Shaheen Shah Afridi has returned to form in the previous game for Pakistan, picking up a couple of early wickets. It is the batting that still has glaring holes in the line-up.

Nilphamari nourishes indigo, not cricketers. The district, where once the British tortured labourers to cultivate ‘Neel’, or blue gold, lies only 356 kilometres north of Dhaka.
