Tamim ton the beacon on 13-wicket day

This was a day of Test cricket in two parts. Amid the initial 41 overs, with Tamim Iqbal in imperious shape, 171 runs were scored and only one wicket fell; from the 35.2 knocked down some pins from there on, the relating returns were 99 and 12. When rain touched base to stop the night session, with England three-down in their answer to 220, it was misty entirely where the adjust of force lived.

Bangladesh's innings had reeled from the tranquil to the tremulous. A bewildering breakdown either side of the tea interim brought about a sickness inciting slide of 9 for 49, an apparently prevailing position diminished to rubble. Moeen Ali was the primary impetus and recipient for England, in spite of the fact that Ben Stokes' relentless spell of 6-2-7-2 preceding tea merited high acclaim, his dominance of turn around swing by and by creating the sorts of issues that turn - at first in any event - had neglected to accomplish.

Energy was absolutely with England as they started their innings, having battled once more from one of their most exceedingly awful knocking down some pins exhibitions of late memory, however by and by a delicate top-request was uncovered by spinners more positive about their specialty. Ben Duckett fell in the second over, before Mehedi Hasan evacuated Alastair Cook - lbw through the most recent audit in an arrangement loaded down with them - and Gary Ballance to leave England 42 for 3 and looking tensely to Joe Root for the required innings of substance.

Regardless of losing a wicket in the third over of the day, Tamim's third Test hundred against England had given Bangladesh a strong establishment and left Cook hysterically rearranging through his knocking down some pins alternatives. Mominul Haque scored a fresh half-century as he and Tamim delivered crisp mental blows on an as of now ambushed turn accomplice amid a remain of 170 - Bangladesh's most elevated for the second wicket against England - which came at a rate serenely above four an over.

Tamim straddled the morning and early evening amid a grand innings loaded with wise stroke-production that finished in two full-blooded drives through the spreads to go to three figures, however he didn't include numerous all the more having imprudently cushioned up to Moeen's arm ball. Mominul's first critical commitment of the arrangement was additionally a refined thump however he was then rocked the bowling alley for 66 playing back to a comparative conveyance. That over, the 46th of the innings, was the primary lady knocked down some pins by a spinner, a measure of how England had been not able contain the combine.

The wind, when it came, was a sharp every last one the all the more amazing after England's subcontinental feeble spot had been uncovered once more. Taking after on from Tamim and Monimul, the following most astounding score was 13, as Stokes afresh applied his will on procedures by giving both control and entrance, while Moeen found a depression to complete with 5 for 57 - just his second five-for in Tests.

Feeds' risk was likewise physical, as Mushfiqur Rahim could verify. With the ball switching, Stokes had Mahmudullah taken at slip and he then roughed up Mushfiqur with a grunting bouncer that struck the Bangladesh commander on the back of the cap as he dismissed. He got up to bear on after treatment by the physio yet was back in the changing room minutes after the fact after a splendid catch from Cook at leg slip, who clung on at the second endeavor after Mushfiqur had inside-edged a look off Moeen through his legs.

Sabbir Rahman, so almost the saint of Chittagong, fell quietly to Stokes with the tea interim drawing closer; Chris Woakes struck twice straight in the wake of, having Shuvagata Hom and Shakib Al Hasan got behind; and England effectively swung to the DRS to have Mehedi lbw before Moeen gathered things together when Kamrul Islam Rabbi was taken at slip.

Mushfiqur's head probably been turning twice over. He had would be advised to fortunes toward the begin of his 50th Test, having won the hurl and chose to bat first - simply the kind of favorable luck he more likely than not sought after subsequent to choosing to run in with a fourth spinner on a broke surface that was required to turn.

It could yet demonstrate unequivocal, after Tamim slammed home the underlying favorable position. His eighth fifty or more score against England in 11 innings came after Woakes had gotten a wicket in his second over and helped Bangladesh react decidedly amid an energizing stand with Mominul. Tamim motored to 60-ball fifty, having neglected to score off his initial 19 conveyances amid a careful opening, furthermore effectively used the audit framework - such an element of the primary Test - by upsetting a got behind choice on 66, in no time before the meal break.

Cook battled for control for the duration of the morning session, with just Stokes going at under three runs an over. Zafar Ansari, into the side as one of two changes from England's triumph in Chittagong, endured a berating prologue to Test cricket as his initial six overs were exhausted to the tune of 36 runs. The debutant left-armer was not seen once more.England had found success after being put into the field, throttling the scoring and removing Imrul Kayes, and after four overs the card had gone nowhere at 1 for 1. Mominul eased the pressure with a brace of boundaries off Woakes; Tamim, meanwhile, was content to bide his time against the new ball.
Cook turned to Moeen in the seventh over but the sight of spin encouraged Tamim to kick into gear as he stepped out to drive his first boundary. Three fours off Woakes - leg-side flick, back-foot drive and a meaty pull - confirmed that he had hit his stride and another brace came in the next over, as Tamim welcomed Ansari by crunching him through the covers and down the ground. Ansari did succeed in drawing an edge with his second delivery, though it scuttled wide of slip for three, and his opening over cost 13 runs, England still no nearer to finding a spinner who could offer control.
Mominul happily ceded the impetus to his partner, as Bangladesh reached the top of the hour in a much more comfortable position at 67 for 1, with England also wasting a review against Tamim when he padded up to a Moeen delivery that was shown to be bouncing over the stumps. Tamim's fifty came up via a sweep off Ansari and it took a vigorous spell from Stokes to ensure Bangladesh's progress would not be completely unfettered.
It was Stokes who thought he had broken through, too, when Kumar Dharmasena raised his finger for a catch down the leg side. However, DRS quickly confirmed that the ball had flicked Tamim's thigh pad rather than glove, the procession of successful reviews growing longer. Tamim then took a blow to the ribs from a Stokes short ball before Mominul stroked the 15th boundary of the morning sessions to ensure Bangladesh went in to lunch far the happier of the two sides. Then things got a lot more complicated.
