Benn to Mahmudullah, OUT, oh dear, Good innings, but it ended too soon

Mahmudullah c †Ramdin b Benn 53 (161m 100b 2x4 1x6) SR: 53.00
 

161 All Out !

What a great first innings, it looks like Bangladesh are going to be dominated again. It seemed like it was a difficult pitch to bat on, but the more experienced batsmen of West Indies did their job. Bangladesh on the other hand struggled to put up a decent score.

West Indies are back on the field now, Brathwaite and Johnson have started the 2nd innings.

WI 71/0 in 17 overs

81 - 2 : Lead of 300

22.5  Shafiul Islam to Edwards, OUT, oh, he's been beaten by the bounce!

A very pleasing wicket fl as the batsman hung his bat out to dry and gully

takes a sharp catch lunging forward.
