Dhaka: Match of day four of the second test between Pakistan and Bangladesh has been delayed due to the wet outfield today.

The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) said that rain triggered by a weakened cyclone washed out the third day of the second Test between Bangladesh and Pakistan in Dhaka on Monday.

Match officials called off play at the Sher-e-Bangla National Stadium at 2:00 pm, with no chance of the weather improving for the day.

Only 63.2 overs of play were possible over the first two days with Pakistan reaching 188-2 in their first innings, with skipper Babar Azam batting on 71 not out alongside Azhar Ali, 52 not out.

Taijul Islam picked both wickets to fall at Sher-e-Bangla National Stadium.

Pakistan leads the two-Test series 1-0 after winning the first Test in Chittagong by eight wickets.
