Tri-Series: Pakistan have an easy victory over Bangladesh
Jun 09
ESPN: Pakistan eased to a 70-run victory over Bangladesh in a rain-affected opening match of the tri-series on Sunday.
Mohammad Ashraful won a good toss for Bangladesh, but his bowlers failed to exploit damp conditions, with Salman Butt and Mohammad Yousuf both cracking half-centuries as Pakistan were bowled out for 233 in 39.3 overs.
With play reduced to 40 overs a side, Bangladesh needed to score at nearly six an over but never came close, only Ashraful (56 not out) making a meaningful contribution in his side’s 163 for eight.
Next up is a big one, India vs Pakistan on 10th June, 2:30 p.m. onwards on Neo Cricket. Don’t miss it. (Trination Series complete schedule)
