Bangladesh Takes Control Against Pakistan in Second Test

Bangladesh's strong bowling performance on Day 2 put Pakistan in a difficult position. Taskin Ahmed's early dismissals of both openers, Abdullah Fazal (9) and Azan Awais (13), gave Bangladesh an immediate advantage. Mehidy Hasan further compounded Pakistan's troubles by taking the wickets of Captain Shan Masood (21) and Saud Shakeel (8). Babar Azam's resilience is now critical for Pakistan to recover. Earlier, Litton Das's century helped Bangladesh reach a total of 278, recovering from a top-order collapse. His innings included 16 fours and two sixes. The partnership between Litton Das, Taijul Islam, Taskin Ahmed, and Shoriful Islam helped add valuable runs to the total. Pakistan will need a strong batting performance to get back in the game.
