Abu Naser Stadium in Khulna today on November 22.
The first day had seen the visitors getting off to a promising start, with pace spearhead http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Shahriar-Nafees-c2486 (26) had been the
only batsmen who managed to make substantial contributions early during the innings, while http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Shakib-Al-Hasan-c89559 (17) had been unremarkable.
Wicketkeeper skipper http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Mohammad-Nasir-Hossain-c77146 (52) attempted to get their team’s innings back on track with an 87-run partnership for the second wicket, but only succeeded in getting the team total up to 185, and by the time Sohag Gazi was
trapped lbw by Edwards on duck, Bangladesh were at 193 for 8.
However, centurion http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Hasan-c61990 (113) and Mahmudlullah (76) swelling to 184 for the 9th
wicket, after which the latter was caught and bowled by Sammy (23-4-74-3), while the former was dislodged by Edwards (18.1-2-90-6). The Tigers eventually found themselves all out, with a solid first innings total of 387 under their belt.
While their bowling performance had remained superb, the West Indies were unable to carry the same sort of spirit into their batting performance. Chris Gayle (25) and http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Kieran-Omar-Akeem-Powell-c71441 (13) stepped up to open the first innings for their side, but were unable
to apply themselves at the crease successfully. The opening partnership had just reached 37 runs when Powell found himself sent packing by http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Rubel-Hossain-c2378, followed swiftly by Gayle’s dismissal at the hands of Sohag Gazi.
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Marlon-Nathaniel-Samuels-c74804 (12*) were the next pair to step up to the crease, and managed to get the West Indies up to 62 for 2 by lunch on day two.
