Huge Lesson For Us On What To Expect From Our Conditions, Says Shan Masood
Mehidy Hasan Miraz: After a shocking 10-wicket defeat against Bangladesh in the first Test, Pakistan Test captain Shan Masood admitted that the outcome translates to the home side failing to read the conditions in Rawalpindi.
Bangladesh registered their first Test win against Pakistan in the 14th attempt. After posting 565 in their first innings in reply to Pakistan's declaration of 448-6, Mehidy Hasan Miraz and Shakib Al Hasan shared seven wickets between them to bundle out Pakistan for 146 in their second innings. Bangladesh chased the winning target of 30 without losing a wicket to script history.
In the opening match of the two-Test series, Pakistan opted for the all-pace attack but the move didn't go well in the match. "Never to make an excuse, it (the pitch) didn't play the way we thought it would. Also, the weather it had been around in Islamabad and Rawalpindi, it rained around 8-9 days before the first day of play. Firstly looking at the pitch, we expected it to do a bit more. With three pace bowlers, they were gonna be pushed to the limit," Masood said after the match.
