Rahmat Shah 102(187)
69.3
Nayeem to Rahmat, out Caught by Soumya Sarkar!! Hundred and out! Lapse in concentration? Might well be the case. Chases a wide-ish ball and pays the price. It was a flighted delivery and might have drifted away a bit. Doesn't turn and all Rahmat manages with his attempted booming drive is an outside edge. Soumya Sarkar, at first slip, snaffles with both hands. This is the opening Bangladesh were looking for desperately. The 120-run stand has been broken in the second over after tea. Rahmat c Soumya Sarkar b Nayeem 102(187) [4s-10 6s-2]
