Bangladesh lose three wickets before stumps on day two

MIRPUR: Bangladesh lost three wickets before stumps on Tuesday, after South Africa’s first innings ended with a total of 308 earlier in the day.

Kagiso Rabada continued to impress after reaching the historic milestone of 300 test wickets in record time on Monday. The South African fast bowler took two wickets in just the third over of Bangladesh’s second innings.

Shadman Islam fell first on the seventh ball he faced. The delivery by Rabada clipped an inside edge, and a quick reaction by Tony de Zorzi ended the Bangladesh openers innings for only one run.

Mominul Haque was dismissed a few balls later, as the delivery made contact with the shoulder of Haque’s bat before floating off to Wiaan Mulder at slip.  

Keshav Maharaj got a wicket of his own, dismissing Bangladesh skipper Najmul Hossain Shanto in the 19th over. The captain only managed to make 23 runs before being sent off on the 49th ball he faced. Maharaj’s delivery hit Shanto’s front leg as his attempt to defend failed. It was a clear lbw that the captain didn’t bother reviewing.

Bangladesh currently stand at 101 runs, and trail by the same amount. Three of their wickets have fallen.
