Dhaka: Pakistan were bowled out for 114 runs in the first One Day International against Bangladesh at the Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium on Wednesday, leaving the hosts with a modest target in the opening match of the three-match series.

After being asked to bat first, the Pakistan national cricket team struggled against Bangladesh’s disciplined bowling attack and lost wickets at regular intervals throughout the innings.

Bangladesh bowlers maintained pressure from the start, preventing Pakistan’s batters from building partnerships and restricting the visitors to a low total.

The match is part of a three-match ODI series between Pakistan and the Bangladesh national cricket team, with both sides looking to gain momentum in the series opener.

Bangladesh now require 115 runs to win the match and take a 1-0 lead in the series.

Cricket fans from both countries are closely following the contest as Bangladesh begin their chase in front of a home crowd in Dhaka.
