Misbah-ul-Haq chose to bat in the second ODI in Mirpur, as Pakistan aimed the seal the three-match series against Bangladesh with a game to spare.

Both teams made changes to the XIs that contested the first match. Pakistan replaced fast bowler Aizaz Cheema with Sohail Tanvir. Bangladesh dropped Naeem Islam and Farhad Reza and brought in batsman Imrul Kayes and allrounder Elias Sunny, who is making his ODI debut.

The pitch for the second ODI was not the same as the one the first game was played on. That surface had plenty of bounce and turn for the spinners.

Bangladesh: 1 Tamim Iqbal, 2 Shahriar Nafees, 3 Imrul Kayes, 4 Mushfiqur Rahim (capt & wk), 5 Shakib Al Hasan, 6 Nasir Hossain, 7 Mahmudullah, 8 Elias Sunny, 9 Abdur Razzak, 10 Rubel Hossain, 11 Shafiul Islam.

Pakistan: 1 Mohammad Hafeez, 2 Imran Farhat, 3 Younis Khan, 4 Misbah-ul-Haq (capt), 5 Shoaib Malik, 6 Umar Akmal, 7 Sarfraz Ahmed (wk), 8 Shahid Afridi, 9 Sohail Tanvir, 10 Umar Gul, 11 Saeed Ajmal.
