Opener Imam-ul-Haq made a run-a-ball century and Babar Azam scored 96 to help Pakistan to 315-9 against Bangladesh in their final group game, even though they are effectively out of the semifinals race.
Pakistan's abysmal net run rate meant the 1992 champions had no real chances of pipping New Zealand to the last semi-final slot, but Imam and Azam added 157 for the second wicket to lay the foundation for a big total.
Mohammad Saifuddin denied Azam a century when he trapped him lbw and Imam's innings ended in a hit-wicket dismissal when he retreated too much to break his own stump trying to flick Mustafizur Rahman.
Mustafizur (5-75) and Saifuddin (3-77) shared eight wickets between them.
 
Bangladesh have won the last four ODIs against Pakistan.
Pakistan havw a 31-5 overall record against Bangladesh in completed matches.
