Rizwan and Litton Das spar during Pakistan chase in Sylhet Test

Tensions flared on the field during the fourth day of the second Test between Bangladesh and Pakistan in Sylhet, with a heated verbal exchange between Pakistan's Mohammad Rizwan and Bangladesh's Litton Das becoming a focal point of the session. The incident occurred during the 72nd over of Pakistan's chase of a formidable 437-run target.

The confrontation began when Rizwan, batting at the time, complained to the umpire about movement near the sight screen just as bowler Taijul Islam was about to deliver. Litton Das, the Bangladesh wicketkeeper, intervened, asking Rizwan what he was doing. According to audio captured by the stump microphone, Rizwan responded by pointing and saying, "Look, look, he's standing there." Das retorted, "Why are you looking over there? Focus on your batting here."

Rizwan then questioned whose responsibility it was to address such distractions, asking, "Is that your job, mine, or the umpires?" The exchange escalated further when Das remarked, "You've scored a fifty, and now the acting has started," a comment made after Rizwan had passed his half-century. On-field umpires, including Allahudien Paleker, stepped in to calm both players and allow play to resume.
