Yeh series ab tak ek tarfa raha hai, Pakistan ne Lahore ke Gaddafi Stadium mein pehle do T20I mein Bangladesh ko bilkul lapet diya. Ab teesra aur aakhri match 1 June 2025 ko hone wala hai, aur Pakistan poora dum laga raha hai clean sweep ke liye. Chalo, iske baare mein thodi detail mein baat karte hain, urban Hindi style mein!
Pakistan Ka Jalwa
Pakistan ke bande is series mein full-on dhoom macha rahe hain. Pehle T20I mein, 28 May ko, unhone 201/7 ka bada score khada kiya, captain Salman Ali Agha ne 56 run (34 ball) aur Shadab Khan ne 48 run (25 ball) thok ke bawal macha diya. Hasan Ali, jo ek saal baad wapas aaya, ne toh kamaal hi kar diya – 5 wickets (5/30) lekar Bangladesh ki batting ko dhulaai kar di. Unke knuckleball aur bouncer ke aage Bangladesh ke batsmen bilkul fuse ho gaye. Jaker Ali ne thodi fight dikhai (36 off 21), par 164 pe hi Bangladesh ki gaadi ruk gayi, 37 run se haar gaye.
Doosre T20I mein, 30 May ko, Pakistan ne phir 201/6 banaye. Sahibzada Farhan ne toh aag laga di – 74 run (41 ball, 6 chhakke!), aur Hasan Nawaz ne bhi unbeaten 51 thok diya. Bangladesh ka chase shuru toh jhakaas hua, Tanzid Hasan ne 33 run (15 ball) mein chhake-chowke lagaye, par Abrar Ahmed ke leg-spin (3/19) ne unki batting ki waat laga di. 56/5 pe girne ke baad Tanzim Hasan Sakib ne No. 9 pe aake maiden T20I fifty (50 off 31) maari, par phir bhi 144 pe all out. Pakistan ne 57 run se doosra match bhi jeb mein daal liya. Yeh unka teen saal baad ghar pe T20I series jeetna tha!
Pakistan ke bande har jagah chhaaye hue hain – batting, bowling, aur fielding mein bhi. Babar Azam, Rizwan, aur Shaheen nahi hain, phir bhi Farhan, Hasan Ali, aur Abrar jaise naye aur purane bande full form mein hain. Fielding mein bhi unhone circle ke andar runs roke aur pressure banaya. Haris Rauf aur Abrar ke spin-pace combo ne Bangladesh ko har baar hila diya. Ab new coach Mike Hesson ke under, Pakistan full josh mein hai teesra match bhi jeetne ke liye.
Bangladesh Ki Haalat
Bangladesh ke bande is series mein bilkul pichhde hue hain. Batting mein consistency nahi hai, openers jaise Tanzid Hasan aur Litton Das thodi si shuruaat dete hain, par middle order har baar flop. Pehle match mein Litton ne 48 (30) banaye, par Towhid Hridoy ne sust 77 strike rate se run banaye, jisse pressure badh gaya. Jaker Ali ne dono match mein thodi fight dikhai, par jaise Litton ne kaha, “ek banda akele match nahi jeeta sakta.”
Bowling mein bhi unki band baji hui hai. Pehle T20I mein 201 run diye, Hasan Mahmud, Tanzim, aur Shoriful jaise pacers death overs mein pit gaye. Doosre match mein toh Shoriful 3 ball daal ke hi groin injury ke wajah se bahar ho gaya, jisse unka poora plan bigad gaya. Spinners jaise Mahedi Hasan aur Rishad Hossain bhi mehenge sabit hue, khaas kar Farhan aur Shadab ke aage. Fielding mein bhi galtiyan hui, Litton ne khud kaha, “Humne fielding mein kami chhodi,” jabki Lahore ka pitch batting ke liye perfect hai.
Shoriful Ki Injury Aur Naye Changes
Shoriful ka groin injury Bangladesh ke liye bada jhatka hai. Woh ek solid left-arm pacer hai, jiske pehle match mein 50 T20I wickets poore hue the. Doosre match mein uske out hone ke baad Tanzim aur Hasan Mahmud pe zyada load aaya, par woh Pakistan ke batsmen ko nahi rok paye. X posts aur web reports ke hisaab se Shoriful teesre match mein nahi khelega.
Ab Bangladesh apni team mein badlav karega. Khaled Ahmed, jo Mustafizur Rahman (2025 IPL mein thumb injury) ki jagah aaya tha, ko chance mil sakta hai. Yeh right-arm pacer thodi fresh energy la sakta hai, par uska T20I experience kam hai. Ya phir Tanvir Islam, ek left-arm spinner, ko utara ja sakta hai, kyunki pitch pe spinners jaise Abrar ko thodi help mili hai. Mehidy Hasan Miraz, jo doosre T20I mein Soumya Sarkar (injured) ki jagah wapas aaya, ko bhi bada role mil sakta hai, shayad bowling all-rounder ke taur pe.
Batting mein bhi kuch reshuffle ho sakta hai. Towhid Hridoy aur Shamim Hossain pe slow khelne ka pressure hai, unhe apna game upar karna hoga. Parvez Hossain Emon, ek wicketkeeper-batter, ko top order mein chance mil sakta hai, par Litton shayad apni opening spot nahi chhodega. Probable XI kuch aisi ho sakti hai: Tanzid Hasan, Litton Das (c, wk), Parvez Hossain Emon/Najmul Hossain Shanto, Towhid Hridoy, Jaker Ali, Shamim Hossain, Mehidy Hasan Miraz, Rishad Hossain, Tanzim Hasan Sakib, Hasan Mahmud, aur Khaled Ahmed/Tanvir Islam.
Context Aur Stakes
Yeh series pehle 3 ODI aur 3 T20I ka plan tha, par Pakistan Super League aur security issues ke wajah se sirf 3 T20I hue. Sab match Gaddafi Stadium pe ho rahe hain, jiska pitch high-scoring hai, jisse Pakistan ke aggressive batting ko fayda hua. Bangladesh ne August 2024 mein Pakistan ke khilaaf Test series 2-0 se jeeti thi, par T20I mein unka record kharab hai – Pakistan ke khilaaf 19 mein sirf 3 jeet. Unki recent form bhi kharab hai, UAE se 2-1 se series haare the.
Pakistan ke liye clean sweep Mike Hesson ke new coaching stint ka shandaar start hoga, aur 2026 T20 World Cup ke liye confidence boost karega. Bangladesh ke liye 3-0 se haarna sharmnaak hoga, khaas kar Test jeet ke baad. Par Mustafizur, Soumya, aur Shoriful ke injuries ne unki team ko kamzor kar diya hai.
Teesre T20I Ka Scene
Pakistan is match ka bhi favorite hai, unka form aur home ground ka faida unke saath hai. Sahibzada Farhan aur Abrar Ahmed jaise bande khel badal sakte hain. Bangladesh ko agar whitewash se bachna hai toh middle order ko run banane honge aur bowling tight karni hogi. Shoriful ke na hone se pacers pe pressure hai, par Jaker Ali ya Tanzim jaise bande surprise kar sakte hain. Match high-scoring hoga, Pakistan apna aggressive style jari rakhega, aur Bangladesh ko ek bada performance chahiye.
