Anon06: "Chase, Hetmyer, Dowrich will be key for WI. They can play spin and bat aggressively. I expect the top to fold quickly but if we can get to 75/3, it will be game on."

Morsel Rafez: "Everyone should have played like Mahmudullah in this 2nd innings. Perhaps then the lead would have gone close to 250." -- Easier said than done. He made it look easy while he was there, but it's difficult to bat with footwork so decisive and such a clear head in these conditions.

ParkCricketer: "Given how well Miraz can bat in Tests and having Shakib as well as a genuine bowler puts Bangladesh in a great position to have a great combination for any conditions. Apart from both of them they still can have two spinners and two pacers for home and 3/4 pacers with 1/0 spinner for seaming conditions. But they still manage to pick someone to waste a spot like they did with Mithun. Why can't Mushfiq bat up or Mahmudullah? Isn't he who scored two double-hundreds? "

10.58am Bangladesh have done well to extend their lead past 200. An important knock from Mahmudullah to get them there. Given how much the ball is turning, I'd have Bangladesh as favourites at the moment.

Chase to Taijul Islam, OUT, and that is that. West Indies will need 204 to win. Steps out and gets nowhere near the pitch of the ball. Goes through with the big heave nonetheless, and the ball grabs the outside half of his bat and ends up in long-on's grateful hands

Chase to Mustafizur Rahman, 1 run, dropped. Slows it up and Mustafizur goes for the big leg-side slog. Top-edges it high towards the backtracking backward point fielder, Brathwaite, who puts down the two-hander

Chase to Mustafizur Rahman, no run, tight off-stump line, defended off the front foot back to the bowler

Bishoo to Taijul Islam, no run, now Taijul goes for the big sweep from outside off. Hits the inside half of his bat and he ends up dragging it squarer than he intended. I think it hit the square-leg fielder somewhere on his body, causing the cameraperson to lose track of the ball. Yikes, straight into Ambris's chest

Bishoo to Mustafizur Rahman, 1 run, bam, Mustafizur begins with a meaty slog-sweep against a length ball outside off. Hits it with the turn, and it bounces down to the right of the man at deep midwicket

Bishoo to Mahmudullah, OUT, Mahmudullah pays the price for premeditation here. Fourth wicket for Bishoo. Shaped to sweep even before the bowler released, and Bishoo shortened his length accordingly, while also flattening his trajectory. Mahmudullah ends up playing a half-hearted attempted lap-sweep, and only manages a top-edge that balloons to slip

Mahmudullah c Hope b Bishoo 31 (71m 46b 1x4 1x6) SR: 67.39

Bishoo to Taijul Islam, 1 run, floats this across into a fifth-stump line. Taijul looks for the push into the point region and gets a thick outside edge that rolls behind square - didn't turn as much as he expected it to

Taijul Islam is in at No. 10. Bishoo stays over the wicket to the left-hander.

Shohan: ""Youngest Centurion & Youngest 5-wicket haul in debut Test" - both records are now held by Bangladesh's player! (Mohammad Ashraful & Nayeem Hassan)."

Bishoo to Nayeem Hasan, OUT, gone, classic legspinner's dismissal. Flighted nicely outside off, inviting the drive. Doesn't get a proper stride out to the ball, and he isn't quite close enough to the pitch of the ball. Sharp turn to get the edge, and Hope takes a straightforward catch at slip, at around knee height

Nayeem Hasan c Hope b Bishoo 5 (24m 27b 0x4 0x6) SR: 18.51

Bishoo to Mahmudullah, 1 run, flat legbreak pitching on off and middle. Makes a lot of room to slap it to deep point and move the lead to 200

Chase to Nayeem Hasan, no run, down the pitch, possibly gets too close to the pitch to drive it off the meat of the bat. Squeezes it back to the bowler off the bottom of the bat

Chase to Nayeem Hasan, no run, dips onto a nice length close to off stump, defended towards short leg off the inside half of the bat

Chase to Nayeem Hasan, no run, more flight now, stretches out to block it back towards Chase

Chase to Nayeem Hasan, no run, stays on the back foot and is cramped by this one, which rips in sharply from outside off. Jams it down into the leg side

Chase to Nayeem Hasan, no run, a long way down the track but he's not quite to the pitch of the ball. Long final stride to defend with the turn to midwicket

Chase to Mahmudullah, 1 run, full outside off, clipped with the turn to long-on

Change in bowling. Roston Chase replaces Warrican. Slip, short leg and leg gully in place for the offspinner. Lots of wide open spaces in the cover/cover point region.

Bishoo to Nayeem Hasan, no run, googly, spins in from a good length fairly wide of off stump. Nayeem keeps it out with a flat-batted half-drive/half-forward defensive
