In the first warm match before the World Cup 2011, Pakistan registered a victory against Bangladesh by a huge margin of 89 rungs. Great start by Pakistan team. In batting Misbal ul Haq along with Ahmad Shahzad build a solid foundation by making centuries. Shahid Afridi and Omar Akmal added some runs to the total and Pakistan putt 285/9 on the board. Bangladesh lost their first wicket on 1, after that Junaid and Imrul build a partnership of 70. Abdul Razzaq got 3 wicket in his second spell and made difficult for Bangladesh to reach the target. Abdul Rehman and Muhammad Hafeez took 2 wickets each. Wahab Riaz and Afridi got 1 wicket each. Bangladesh could only make 196 runs in 41.4 over.
Pakistan got a good start and now its time to keep this spirit up.
There is one more thing to say to my visitors, that Pakistan is playing his 2 warm up matches in Bangladesh but most of matches of Pakistan will be in Sri-Lanka under different climate and conditions. That is a very big point. I think Pakistan team management should take some proper adjustment for the players to take full advantage of the conditions.
