Summarised from 2 outlets · Updated 29 Oct, 13:46 · Archive
West Indies left-armer Jomel Warrican took five wickets as Bangladesh collapsed to 272 on day two in Dhaka.
West Indies spinners Jomel Warrican and Joshua Bishop caused a dramatic Bangladesh batting collapse on day two of the opening Test in Dhaka. Bangladesh, resuming at 3-231, lost seven wickets for 59 runs in the morning session to be dismissed for 272. Warrican claimed 5-53 and Bishop took 2-61 on debut. Shadman Islam, unbeaten on 99 overnight, reached his third Test century off 221 balls before being dismissed by Bishop.
The West Indies then made a promising start with opener John Campbell striking 54 off 61 balls. Campbell raised his sixth Test half-century by smashing Mehidy Hasan for six over long on, with the visitors at 1-89 and in control.
Bangladesh's spinners Taijul Islam and Mehidy Hasan hit back after rain and bad light caused a one-hour delay. Mehidy struck immediately after the resumption with Campbell's wicket, and Taijul removed Kavem Hodge and Aamir Jangoo in the same over. The West Indies reached 4-134 in 48 overs before play ended early. Tagenarine Chanderpaul remained unbeaten on 43 with Justin Greaves.
