Bangladesh Clinch Historic T20I Series Win Over Pakistan

Despite the emotional backdrop, Bangladesh secured their first-ever T20I series win against Pakistan, claiming victories in the first two games by 7 wickets and 8 runs, respectively. Stellar performances came from Parvez Hossain Emon (56* off 39) and Jaker Ali (55 off 48), both earning Player of the Match awards.

However, the hosts couldn’t complete a clean sweep, falling to a 74-run defeat in the final game at Dhaka. Sahibzada Farhan anchored Pakistan’s innings with 63 off 41 balls, helping them post 178/7. Bangladesh’s batting collapsed under pressure, managing only 104 in 16.4 overs. Mohammad Saifuddin (35* off 34) was the lone bright spot in an otherwise disappointing chase.
