Bangladesh is on its way to a definite defeat against Afghanistan. Rashid Khan leads the team in winning the Test in his debut as captain.
Bangladesh lost five wickets in 106 runs. Captain Shakib Al Hasan is fighting on the one hand. Bangladeshi batsmen have stuck themselves upside down by making a spin track to hit Afghanistan. Nobody can stand in front of Rashid-Prophet-Zahir.
Liton Das and Sadman Islam started the second innings of the innings with a huge target of 398 runs. The start was fairly good, but Litton Das (9) fell to LBW after a 30-run partnership by Zaheer Khan. Earlier, he got life with reviews. Shockingly, Mosaddek Hossain Saqqat scored 12 runs and was out for a suicide shot by Zaheer Khan. Mushfiqur Rahim could not become 'dependable' today.
Rashid Khan was bowled by LBW for 23. The umpire's decision could not be changed with the reviews.
Mominul Haque got the reputation of 'Test Specialist' but he did not understand Rashid Khan's rotation and scored 3 runs for LBW. Shakib joined Sadman and tried to build the pair. But 24 runs in the pair Mohammad Nabir bowled to LBW - 41 off Sadman. Shakib also got life once by courtesy Rashid at 11.
Today, the game begins three hours after the rain on the fourth day of the match. Shortly thereafter, the last two batsmen Yamin Ahmedzai (9) and Zaheer Khan (1) returned to the all-out 260 for Afghanistan. Afsar Jazai was unbeaten on 48. Afghanistan were in trouble early yesterday to take the second innings with a 137-run lead in the first inning. The top two batsmen Ihsanullah (4) and the first innings century Rahmat Shah (4) made their way to the pavilion, scoring just two runs. Courtesy of Shakib Al Hasan.
Naeem Hassan locked Hashmatullah Shahidi (12) in a benign government by 27 runs. The Bangladeshi bowlers could not hold on to this success. Ibrahim Zardan and Asghar Afghan hold the team firmly. The duo scored 108 runs in the fourth wicket. Asghar, who scored 50 off 108 balls, returned to Taizul Islam when the pair fell. The off-spinner of Mominul Haque was dismissed by young off-spinner Naim Hassan for 87 runs off 208 balls.
All-rounder Mohammad Nabi was caught by Miraj, who scored 8 runs. Rashid Khan, captain of the stumped innings of 24 for 22, was the victim of Taizul Islam. Earlier, Bangladesh were all out for 205 in reply to 342 for Afghans. Bangladesh has a record of chasing a maximum of 215 runs in the fourth innings. Moreover, Bangladesh never chased runs in the fourth innings in Chittagong.
