Talking about Bangladesh's tour so far, Pakistan won the recently-concluded T20I series against the guests 2-0.
Babar played a swashbuckling knock of 66 not out off 44 balls in the 2nd T20I against Bangladesh to help Pakistan win the match by 9 wickets.
Apart from opener batsman Tamim Iqbal, who scored 65 off 53 balls, none of the Bangladeshi batsmen could remain at the crease for long. And those who remained for a while failed to capitalise the momentum passed by Tamim.
Man of the Match Babar along with Mohammad Hafeez, who scored 67 not out, added 131 runs for the second wicket to take Pakistan home with 20 balls to spare.
Wickets fell in regular intervals for Bangladesh and they never really got going. As a result, they could only manage a below-par score on the board.
Shoaib helped Pakistan chase down a target of 142 runs with three balls to spare and became the Man of the Match.
On Wednesday evening, Rahman took to Twitter to post a selfie along with his teammates before the team's departure and asked his followers to pray for them.
Mushfiqur was unlucky as he fell one short of what could have been his seventh ODI century but did enough to rescue Bangladesh.
Pakistan team have made only one change in their team for today’s match. Fast bowler Junaid Khan comes in for Mohammad Amir.
