Bangladesh won by 108 runs!

BIG day for Bangladesh cricket. The Tigers have registered their first ever Test win over England, and the star of the match is Mehedi Hasan Miraz who had a 12-wicket haul. He was ably supported by Shakib Al Hasan with five wickets. And Tamim Iqbal remained the only batsman in the match to have put up a triple figure score.


Over 30 || Score 118/2 (Alastair Cook 57; Gary Ballance 5)

The best bowler for the hosts in the 1st innings provided the break-through that they were looking in the form of Dukcett, Mehedi picked up his 1st wicket of 2nd innings. Just after 5 balls, Shakib dismissed Root for 1 run to bring Bangladesh back in the match.

England need 155 runs to win this Test match as well as the series and Bangladesh need 7 wickets to make this 1-1.
