In the third and final T20I at Gaddafi Stadium, Lahore, Pakistan completed the clean sweep against Bangladesh by comfortably chasing down the target of 197 in just 17.2 overs. Bangladesh chose to bat first and set a very competitive total of 196/6 from their 20 overs, but Pakistan chased that down with ridiculous ease, with Mohammad Haris scoring a stunning century.

Bangladesh Innings

Bangladesh started off strongly at the opening of the innings, with Parvez Hossain Emon opening the batting for Bangladesh, smashing a quickfire 66 from just 34 balls, with Tanzid Hasan adding a steady 42 from 32. Towhid Hridoy added a useful 25 (18) to help Bangladesh to a strong total. Abbas Afridi finished with the best figures for Pakistan, with 2/26, and Hasan Ali was also respectable with 2/38, and Shadab Khan chipped in with 1/26 in 3 overs.

Pakistan Innings

Pakistan's innings was in the reverse order, with Haris anchoring the chase superbly with an unbeaten 107 from 46 balls, with Saim Ayub (45 from 29) and Hassan Nawaz (26 from 13) all contributing, and Pakistan comfortably chased the total down with 16 balls to spare. Even though Bangladesh tried to fight back with Mehidy Hasan Miraz (2/26) and Tanzim Hasan Sakib (1/36), no one had any answers to the aggressive batting.

This emphatic victory by 7 wickets secured Pakistan a series final score of 3-0. Mohammad Haris's scintillating century was the star of the game and the series. Haris's aggressive stance smashed the Bangladesh bowling attack and confirmed his emerging brand of T20 for Pakistan. 

Pakistan's newfound victory not only secured the series but also exhibited the depth and firepower of their youth in preparation for future T20s.

PAK vs BAN Match Tips

Both teams are a little short on experience and home advantage could keep Pakistan favourites to start.

Match Prediction: Pakistan Will Win the Match

In the 2nd T20I at Gaddafi Stadium, Lahore, Pakistan won by 57 runs. Having won the toss, Pakistan batted first and put up a good total of 201/6 in their 20 overs, before bowling Bangladesh out for 144 in 19 overs, winning the match comfortably while taking an unassailable 2–0 lead in the series.

Pakistan Innings

Pakistan's top order did a good job to get Pakistan off to a good start in the opening phases of the innings. Sahibzada Farhan was the top scorer, with a swift 74 off 41 balls, backed up pretty well by Hassan Nawaz with an unbeaten 51 off 26 balls. And Mohammad Haris provided a quick-fire 41 runs from 25 balls to provide the momentum needed for Pakistan to get to a total of over 200.  With respect to bowling, Bangladesh's best bowlers included Tanzim Hasan Sakib (2/36 in 4 overs) and Hasan Mahmud (2/47 in 4 overs), who both fared reasonably but were unable to truly contain the barrage from Pakistan's batting. Rishad Hossain took a wicket but was expensive, with bowling figures of 1/50 in 4 overs.

Bangladesh Innings

Bangladesh was never able to really settle in their innings in chasing exactly 202, with only Tanzim Hasan Sakib able to cross fifty with a modest 50 off 31 balls, while Tanzid Hasan (33 off 19) and Mehidy Hasan Miraz (23 off 17) made an attempt to stabilize the innings. However, Pakistan’s bowling attack remained dominant throughout. Abrar Ahmed was the standout with 3/19 in 4 overs, well supported by Faheem Ashraf (1/8 in 2 overs) and Shadab Khan (1/13 in 2 overs). Their combined effort restricted Bangladesh to 144 in 19 overs, falling 57 runs short.

This convincing win handed Pakistan a 2-0 series lead, with one game left to play.

Pakistan Innings

Pakistan set a solid score of 201/7 in their 20 overs. Salman Ali Agha led the attack with a vibrant 56 from 34 balls, and Shadab Khan scored 48 runs from just 25 balls; both provided impetus to get Pakistan off to a good start. Hassan Nawaz also showed good intent, scoring 44 from 22 balls, and thus contributed significantly towards the task at hand. Among the Bangladeshi bowlers, Shoriful Islam was the best with 2-32 from 3 overs, while Tanzim Hasan Sakib also played his part with 1-22 from 2 overs, and Hasan Mahmud's 1-24 from 3 overs added to the mix.

Litton Das was the star for Bangladesh, scoring 48 from 30 balls, and showed signs of resistance.

Filling out a young team that is brimming with explosive batters and versatile bowlers under the tutelage of the well-established Litton Das, Bangladesh is two-pronged. Players like Towhid Hridoy and Shanto are expected to shape and anchor innings—especially since deep down the order there will be all-rounders such as Mahedi Hasan to fall back on. Their bowling corps may be young, but they have the potential to test the limits of the big hitters dominated by Pakistan.

Expect fireworks in Lahore as two exciting T20 outfits face off in what promises to be a thrilling start to the series.
