Bangladesh clinched a thrilling series win against Pakistan in the 2nd T20I of the Dutch-Bangla Bank T20I Series 2025, held in Mirpur on July 22, 2025.
Following the seven-wicket victory in the first match, the Tigers secured back-to-back wins, sealing the three-match series with a heartfelt tribute to lives lost recently in a tragic Dhaka school plane crash.
