3rd September 2024 will go down in history as one of the happiest days for the Bangladesh Cricket Team. 

Najmul Hussain Shanto led Bangladesh has clean swept the two-match test series against Pakistan in Rawalpindi. 

The visitors won the 1st test by 10 wickets, thanks to Mushfiqur Rahim’s massive 191-run knock.

Shakib Al Hasan scored the winning runs as he struck Abrar Ahmed for a boundary, steering Bangladesh to clean sweep the series 2-0.

The Men in Green posted a mediocre total of 185 which the Bangladesh team chased quite comfortably. 

Skipper Najmul Hossain Shanto made a modest contribution to the chase with his 38 runs. Mominul supported the skipper with his 34-run knock. 

Bangladesh’s experienced batsmen Mushfiqur Rahim and Shakib Al Hasan then joined hands and helped their team cross the finish line.
