Bangladesh were bowled out for 272 on day two of the first Test against West Indies at the Sher-e-Bangla National Stadium in Mirpur, with Shadman Islam converting his overnight 99 into a century before the last seven wickets fell for just 59 runs.
Shadman needed only the second ball of the day to move from 99 to his century, before going on to make 105 and falling lbw to debutant quick Joshua Bishop a few overs later. His dismissal triggered a familiar slide for the Bangladesh middle and lower order, who could not build on the platform he had given them.
Jomel Warrican finished with 5 for 53, his fifth Test five-wicket haul, while Shamar Joseph took 2 for 41 and Bishop added 2 for 61 on debut. Bangladesh's innings folded from 213 for 3 overnight to 272 all out, with the last five wickets going down for just 19 runs. Litton Das, recalled after injury, was unbeaten on 34 but was struck on the elbow during the innings and unable to keep wicket once West Indies batted.
West Indies lost Brandon King for 15 early in their reply, but John Campbell steadied the innings with a 54 off 74 balls before being caught at first slip off Mehidy Hasan Miraz, ending a 61-run stand. Taijul Islam then struck twice in the same over, removing Kavem Hodge at silly point and Amir Jangoo off a mistimed sweep, swinging the momentum back toward the hosts.
Tagenarine Chanderpaul and Justin Greaves added an unbeaten 37 in the final 12 overs before bad light ended play early, with West Indies closing on 134 for 4 off 48 overs, 138 runs behind Bangladesh's first-innings total.
Bangladesh's bowlers, led by Taijul and Miraz, have clawed their way back into a match that looked to be slipping away during the morning collapse, but a deficit of 138 with six wickets in hand still leaves West Indies well placed to push for a first-innings lead of their own if Chanderpaul and Greaves can carry their overnight partnership into day three.
Jomel Warrican's five-wicket haul makes him the standout bowling pick from either side for the remainder of the Test, while Taijul Islam's double strike in one over keeps him the sharper value option from Bangladesh's attack. John Campbell's innings is worth tracking if he can turn starts into a bigger score as the match progresses.
