Dhaka: Pakistan were bowled out for 114 in the opening One Day International at the Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium as hosts Bangladesh national cricket team chased the target comfortably to win by 8 wickets, taking a 1–0 lead in the three-match series.

Asked to bat first, the Pakistan national cricket team collapsed against a disciplined Bangladesh attack, losing regular wickets and failing to build meaningful partnerships. Bangladesh pacer Nahid Rana starred with a five-wicket haul that ripped through the Pakistan lineup and set the tone for the match.
