Bangladesh vs Ireland Highlights, Only Test Day 3 in Dhaka: Visitors fight to take 131 run lead
Bangladesh vs Ireland Day 2 Report: Bangladesh took control against Ireland with a strong performance Wednesday on Day 2 of the one-off cricket Test, highlighted by Mushfiqur Rahim’s century.
The veteran batter hit 126 to lead Bangladesh to 369 all out despite offspinner Andy McBrine’s career-best 6-118.
Bangladesh spinners then came into the act on an increasingly deteriorating pitch to reduce the Irish to 27-4 at stumps, leaving them needing 128 runs to force the hosts to bat a second time.
Skipper Shakib Al Hasan and fellow left-arm spinner Taijul Islam shared four wickets to keep Bangladesh’s nose in front.
Peter Moor was on 10 and Harry Tector, the half-centurion of first innings, was on 8.
