Both Tamim and Imrul delighted in batting here and it was an extreme wicket to bowl on. Our bowlers battled rocking the bowling alley in such a moderate track, yet paying little heed to any pitch, you need to have dish with order. We most likely need to enhance our execution particularly with the ball."

Left-arm rewriter Zulfiqar Babar split the Tamim-Kayes take a position, in the 76th over, but had given away 132 operates in 32 overs. His rotate associate Yasir Shah carried an economic system of 4.10 after 30 overs. So Misbah ul Haq went to his part-time bowlers Asad Shafiq, who stated a first Analyze wicket, and Azhar Ali.

"On a monitor like that they [bowlers] really tried difficult," Misbah said. "They designed possibilities but fortune was not on our aspect. It happens in Analyze cricket. The wicket kept enjoying better and better with every day that approved. We were anticipating that it may decline but it stayed even throughout."
