Pakistan vs Bangladesh, ICC World Cup 2019, Highlights: PAK Thump BAN But Fail To Qualify For Semis

Pakistan crushed Bangladesh by 94 runs in a World Cup 2019 game at Lord’s on Friday (July 5) but it wasn’t enough to earn them a place in the semi-finals as New Zealand went through on net run-rate (NZ +0.175, PAK -0.43). After opting to bat first, Pakistan rode on Imam-ul-Haq’s century and Babar Azam’s 96 to post 315/9. For Bangladesh, Mustafizur Rahman (5/75) took his second five-wicket haul of the tournament - first was against India. In reply, Shakib Al Hasan (64) scored his seventh half-century of the World Cup but Bangladesh lost wickets at regular intervals and were bowled out for 221 in the 45th over, with Shaheen Afridi returning the best-ever figures for Pakistan at a World Cup (6/35).

Australia coach Justin Langer believes Steve Smith and David Warner will be under no extra pressure when they face South Africa for the first time since both batsmen were given 12-month bans for ball-tampering. Both sides face other at Old Trafford, on July 6.

19:24 hrs IST: Time for Bangladesh's reply. Tamim Iqbal to take strike. Mohammad Hafeez to open the attack. 

18:53 hrs IST: That's it. Back-to-back five-wicket hauls for Mustafizur but he misses a hattrick. Pakistan finish on 315/9. Pakistan need to bowl Bangladesh out for seven runs or less to qualify for semis. We'll be back in 30 minutes.

Sarfaraz is walking off! Massive blow for Pakistan. Doesn't look fit enough to go for the big shots. Wahab Riaz comes to the crease. 

18:19 hrs IST: Costly over from Saifuddin, 11 off it. Pakistan are 267/5 after 45 overs. Imad 9*, Sarfaraz 2*

Sarfaraz hit hard near his right elbow at the non-striker. He gets some treatment and is ready to continue. 

18:08 hrs IST: OUT! Sohail falls cheaply. 100th ODI wicket for Mustafizur. He's got to the landmark in 54 games. Good phase for Bangladesh, three wickets in the last 24 balls. Pakistan are 256/5 after 44 overs. 

18:01 hrs IST: OUT! Full from Mehidy, on off, Hafeez sweeps off his pads. It's in the air, and the fielder at deep backward square - Shakib - completes a neat catch. Mehidy finishes with 1/30. Imad Wasim comes to the crease. Pakistan are 249/4 after 43 overs. 

17:54 hrs IST: Single towards long-on and that's a century for Imam - his maiden 100-plus score and also the first at Lord's. Huge applause from the crowd!

Pakistan need to score above 350 to stand a chance. Looks possible given the way Azam is batting.

The Windies had not tasted victory since their first match of the tournament against Pakistan, back on May 31, ending their long wait for further success with a 23-run triumph.

16:23 hrs IST: Nice and tidy from Mosaddek, four off it. Boundaries hard to come by. Pakistan are 98/1 after 21 overs. Azam 45*, Imam 35*.

15:26 hrs IST: Mehidy continues to keep things tight. 4-0-6-0. Outstanding figures! Pakistan are 23/0 after 7 overs. Fakhar 13*, Imam 10*

15:23 hrs IST: FOUR! Full from Saifuddin, outside off, Imam gets forward to the pitch of the ball and times it through extra cover. Shot! Pakistan are 22/0 after 6 overs. Fakhar 12*, Imam 10*

15:19 hrs IST: Magnificent over from Mehidy, just off it. Pakistan are 17/0 after 5 overs. Fakhar 11*, Imam 6*

14:33 hrs IST: Pakistan have won the toss and have opted to bat

14:11 hrs IST: The all-important toss in 20 minutes

14:06 hrs IST: They came to see Chris Gayle; instead they had to settle for watching the future of West Indies batting. Gayle was supposed to be the story at Headingley, playing his final match at an ICC Cricket World Cup.

A pair of tantalizing landmarks were within reach. Brian Lara’s record number of one-day runs for the West Indies would be beaten with a score of 18. If he reached 47 he would overhaul Lara as the Windies’ record run-getter in World Cups. A nick behind off the bowling of Dawlat Zadran when on just seven ended his hopes of breaking either but Gayle’s impact will not be remembered for the numbers.

13:51 hrs IST: BIG NUMBER - Shakib Al Hasan has scored 542 runs so far, the most by a Bangladeshi at a single edition; in the process he has recorded six scores of 50+, only Sachin Tendulkar has recorded more in an edition of the tournament (seven in 2003).

13:42 hrs IST: Mustafizur Rahman needs two more for 100 scalps in ODIs.

13:34 hrs IST: This will be the second meeting between Pakistan and Bangladesh at a World Cup, the first match took place when the tournament was last held in England (1999, Bangladesh won by 62 runs).

13:28 hrs IST: Pakistan have won their last three World Cup 2019 matches; after becoming champions in 1992 they have only managed more consecutive victories at a single edition twice (four in both 1999 and 2015).

13:24 hrs IST: STAT ATTACK - Bangladesh have won their last four ODIs against Pakistan. Prior to this, Pakistan had recorded 31 wins from 32 clashes against the Tigers, including 25 in a row.

13:19 hrs IST: Hello and welcome to Outlook's live coverage of the ICC World Cup 2019 game between Pakistan and Bangladesh. 

Reaching the knockout stages remains a mathematical possibility for Sarfraz Ahmed's side following fourth-placed New Zealand's loss to hosts England on Wednesday. (RESULTS)

Yet, in reality, an improbable result of freak proportions will be required if the fifth-placed side are to overhaul a Black Caps team two points clear of them and with a superior net run rate. (POINTS TABLE)

So what does Pakistan need to do today?

If they are to stand any chance of extending their stay in England at all, they must bat first.

Should the toss go their way, they will then be required to record a victory of well in excess of 300 runs - 311 runs after posting 350 or by 316 runs after scoring 400 - in order to better New Zealand's net run-rate, which stands at +0.175 as opposed to Pakistan's score of -0.792.

Bangladesh have proven tricky opponents throughout the tournament and in star all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan possess one of the top performers of this World Cup. 

Shakib has already claimed a place in the record books by becoming the first all-rounder in tournament history to score 500 runs and claim 10 wickets - and he is unlikely to be finished yet. 

TOURNAMENT SO FAR

With four wins from their opening eight matches - including the scalps of England and New Zealand - there are plenty of positives for Pakistan to take from this World Cup. Consistency has evaded them, however, and there is an air of resignation to their fate.

It is a tournament which has delivered some memorable moments for Bangladesh too. That opening-match triumph over South Africa has set the tone for a series of spirited - and, on three occasions, winning - performances with the superb Shakib right at the very heart of it.

WHAT THEY SAID

Pakistan captain Sarfraz Ahmed: "Definitely, we're interested in finishing on a high note. So we will try our best. It is very difficult - 316 runs is a big margin. Only if you're batting first, if you score 600 runs or 500 runs. I don't know what the study is behind (how positions are decided in future World Cups) but I can't do anything."

Bangladesh coach Steve Rhodes: "There's no such thing as a dead rubber. Both teams desperate to beat each other. We certainly are. I'm pretty sure they are. They've got a lot to play for as well. So, we're looking to obviously win. We want to win. So if we can take the scalp of Pakistan in the World Cup, we'll be very, very proud of the boys."
