Pakistan 227 for 1 (Hafeez 137*, Azhar 65*) trail Bangladesh 332 (Mominul 80, Imrul 51, Wahab 3-55, Yasir 3-86) by 105 runsScorecard and ball-by-ball detailsComing into the Test series, Mohammad Hafeez had only scored 34 runs in four innings on the tour. He had only bowled in two of those innings after his action had been cleared by the ICC, but had gone wicketless. On the second day in Khulna, however, Hafeez was at the centerstage of a revival not only his own, but of Pakistan.Hafeez had found drift and good control with his newly-remodelled action to pick up a wicket on the first day. On the second day, however, his dismissal of a fluent Soumya Sarkar triggered a Bangladesh collapse that saw the home side lose their last five wickets for 27 runs to be bowled out 20 minutes into the second session. Hafeez, introduced after 19 overs, induced a false shot in his second, breaking a 62-run partnership between Sarkar and Mushfiqur Rahim that had helped the home side ease past the 300-run mark. The rest succumbed in no time and Bangladesh were stalled to an underwhelming 332.Hafeezs other telling contribution, however, was to come later. Making most of the excellent batting conditions, Hafeez led Pakistans response with his eighth Test century. He may have had a tough last few months, but Hafeezs Test form picked up from where he had left it. With his third century in three Tests, he joined an illustrious group - Zaheer Abbas, Mudassar Nazar, Shoaib Mohammad, Mohammad Yousuf (twice) and Younis Khan - of Pakistan batsmen.Throughout his innings, Hafeez profited off anything bowled short of length. He greeted Mohammad Shahid, the right-arm seamer, to Test cricket with a back-foot punch through cover in the bowlers first over and picked up boundaries off the spinners in a similar manner. If there was a lesson to be learnt from the initial part of Hafeezs innings, it was to avoid bowling on his pads.Bangladeshs bowlers, however, regularly fed Hafeez with what he wanted. All Hafeez had to do was to sit back in the crease and work it around to the leg side. Nine of Hafeezs 12 fours were hit in the region between midwicket and backward square leg. His two sixes, both of Shakib, were pulled over midwicket as well. Surprisingly, only towards the end did Bangladesh think of providing cover in the deep.The other feature of Hafeezs innings was his rotation of strike. After reaching his fifty with a six, Hafeez only once hit a four before he got into the nineties, and yet maintained a healthy strike rate. However, it took him only two balls to jump from 93 to his century as he whipped consecutive boundaries off Rubel Hossain.Hafeezs effortless innings allowed his partners to bat comfortably around him. The new opening pair - Pakistans sixth in last six Tests - of Hafeez and 19-year-old Sami Aslam made smooth progress to bring up the half-century of the partnership in the 12th over. Aslam was dismissed soon after for a 36-ball 20, a review urged by Bangladesh showing he had gloved a turning delivery from Taijul Islam to be caught by Mushfiqur down the leg side.Azhar survived a couple of scares - he was twice dropped by Mushfiqur, the second chance off Shahid injuring the wicketkeepers right hand and forcing him to leave the field - and was unbeaten on 65 after a 177-run unbeaten association with Hafeez. By the end of the day, Pakistan were trailing by 105 runs with nine wickets in hand. The Bangladesh batsmen were guilty of throwing their wickets away. Sarkar, who had scored 33 off 55 balls, top-edged an intended hit down the ground off Hafeez towards cover. Asad Shafiq ran in from cover and completed a diving catch at wide mid-off. Eight balls later, Mushfiqur lobbed an easy catch to cover on 32 as he pushed at a short and turning delivery from Yasir Shah. Yasir added the wicket of Taijul in his next over to make it four wickets in the first session for Pakistan, before Wahab cleaned up the tail immediately after lunch.Pakistan had made a perfect start to the day. Zulfiqar Babar got rid of Shakib in the fourth over of the morning. The batsman charged down the pitch to a flighted delivery but only managed a fine inside edge which was smartly snapped up by a diving Shafiq at leg-slip. Shakib had added only six runs to his overnight score of 19.The only time Pakistan were made to wait in the day was during the Mushfiqur-Sarkar stand. While Mushfiqur soaked up pressure, Sarkar added urgency. Playing his first Test innings, Sarkar showed over-eagerness at the start; his first shot was an aerial drive that landed short of mid-off and he was lucky that that a mistimed slog off Zulfiqar beat the mid-on fielder. But once his nerves settled, Sarkar had no trouble rotating the strike.Using his reach, Sarkar laced an elegant cover drive off Zulfiqar to hit his first Test boundary off his 34th delivery. He went on to hit three more fours through the same area. Zulfiqar leaked runs towards the end of his spell, with the second boundary in his ninth over bringing the 50 of the partnership between Mushfiqur and Sarkar. However, once Hafeez ended the stand, there was no looking back for PakistanRyan Franklin Mariners Jersey .
