Following the break, Bangladesh suffered the loss of the crucial wicket of Mushfiqur Rahim, while Ebadot Hossain gifted his wicket away soon after.

OUT! Bowled. Taijul Islam to Hasan Ali. Stock length ball, outside off stump down the track Slog, missed. Pakistan's innings comes to an end at 386, trailing by 27 runs. After a steady passage in the post-tea session, the visitors failed to stitch together any meaningful partnerships, with wickets falling at regular intervals and the momentum slipping away quickly. Just when Pakistan looked to rebuild, the home side kept striking consistently to ensure they never settled at the crease. The hosts were outstanding with the ball in the final session, maintaining disciplined lines and applying relentless pressure to dismantle the batting lineup with ease. Mehidy Hasan Miraz was the standout performer, leading the charge brilliantly with a superb five-wicket haul that put his side firmly in control. Stay tuned as we bring you the post-innings updates shortly.

They need to take early wickets with the new ball, apply relentless pressure, and keep Bangladesh's scoring in check before the game slips away. Join us for Day 4.
