The only highlight for Bangladesh in this match was the stand between Shakib and Rahim. Their top order failed before that and the lower order never clicked. The Bangladeshi seamer tried their best but didn't have many runs to play with. Apart from that, there was not much positive for Bangladesh.

A comfortable win in the end. Pakistan took time but a win was never in doubt. However, the win was set up mainly by their bowlers. Their pace attack was in full-flow. Haris Rauf took four wickets, Naseem Shah ended with three and Faheem Ashraf took the main wicket of Shakib. Pakistan needed a good start in the chase, they did lose Fakhar Zaman and Azam but it was the stand between Imam and Mohammad Rizwan that helped them chase it down.
