Bangladesh skipper Najmul Hasan Shanto on Sunday described his team’s first-ever Test win over Pakistan as a “special one” in the given circumstances the country is going through. “It was a very important win for us because last month we had a difficult situation in Bangladesh. There are still some problems there, but in Bangladesh, we support each other and I am happy this win gives a little bit of a smile on their faces,” he said at the post-match conference after the 10-wicket win.
