BAN Vs PAK LIVE Cricket Score, 1st Test Day 4: Bangladesh Lose Two Wickets As Pakistan Strike Early In Dhaka

Bangladesh's lead has crossed 50 runs and anything over 150 could be a defendable total, given the conditions at hand in Dhaka. Bangladesh batters will need to bat out the day and then give their bowlers a chance to bowl at PAK batters on day 5. However, if Shaheen Afridi and co get some wickets today, the visitors could have the match within their grasp.

BAN: 48-2 (19 Overs)

Pakistan's morning this! What a start for the visitors as they remove Shadman Islam with the lead still under 100 runs. Bangladesh could not cope with the pace and bounce and the morning zip that's assisting the new-ball bowlers. Lots of work to do for the hosts.

BAN: 23-2 (11Overs)

Mahmudul Hasan Joy was the first wicket to fall for Bangladesh as Pakistan made early inroads in the 1st Test on day 4. The opening batter saw his stumps being castled by the PAK bowler as the visitors clinched their first wicket.

BAN: 19-1 (7 Overs)

We are underway in Dhaka with Bangladesh looking to bat the day out against Pakistan, and stretch their lead on a wearing pitch, which will become a tasking affair for batters.
