      <title>Bangladesh set Pakistan 268-run target in first test</title>
      <link>https://english.aaj.tv/news/330458831/bangladesh-set-pakistan-268-run-target-in-first-test</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Bangladesh declared their second innings at 240 for nine on the final day of the first Test against Pakistan at the Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium in Mirpur, Dhaka, setting the visitors a target of 268 runs for victory.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Captain Najmul Hossain Shanto top-scored with 87, while Mominul Haque added 56.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;For Pakistan, Hasan Ali and Nauman Ali claimed three wickets each.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Resuming at 152 for three, Bangladesh added 88 runs while losing six wickets before declaring.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The morning session saw wickets fall rapidly, particularly as the hosts pushed for quick runs ahead of the declaration.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Najmul Hossain Shanto’s dismissal for 87 off Nauman Ali sparked a collapse, with Bangladesh losing four wickets for just 24 runs.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Mehidy Hasan Miraz (24) also fell to Nauman, who marked his 100th Test dismissal in the innings.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Overnight batter Mushfiqur Rahim was dismissed early on the final day, having added just six runs to his overnight 16, falling for 22.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Litton Das was next to go, dismissed for 11 by Shaheen Afridi, leaving Bangladesh at 192 for five.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Pakistan will have around 68 overs, lights permitting, to chase down the target.&lt;/p&gt;
