Pakistan won the toss and elected to field.
Nazimuddin (Ban) made his Test debut.
Bangladesh recalled 56-Test veteran and former captain Mohammad Ashraful to their side for the first Test in Chittagong; he had been dropped for the series against the West Indies earlier in the year. Nazimuddin, the captain of Chittagong Division, was selected to make his Test debut.[8]

Pakistan won the toss and decided to bowl. Their bowlers duly tore through Bangladesh’s batting lineup, bowling them out for 135 before the tea break on the first day. Debutant opener Nazimuddin was Bangladesh’s longest-lasting batsman, surviving for 78 balls before being dismissed by Umar Gul for 31. All-rounder Nasir Hossain, batting at number eight, top scored with 41. Only one other batsman scored more than 10 runs. Pakistan’s front-line bowlers shared the wickets: Abdur Rehman and Saeed Ajmal took three each; Gul and Aizaz Cheema took two.[9]

Pakistan ended the first day on 132 runs for the loss of no wickets, thanks to an opening stand between Mohammad Hafeez and Taufeeq Umar. It was the 21st consecutive Test in which Hafeez and Taufeeq had opened for Pakistan, a record for the team.[10] Taufeeq was dismissed the next morning, leg before wicket to Mahmudullah; Hafeez went on to score his fourth Test century, eventually falling for 143 runs. Pakistan continued to pile on the runs with another large partnership, a fifth-wicket stand of 259 runs between Younus Khan and Asad Shafiq over the Test’s second and third days. Shafiq scored his first Test century before being dismissed for 104; Younus scored his third Test double century. Pakistan captain Misbah-ul-Haq declared with Younus not out for 200 and Pakistan at 594/5.[11]

Bangladesh, needing 459 runs simply to force Pakistan to bat again, improved on their first innings total, but were dismissed for 275. Nazimuddin top-scored with 78, while Shakib Al Hasan also scored a half-century (51 off 69 balls). Rehman took four wickets, giving him seven for the match.[12] Pakistan thus won by an innings and 184 runs. Younus was named player of the match.[13]
