WATCH: Pakan’s Salman Ali Agha irate after getting run out in controversial manner vs Bangladesh | Cricket News
2 min readUpdated: Mar 13, 2026 05:21 PM Controversy erupted during the second ODI match between Pakan and Bangladesh when the Men in Green’s Salman Ali Agha was run out Mehidy Hasan Miraz. The incident, which will no doubt bring up the old debate over spirit of cricket, happened during the 39th over.
Miraz was bowling to Mohammad Rizwan who played the ball back towards the right of the bowler which Miraz stopped with his boot. Meanwhile, Agha, who was on the non striker’s end, was out of his crease and in Miraz’s way with both players in close proximity. Agha then bento down to pick the ball and hand it back to the bowler but Miraz swooped in himself and in an under-armed throw knocked the bails off with Agha still outside the crease.

The decision was sent upstairs and the third umpire ruled it as a dismissal much to the chagrin of Agha who had a few words with Miraz and then left the field clearly unhappy. The irate Pakan batter then mumbled to himself while leaving the field and threw his helmet and gloves over the ropes before walking out of the field of play.

Earlier, Bangladesh captain Miraz won the toss Friday and elected to field against Pakan in the second one-day cricket international.
Bangladesh leads the three-match after fast bowler Nahid Rana skittled Pakan for 114 with a career-best figures of 5-24 in a resounding eight-wicket win on Wednesday.
While Bangladesh retained the same playing XI, Pakan made one change.
Pakan gave another chance to its inexperienced batters despite Sahibzada Farhan, Shamyl Hussain, Maaz Sadaqat and Abdul Samad, who were all on ODI debut in the first game, struggling to cope with the pace of Rana and off-spin of Mehidy.
Pakan recalled fast bowler Haris Rauf in place of leg-spinner Abrar Ahmed in a hope the wicket will suit the fast bowlers more.
