10:46am: Perfect start to the day for the visitors as they wrap things up with 5 for 20 in seven overs. New ball and Nijat Masood did wonders, but it was Ahmadzai who started the parade by getting rid of Mehidy. Both bowlers found swing and seam which was too difficult for the tailenders to manage and extra bounce which accounted for Mushfiqur. The clouds still look heavy which might make batting a harder challenge but the visitors will be chuffed with their performance thus far. Afghanistan's reply with the bat coming up shortly.

Khushal Afghan : "And that's it. Fifer for Young (Nijat) what a start in test cricket. Proud of you"

Nijat Masood to Shoriful Islam, OUT, Through the defence, stumps rattled and Masood has five-for on debut. He prays on the turf and is congratulated by cheerful team-mates. It was a full ball that was angling away before landing and straightened after, Shoriful tried to push it straight and it beat him on the inside edge

Yamin Ahmadzai to Taskin Ahmed, OUT, Big appeal for LBW is upheld. Taskin reviews with Bangladesh having all their reviews in hand but that looked out. It was a very full ball, swung in and beat the straight drive that tried to forge into an on drive to cope with the swing. It missed the bat and hit the knee roll of the back pad. Pitching around middle and hitting middle three-fourth of the way up.
