Taskin Ahmed to Fakhar Zaman
FOUR! Top shot! Pitched-up delivery on the stumps, Fakhar Zaman shows the full face of the bat and punches it on the up and the ball just races away between mid off and mid on for a boundary.

Taskin Ahmed to bowl from the other end.

Mahedi Hasan to Fakhar Zaman
DROPPED! Taskin Ahmed never seemed to be under control there. Flatter one at the stumps, Fakhar Zaman goes for the hard sweep but gets a top edge that goes high and swirls around the short fine leg region. Taskin fumbles the catch and the batters take one run. How costly could that prove to be?

Mahedi Hasan to Fakhar Zaman
Mahedi fires the ball in towards the batter and Zaman gets cramped for room as he tries to open up the off side and has to block it off.

Done and dusted with the pre-match formalities and it is now time to get the play underway. The umpires are out in the middle and so are the players of Bangladesh. It will be the duo of Fakhar Zaman and Saim Ayub to open the innings for Pakistan. Mahedi Hasan, the off-spinner to take the new ball. Let's play...
!
We are just a few minutes away from the start of the match, but first, the two sets of players and the mascots will lineup for the national anthems. It will be the national anthem of Pakistan followed by the national anthem of Bangladesh.

PITCH REPORT - Former Pakistani opener, Aamer Sohail, with the pitch report. He says that there has been rain around here in Dhaka, building up to the game. He mentions that the pitch sounds hard (as he knocks his hand on the wicket). He adds that there will be some moisture in the wicket and that will aid the spinners as well as pace off deliveries of pacers. He feels that the batters should look to get used to the pace of the wicket before playing their shots.
!
Pakistan (Playing XI) - Fakhar Zaman, Saim Ayub, Mohammad Haris (WK), Salman Agha (C), Hasan Nawaz, Mohammad Nawaz, Khushdil Shah, Faheem Ashraf, Abbas Afridi, Salman Mirza (On T20I debut), Abrar Ahmed.
!
Bangladesh (Playing XI) - Litton Das (C/WK), Tanzid Hasan, Parvez Hossain Emon, Tawhid Hridoy, Jaker Ali, Shamim Hossain, Mahedi Hasan, Rishad Hossain, Taskin Ahmed, Mustafizur Rahman, Tanzim Hasan Sakib.
!
TOSS - Bangladesh have won the toss and they will BOWL first.
!
All eyes will be on how Bangladesh's newfound confidence, particularly their in-form batting unit and economical bowlers, stands up against a youthful yet determined Pakistani side aiming to continue their impressive head-to-head record. There's also a bit of rain around but let's hope that doesn't affect the contest much. Stay tuned for the toss and team news.
!
The pitch at the Shere Bangla National Stadium is typically on the slower side, offering assistance to spinners as the game progresses. While pacers might find some early seam movement, batters who settle in can play their strokes freely.
!
However, Pakistan will pose a formidable challenge despite some notable absentees. While key players like Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan are missing, a young Pakistan side, led by Salman Agha, will be eager to assert their dominance. Historically, Pakistan holds a significant edge in T20I encounters, having won 19 out of 22 matches against Bangladesh, including a commanding 3-0 clean sweep in their most recent series a month ago in Lahore. The visitors will be looking to replicate that performance and maintain their winning rhythm away from home.

BAN vs PAK 3rd T20I: Pakistan end losing streak with commanding win over Bangladesh

Faheem Ashraf got his three-for within the powerplay. (PIC - X) New Delhi: Pakistan's cricket team finally got a victory on the Bangladesh tour. The Pakistani team defeated the host Bangladesh by 74 runs in the third T20. With this victory, Pakistan avoided a hat-trick of defeats but could not save the series. What happened in the last two T20I matches? Bangladesh, which won the first two T20 matches, won the series 2-1. This tour of the Pakistani team to Bangladesh was very short. 3 matches were played out of 5 matches between the two teams. Bangladesh defeated Pakistan by 7 wickets in the first match and by 8 runs in the second match. How did Pakistan perform in the match? The third and final match of the three-match T20 series between Pakistan and Bangladesh was played in Dhaka on Thursday. Batting first in this match, Pakistan scored 178 runs for the loss of 7 wickets. Opener Sahibzada Farhan scored the highest 61 runs from their side. He hit 6 fours and 5 sixes in his 41-ball innings. Sahibzada was chosen as the Player of the Match for this performance. Sahibzada Farhan got good support from his partner, Hasan Nawaz. Hasan Nawaz played a beautiful innings of 33 runs in 17 balls. Mohammad Nawaz scored 27 runs in 16 balls. Saim Ayub contributed 21 runs and captain Salman Agha contributed 12 runs. Taskin Ahmed took the maximum number of three wickets for Bangladesh. How did Bangladesh batters perform? Bangladesh mostly has slow pitches, so the target of 179 runs was not going to be easy for the host team. Pakistani bowlers performed brilliantly and made this target even more difficult. Bangladesh batsmen failed miserably in this match. Mohammad Saifuddin was the only batsman who scored more than 10 runs. The rest of the batsmen scored 10 or less runs. As a result, the entire Bangladesh team was all out after scoring 104 runs in 16.4 overs.
