3:14pm: Bangladesh do not enforce the follow on. They needed just three overs in the final session to topple the tailenders. The conditions are still cloudy and the hosts bowled just 39 overs in the innings. But instead of going for the innings win, which seems be what many of the commentors suggest as well, they have opted to give their batters another go. The action will resume soon, stay tuned.

Mehidy Hasan Miraz to Karim Janat, OUT, Mehidy gets his 150th Test wicket, helps Bangladesh secure a 236-run lead. Janat, probably in a bid to retain strike, marched down the pitch and realised that the ball was on a back of length and he was too far to go for a big shot. He tried to nudge it square in the last second. The ball was outside the line of the bat. Beat him and he was stumped to make Mehidy the third Bangladesh bowler to pick up 150 Test wickets.

Taijul Islam to Nijat Masood, OUT, Sharp catch by Zakir at silly mid-off. He was in front with silly point to his left. He went low and took it well. It was a length ball that was deadbatted from the sticker. It went low in the air, unfortunately for Masood, it went in the fielder's direction. Masood's hard hands didn't help. Zakir threw the ball hard into the ground in celebrations
