4:40pm: Tamim was back on the field for the last over of the innings, so he should be okay to bat, and due to it being an external injury, he will not have to spend any time off the field before batting. So Tamim can open the innings.

4:35pm: Taijul leads Bangladesh off the field after his 11th Test 5-fer. .It's been a very professional effort from the hosts' bowlers, but Ireland will be kicking themselves. There were starts for various batters, but none of them really carried on, with Harry Tector's 50 the top scorer in their innings. The inexperience at this level and in this format also showed with some of the shot selection. Bangladesh are on top at this stage, with the pitch not showing any inconsistencies at this moment. We'll be back in a bit for the Bangladesh innings, in which they'll have to bat 10 overs.

Taijul Islam to Adair, OUT, Has Taijul got his 5-fer? The umpire seems to think so, Adair wants him to check again. This is the arm ball, pitched on a length, Adair went all the way but doesn't get any bat on it and gets pinged on the pads. The umpire had no hesitation in raising his finger, and with good reason, as ball tracking returns three reds.

Taijul Islam to Adair, FOUR, that's a poor ball, and poor fielding as well. It was a short ball that was begging to be hit, Adair rocked back and pulled it away. Didn't get the best contact on it, but Mehidy runs around from deep square leg and kicks it into the boundary toblerone
