Tamim Iqbal becomes Bangladesh’s leading run-getter in one-Day Internationals (ODI) during the first ODI between Bangladesh and Pakistan at Dhaka. He has also scored his 29th ODI fifty in the process. Timim has overtaken his stand-in skipper Shakib-al-Hasan, who will get his chance to reclaim the top spot once he comes on to bat a little later.

Earlier Bangladesh had won the toss and elected to to bat first. Bangladesh are without their regular skipper Mashrafe Mortaza, who is serving a one-match ban for slow over-rate. Pakistan welcome back their star spinner Saeed Ajmal, who returns to the playing XI after a gap of seven months. He seems to have mended his action as he seems to be bowling with a more round arm action.
