Pakistan batter, Mohammad Rizwan, continued his stellar form in Test cricket by scoring a magnificent 150 against Bangladesh, becoming the fifth Pakistani wicketkeeper to reach this milestone in Test matches.

With his impressive knock of 153 off 219 balls, Rizwan has joined an elite group of Pakistani wicketkeepers who have scored 150 or more in Test cricket. He now stands alongside legends like Imtiaz Ahmed, Taslim Arif, Rashid Latif, and Kamran Akmal.

Furthermore, Rizwan is also the first Pakistani wicketkeeper-batsman since 2009 to score 150 runs in a Test match.

Rizwan, who faced 219 deliveries to notch up his 153, has been the backbone of Pakistan’s innings. His knock has been pivotal in putting Bangladesh on the back foot, as he deftly navigated the bowlers and seized every scoring opportunity.

Pakistan’s solid position in this Test is largely due to Rizwan's efforts, and with 405 runs on the board and four wickets in hand, the team will be looking to pile on more runs to further dominate the contest.
