Bangladesh's Shoriful Islam, center, celebrates with teammates after taking the wicket of Pakistan's Saim Ayub during the fourth day of first cricket test match between Pakistan and Bangladesh, in Rawalpindi, Pakistan.
Day after Bangladesh opener Shadman Islam missed his century by seven runs, veteran batter Mushfiqur Rahim also missed his double ton by nine runs. His fantastic innings aided by half-centuries from four other batters, helped Bangladesh take 117-run lead in the first innings. At the close of play on Day 4, Pakistan had lost Saim Ayub and scored 23 runs. The match seems to be headed towards a draw unless Bangladesh bowlers do exceptionally well on the final day.
