Despite half-centuries from Shan Masood, Saim Ayub and Salman Ali Agha, and four dropped catches of varying difficulty, Pakistan were bowled out for 274 on the second day of the second Test in Rawalpindi.
For Bangladesh, Mehidy Hasan Miraz caused the most damage, finishing with figures of 5 for 61.
The Bangladesh openers, Shadman Islam and Zakir Hasan, had two overs to face before stumps.
Mir Hamza got Shadman to edge the first ball of the innings to fifth slip but Saud Shakeel grassed the chance, letting Bangladesh go back unscathed.
That Pakistan are without Shaheen Shah Afridi and Naseem Shah makes their position even more precarious.
With Naseem “rested”, Pakistan’s four frontline bowlers for this match have played a combined experience of 16 Tests.
