On Thursday, Bangladesh locked horns against Pakistan in the third and final match of the series. In a dead-rubber match, the visitors shone bright as they handed the Tigers a whopping 74-run defeat.
Pakistan, who were trailing 0-2 in the series, put 178 runs on the board, courtesy of Sahibzada Farhan's fifty-plus score while opening the inning. In reply, Bangladesh had the worst of a start as the Litton Das-led side lost six wickets for just 34 runs on the board. Eventually, the Tigers tumbled for just 104 runs, courtesy of Salman Mirza's three-wicket haul.
