In a stunning display of cricketing prowess, the Bangladesh cricket team scripted a historic moment by achieving a clean sweep over Pakistan in a two Test series played away from home.

This remarkable achievement, led by Najmul Shanto's astute captaincy, showcased the team's growth, resilience, and unwavering determination.

Prior to this series, Bangladesh had never won a Test match against Pakistan.

Veterans Shakib Al Hasan and Mushfiqur Rahim played pivotal roles in the first Test while youngsters Nahid Rana, Hasan Mahmud, Mehidy Hasan, and Litton Das shone in the second.
Bangladesh's victory in the second Test was particularly remarkable as they fought back from a challenging position to secure a six wicket win.
