Masood, Rahim Clash at Tense Sylhet Test

Pakistan’s captain, Shan Masood, and Bangladesh’s batsman, Mushfiqur Rahim, had a heated exchange during the second Test match between Pakistan and Bangladesh in Sylhet. Videos of the incident were shared on social media platforms.

The altercation occurred while Rahim was batting cautiously in Bangladesh’s second innings. According to reports, Masood expressed frustration over the slow pace of play, leading to a verbal dispute with Rahim.

On-field umpires intervened in the argument and briefly halted play before calming both sides and resuming the match. Some social media users claimed that Bangladeshi batters were deliberately slowing down the game, though this was not officially confirmed by the teams involved.

Despite the incident, Bangladesh maintained a strong position in the match, extending their lead to 425 runs over Pakistan in the second Test.
