ISLAMABAD: Pakistan whitewashed Bangladesh 2-0 in the Test series Wednesday, breathing life into a rain-hit Test match that was otherwise, headed for a certain draw.<\/p>\n

After Bangladesh’s hapless first innings performance when they were skittled out for 87, Pakistan enforced the follow-on against the hosts.<\/p>\n

Sajid Khan rose to the challenge again, finishing with figures of 4\/86, following up on his impressive first innings figures of 8\/42.<\/p>\n

Babar told us to ‘go for the win’: Sajid<\/p>\n

Speaking after the day ended on Tuesday, Sajid Khan said skipper Babar Azam “told every one of us to go in for the win. Everyone did that. We attacked them and got rewarded”.<\/p>\n

“In the first match, the ball wasn’t turning like this. Even when the ball turned there, the batsmen got time to cope with it,” he added.<\/p>\n

“The plan is to get these three wickets, send them to bat again and then bowl them out again.”<\/p>\n

When play resumed on Day 4 Tuesday, Pakistan lost two early wickets in when Azhar Ali and captain Babar Azam departed for the pavilion within a short span of time.<\/p>\n

However, Mohammad Rizwan and Fawad Alam rose to the occasion and scored half-centuries to ensure the visitors stretched the total to 300 before Babar Azam declared the innings.<\/p>\n

If Pakistan pull off a victory today, the Men in Green will whitewash the hosts 2-0.<\/p>\n

Pakistan lead the two-Test series 1-0 after an eight-wicket win in Chittagong.<\/p>\n
