END OF OVER:
160 | 5 Runs | WI: 484/7

  • Kemar Roach2 (4b)
  • Shivnarine Chanderpaul85 (226b)
  • Shuvagata Hom37-6-104-1
  • Taijul Islam47-9-135-5

So, Chanderpaul doesn't get to his century. But he and the rest of the batsmen looked a lot more lively this morning. However, they did not channel it properly, slogging out against the wrong balls. Taijul reaped deserved rewards to become the sixth Bangladesh bowler to get a five-for on debut

TC: "Can the good folks at Cricinfo tell me how many unbeaten fifties Shiv has in tests? Seems like he always scores them!" Its the 35th time - out of 94 fifty plus scores - that he has remained not out

Anurag: "A brave, very brave decision this from Ramdin. Not many captains, would have done that. It's the right decision, you've got to get as many overs in and put the weather into consideration too. Harsh on Chanders though! Well played."

Shuvagata Hom to Roach, 1 run, long-oooon... has dropped it. Saw the ball being given a bit of air and went for a belt. Didn't time it at all, seemed to come from the bottom of the bat. Mahmudullah rushes in, dives forward but shells it. And with that it seems Ramdin has had enough. Declaration in

Taijul Islam to Taylor, OUT, that's his fifth, on debut! Not the best ball though as Taylor rushed down the track to take it on the full. This time his power fails him. Tonks it down long-on's throat

Taijul Islam to Taylor, no run, good length ball, with a bit more bounce. Taylor stays back to defend with soft hands

Taijul Islam to Taylor, no run, this was pushed through flatter and quicker outside off, Taylor rocks back to cut but misses out

Taijul Islam to Taylor, FOUR, another opportunity to tee off as Taijul lobs up a full toss on leg stump, creamed into the midwicket boundary. No need for technique there, just hit the ball as hard as you can. And so he did

Taijul Islam to Chanderpaul, 1 run, leans forward to off stump and drives calmly to long-on
