Pakistan hammer sorry Bangladesh

FIRST ONE-DAY INTERNATIONAL, LAHORE
Pakistan v Bangladesh

Mohammad Yousuf
Mohammad Yousuf was in blistering form

Sohail Tanvir and Shahid Afridi took three wickets apiece as Pakistan crushed Bangladesh by 152 runs in the first one-day international.

Pakistan rattled up 322-5, with Mohammad Yousuf hitting 108 from 103 balls - his 15th one-day century.

Bangladesh's target was reduced to 282 from 39 overs after power failures twice interrupted the day-night match.

But they were bowled for just 129 runs in 29.5 overs as left-armer Tanvir took three wickets in his opening spell.

Bangladesh never recovered from their early slide and they lost wickets regularly.

Tail-ender Mashrafe Mortaza top-scored with 25 as Tanvir claimed 3-29 and Afridi 3-41.
