Pakistan were comfortably placed at 109/0 at stumps on Day 4 on Monday and needed just 93 more runs to win with the final day to go and take a 1-0 lead in the series. Both the openers made half-centuries for the second time in the game as they put Pakistan in firm control in the first Test.
Earlier, despite Liton Das' fighting half-century in the second innings, Bangladesh were all out for just 157 runs in their second innings. Mushfiqur Rahim was trapped in front by Hasan Ali in the first over of the day. But Liton and Yasir Ali did well, scoring regular boundaries. Both tried hard to make runs but the fine bowling from Shaheen Afridi and Hasan Ali and Sajid Khan restricted Bangladesh batsmen from opening their hands.
