Masood: Story has been same as Australia, we haven't learnt our lessons

Pakistan captain Shan Masood was disappointed as his side suffered a crushing Test series loss for the first against Bangladesh in Rawalpindi.
In the first Test, Pakistan's decision to declare their first innings at 448/6 backfired completely as Bangladesh scored a mammoth 565 and then produced a brilliant bowling performance to win the game by 10 wickets.
Things did not improve in the second Test as well as Bangladesh once again excelled with both bat and ball to clinch the match by six wickets.
Following the match, Masood said that Pakistan have not learnt their lessons from the past losses and added that they have continuously failed to get over the line in Test matches.
“Extremely disappointed, we were excited for the home season. The story has been the same as Australia, we have not learnt our lessons," Shan Masood said after the match.
"We thought we were playing good cricket in Australia but not doing the job, that's something we need to work on. It has happened four times in my tenure that we have left the team back into the contest when we were dominating,"
"274 was a good score in the first innings, me and Saim [Ayub] could have got more runs like Litton. But we should have done better from having them at 26/6. That's something we need to work on and work on quickly," he added.
