Bangladesh pacers take all 10 wickets for the first time in Test

Bangladesh pacers inscribed their name in the country's cricket folklore by claiming all 10 wickets of Pakistan in the second innings of the series deciding Test on Monday at Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium.

This is the first time in their 144 Test matches, Bangladesh pacers were able to take all 10 wickets to fall in a Test innings against any opponents.

Bangladesh's three-pronged pace attack, comprised with Taskin Ahmed, Hasan Mahmud and Nahid Rana scythed down the Pakistan's second innings, helping the side close in on a series victory.

Hasan Mahmud was the stand out, registering his maiden five-wicket haul in his just third Test. While he snapped up 5-43, young pedigree Nahid Rana also sensed a maiden five-wicket haul but ended up with 4-44. Senior pacer Taskin Ahmed took the rest of the wicket.

Hasan took two wickets on Day 3 to leave Pakistan at 9-2 and on Day 4, Taskin gave the first breakthrough, taking out Saim Ayub.

Hasan and Nahid Rana then wrecked havoc on Pakistan batters with the intriguing combination of swing and raw pace that left the hosts speechless at their own den. Pakistan eventually were all out for 172, setting just 185-run target for Bangladesh to win the game.    —BSS
