Sports Desk: Exactly one year later, Bangladesh started playing Tests. The last time the Tigers played against Zimbabwe was in February last year. After a long absence, Tiger captain Mominul Haque decided to bat after winning the toss against the West Indies. Bangladesh lost the wicket of Tamim Iqbal (9) in the beginning. Caribbean fast bowler Kemar Roach bowled the left-arm opener in the fifth over of the innings.

The Sadman-Shanta duo was on their way to a big collection after overcoming that initial push. However, he got run out due to misunderstanding and returned to the pavilion. He made 25 runs before being dismissed.

Then Tiger captain Mominul Haque came to the crease. Now the lunch break is on. Sadman and Muminul are batting. Bangladesh scored 69 runs for the loss of 2 wickets. Sadman is batting for 33 runs. Muminul is on 2 runs. Kemar Roach took 1 wicket for West Indies.

Bangladesh XI: Tamim Iqbal, Sadman Islam, Nazmul Hossain Shant, Muminul Haque (captain), Mushfiqur Rahim, Shakib Al Hasan, Liton Das (wicket keeper), Mehedi Hasan Miraj, Naeem Hasan, Taizul Islam and Mostafizur Rahman.

West Indies XI: Craig Brathwaite (captain), John Campbell, Enkrumah Bonner, Jermaine Blackwood, Joshua da Silva (wicketkeeper), Kyle Myers, Rakim Cornwall, Shine Mosley, Jomel Warrickan, Kemar Roach and Shawn.
