Bangladesh facing defeat against Pakistan

Pakistan are closing in on victory in the second Test match with Bangladesh after leaving their opponents chasing 550 in their second innings.

Bangladesh have been set an unlikely target of 550 to win the second Test match against Pakistan in Dhaka.

A 354-run margin separated the two teams at the end of the first innings, and Pakistan extended that further after a knock of 82 from Misbah-ul-Haq helped the tourists to 195-6.

The declaration left Bangladesh requiring 550 with six-and-a-half sessions still remaining, but Tamim Iqbal and Imrul Kayes looked to have given their team a positive start as they approached a fifty partnership.

However, shortly before the close of play, Yasir Shah dismissed Kayes for 16 as Bangladesh ended the third day on 63-1, still 487 runs adrift of their opponents.
