Bangladesh were all out for 157 runs in their second innings against Pakistan in the first Test of the two-match series at Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium on Monday. 
 
The Tigers resumed play on day four with an overnight score of 39-4, Mushfiqur Rahim scored a boundary in the first ball of the day but he was bowled by Shaheen Shah Afridi after one ball.
 
Yasir Rabbi, and Liton Kumar Das formed a partnership of 47 runs but it ended unfortunately as Yasir was hit on his head while he was trying to duck a bouncer from Shaheen.
 
He left the ground after playing four more balls and was replaced by Nurul Hasan as a concussion substitute.
 
Nurul managed to add 15 more with Yasir's 36*, but his moment of brain-fade after the lunch brought the collapse for Bangladesh.
 
He went for a six against Sajid khan, ended up getting caught at long-on by Faheem Ashraf.
 
Soon Liton followed him after completing his half-century, Liton was out LBW after scoring 59 runs.
 
Tail-enders also could not produce some resistance against Pakistan's bowling attack and from 153-6, Bangladesh were all out for 157, they added only four runs in last four wickets. 
 
Bangladesh now sets a target of 201 runs in the second innings for Pakistan, they have almost half a day left today and the entire fifth day to chase this down.
