That's it! Pakistan beat Bangladesh by 90 runs. Shaheen Afridi picks 6/35 and finishes things in style. Sad that Pakistan cannot go further in this tournament. So, it is New Zealand who qualify for semi-finals on better Net Run-Rate. Â

OUT! Shadab Khan strikes! Mossadek Hossain holes out to Babar Azam near long-off. First wicket for Shadab Khan this! Pakistan in control of this contest. M Hossain c Babar Azam b Shadab Khan 16(21)
Bangladesh need 138 more runs to win from 78 balls. The required run-rate is over ten runs per over. And worst part is that they have just five wickets in hand.
OUT! That man Shaheen Afridi strikes again! He accounts for dangerous Shakib Al Hasan. That's end of the World Cup for Shakib. He is caught behind. Shakib c Sarfaraz b Shaheen Afridi 64(77)
OUT! Liton Das departs. Shaheen Afridi picks his second wicket. Slower ball does the trick again as Das hits the ball towards extra cover. Liton Das c Haris Sohail b Shaheen Afridi 32(40)
That's half-century up for Shakib Al Hasan. His seventh 50-plus score in this World Cup. 50 off 62 balls for the right-hander. What a World Cup he has had! And is bowing out on a high as well.
Shadab Khan into the attack and he gives away six runs. Bangladesh need 218 more runs to win from 28 overs and the asking rate has gone over seven runs per over now.
OUT! Wahab Riaz strikes in his third over. Mushfiqur Rahim is bowled! He gets inside edge and the ball goes on to hit the stumps. Mushfiqur was looking to run it down the third-man. M Rahim b Riaz 16(19)
The partnership between Shakib Al Hasan and Mushfiqur Rahim is now worth 25 off 26 balls. The required run-rate for Bangladesh is now close to seven run per over.
OUT! Shaheen Afridi strikes! Tamim Iqbal departs. The left-hander misses an a slow in-swinger and the ball goes between his bat and pad. Tamim b Shaheen Afridi 8(21)
Three bowlers used thus far by Pakistan. Shaheen Afridi was the latest introduction. Bangladesh need 269 more runs to win at a required run-rate of 6.72.
Shakib Al Hasan is the new batsman in for Bangladesh. He has been top-performer for Bangladesh and will be looking to add for another impressive performance in his bag.
OUT! Mohammad Amir strikes. Soumya Sarkar hits it straight to Fakhar Zaman at cover-point. Superb catch by Fakhar there. Soumya Sarkar c Fakhar Zaman b Amir 22(22)
Mohammad Amir is bowling good and will be gutted by the drop catch off his bowling. Meanwhile, Bangladesh eye positive start here. So far, looks good for them.
Soumya Sarkar gets a life as Haris drops him at first slip. And meanwhile, Pakistan are officially out of World Cup 2019. New Zealand qualify as the fourth team.
So, that is the end of Pakistan innings. The Green Shirts end with 315 on board. A good effort in the end but not that good to help them qualify for the semi-finals. Imad Wasim scored 43 off 26 balls to hand Pakistan a much-needed impetus.
Had New Zealand defeated England in the previous match they met, this Pakistan vs Bangladesh would have been mighty important. Englandâs victory meant that the hosts qualify for semis and make Pakistanâs road to last four mighty unrealistic. New Zealand, however, were benefited even from defeat. Pakistanâs chances to qualify needs a miracle. Pakistan vs Bangladesh Cricket Score 43rd ODI Match in ICC Cricket World Cup, 2019.
Pakistan needs to beat Bangladesh by over a margin of 300 runs to qualify for the last four. And in case, Bangladesh bat first, Pakistanâs chances of beating New Zealand on Net Run RateNet Run Rate will vanish and that moment they will be eliminated from the World Cup.
This could well be the last World Cup outing for players like Mashrafe Mortaza and Mohammad Hafeez. Meanwhile, this is the second World Cup meeting between the two sides. Interestingly, Bangladesh emerged victorious in the last World Cup meeting between these two in 1999.
