Pakistan v Bangladesh 2nd Test: How to watch, TV channel, start time, head-to-head stats and team news

Bangladesh will be looking to wrap up a series triumph in the second Test in Rawalpindi after defeating Pakistan for the first time in Test history last week.

The Tigers completed a 10-wicket win in Rawalpindi after the hosts slumped to 146 in the second innings, leaving Bangladesh with a target of 30 which they achieved in comfortable fashion.

Pakistan have not won a Test match on home soil since February 2021, with four defeats and five draws since, and they will be desperate to end that barren spell by salvaging a draw in the two-match Test series.
