Bangladesh resumed on 236-4 but lost key man Shakib Al Hasan early. He added only six to his overnight 19 before he was caught by Asad Shafiq at leg slip off Zulfiqar Babar.
Captain Mushfiqur Rahim (32) and debutant Soumya Sarkar (33) put on 62 for the sixth wicket, but the final five wickets went down in only 8.4 overs, with leg-spinner Yasir Shah and seamer Wahab Riaz picking up two scalps apiece.

Pakistan's openers began their reply aggressively. The 50 partnership between Hafeez and Sami Aslam came from only 67 balls.
Aslam had reached 20 in his maiden Test innings when he was dismissed after Bangladesh called for a review, with the teenager gloving left-arm spinner Taijul Islam down the leg-side to keeper Mushfiqur.
The visitors were 84-1 at tea and pressed on in the evening session, with Hafeez bringing up his eighth Test century off 123 balls.
Hafeez hit 12 boundaries and two sixes in his innings, sharing an unbroken 177-run partnership with Azhar Ali (65).
Pakistan have lost all four games on the tour in the 50- and 20-over formats of the game.
