Prior to this series, Bangladesh had never won a Test match against Pakistan.

Veterans Shakib Al Hasan and Mushfiqur Rahim played pivotal roles in the first Test while youngsters Nahid Rana, Hasan Mahmud, Mehidy Hasan, and Litton Das shone in the second.
Bangladesh's victory in the second Test was particularly remarkable as they fought back from a challenging position to secure a six wicket win.
