on Sunday. This wicket is not easy to bat on, and we have good spinners and pacers.” Shahzad snared 6-90 but both Litton and Mehidy counterattacked the right-arm seamer after lunch with an enterprising 165-run partnership while keeping sole specialist spinner Abrar Ahmed at bay as Pakistan’s third seamer Mohammad Ali left the field due to dehydration. Shahzad capped the best session of the series for Pakistan when he had Shakib Al Hasan leg before wicket before Litton and Mehidy dominated the pace and spin by raising a superb century partnership and led Bangladesh’s comeback. “Such phases do come in test matches,” Shahzad said, who shared the new ball with Hamza after Pakistan rested its frontline pacers Shaheen Shah Afridi and Naseem Shah for the second test.
