Pakistan vs Bangladesh (PAK vs BAN) 2nd ODI Live Cricket Score Updates: Just like in the first ODI, Bangladesh have asked Pakistan to bat first in the second ODI at Shere Bangla National Stadium in Mirpur. While Bangladesh are unchanged, Pakistan have brought back Haris Rauf in the side after losing the first game by eight wickets earlier this week.
Pakistan’s defeat in the first ODI had earned them copious brickbats back home in what was an extension of the fury directed at the team for crashing out in the Super 8 stage at the T20 World Cup.

Bangladesh are looking to wrap up the ODI series with another win today, while Pakistan will want to show that they are made of sterner stuff than it came across in the first game where they were bowled out for 114, their lowest total batting first against Bangladesh. With the ODI World Cup coming up, Pakistan are trying to find players who can shore up their side and had fielded four debutant batters (Sahibzada Farhan, Maaz Sadaqat, Shamyl Hussain and Abdul Samad) in the first ODI.

Bangladesh beat Pakistan by eight wickets in the first ODI, bowling out the visitors for 114 in 30.4 overs before chasing the target in just 15 overs.
Basit Ali did not spare the team management. “First, shoot the man who told them to score a minimum of 60 runs in the ten powerplay overs,” he said. “He never played cricket on a ground. He just hands over a piece of paper. Did he not see what conditions are like here? Did he not know that even India have lost in Bangladesh?”
Former Pakistan wicketkeeper Kamran Akmal said he was left embarrassed by the performance. “It felt like one team was international and the other was a club side playing a practice match before a World Cup,” he said. “I called Basit and couldn’t find words to describe what kind of cricket we were playing.”
He did not stop there. “I swear to God, batting like this doesn’t even happen in club cricket. Club cricketers don’t play this badly.”
