Rawalpindi, Sept 1 (UNI) Litton Das delivered a scintillating century under immense pressure to overshadow Khurram Shahzad’s six-wicket haul, leading Bangladesh to an astonishing fightback against Pakistan on the third day of the second Test at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium on Sunday.
The day saw a dramatic turnaround as Bangladesh, reduced to a disastrous 26 for six within the first hour, clawed their way back into the contest, leaving the match delicately poised.
Pakistan's bowlers, particularly Khurram, exploited the early moisture in the pitch, tearing through Bangladesh’s top order in a devastating opening spell. Khurram’s pace and precision left Bangladesh’s batters reeling as he accounted for Zakir Hasan, Shadman Islam, Najmul Hossain Shanto, and Shakib Al Hasan in quick succession.
