DHAKA: Host Bangladesh have resumed their batting in the second innings on the 4th day morning of the third and final test of Bashundhara Cement Test Series at Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium in Chittagong Saturday.
They have scored 56-run losing one wicket after 19-over. Tamim Iqbal and Mominul Haque are on the crease with 25 and 12-run respectively.
Panyangara took the wicket of Imrul Kayes who scored 15-run.
Earlier on Friday, hosts wrapped visiting Zimbabwe at 374 in the third day afternoon in their first innings.
The host began batting in the 2nd innings and played 9 overs before the umpires took the bails as the day ends.
In the 1st innings, Zimbabwe scored 374 all out. Raza, 82, Masakadza, 81, Chakbva, 65, and Chigumbura, 88, each made significant contributions.
Wicket-keeper batsman Chakabva made a firm stand with Chigumbura at the other end before tea.
Young leggie Jubair Hosain claimed five wickets while ace all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan and Taijul Islam took the wickets of two tail enders.
Shafiul Islam claimed Chakabva’s wicket breaking a resilient from the visitors and took the credit of removing danger man Hamilton Masakadza.
Masakadza and Raza built a 169-run partnership after the visitors began the day three at 113/1 Friday morning.
In the 1st innings, Bangladesh, seemingly gave a roaring onslaught with a great opening stand to score 503 runs all out on the second day of the Test.
Openers Tamim Iqbal and Imrul Kayes hit tons scoring 109 off 171 balls and 130 off 257 balls before leaving the pitch. Shakib contributed 71 runs off 110 to the scoreboard until he got caught by Ervine bowled by Raza.
Mominul Haque and Rubel Hossain both narrowly missed to hit the half century scoring 48 off 100 balls and 45 off 44 balls not out respectively.
Bangladesh skippers Mushfiqur Rahim, however, contributed less. He scored 15 and was the victim of a straightly bowled out of visiting danger man Masakadza.
