Pakistan captain Shan Masood has come under the scanner after Bangladesh took a sizeable lead over the hosts in the first innings of the ongoing first Test at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium.
Mohammad Rizwan and Saud Shakeel slammed centuries for Pakistan in the first innings, with the hosts looking in control of the proceedings.
However, Shan made a rash declaration when Pakistan were 448/6 on Day 2, leaving Rizwan stranded on 171 not out. While the decision made a lot of sense after the opening day was cut short due to rain, Shan's call seemed to have backfired with the visitors taking a 117-run first innings lead.
Mushfiqur Rahim led Bangladesh's charge with a brilliant 191 after Shadman Islam had given the visitors a strong foundation with his 93.
