Tanveer Ahmed claimed three-wickets while Shihab James smacked an undefeated 41 that guided Bangladesh Under-19 team to earn a five-wicket win against Pakistan in the first Youth T20 at the Multan Cricket Stadium on Wednesday.

Choosing to field, Bangladesh restricted Pakistan to 143-8 with Tanveer finishing as the highest wicket-taker for the touring side.

The right-arm pacer dismissed Pakistan opener Shawaiz Irfan alongside the top-order Tayyab Arif at the start to ring an eye-popping start for the side.

He kept putting pressure with the ruinous bowling effort that excluded Muhammad Zeeshan to be concluded with 3-25.

Pursuing a combative target, Bangladesh banked on Shihab's unbeaten 33-ball 41 and  Mahfuzur Rahman’s 38  off 25 balls to reach the target with three balls to spare.  

Following the victory the young Tigers took a 1-0 lead in the two-match series.

Earlier the visitors clinched the three-match one-day series after squaring the lone four-day tie in their tour.
