Mahmudullah carries Bangladesh's hopes


Mahmudullah carries Bangladesh's hopes
Bangladesh stumbled early in the morning session of the final day. Jadeja pitched an accurate delivery outside the off stump. There is a massive explosion of dust, kissed very top of the Shakib’s bat and rapidly went to the short leg. Shakib only added one run to his previous day’s 21 and left Bangladesh on 106. Mushfiq was playing sensibly after that. He took several deliveries to set on the crease and also punished loose deliveries from the bowlers. The skipper, however, decided to attack Ashwin in his very first over. He came down the wicket on his first delivery and hit straightly. In the very next ball, he again executed superb footwork to clinch a boundary through cover region. He had to restrict his intention in that over but didn’t. He again rushed down the track to slog the ball but miserably mistimed. Fielder took an easy catch eventually. Mushfiq’s suicidal dismissal brought Sabbir to the crease who so far done well to accompany Mahmudullah. Mahmudullah has been played diligently so far and already clinched a fifty. He has to carry on in the rest two sessions as well since India are on the brisk to debunk Bangladeshi tails.
