The Test Updates

Bangladesh face hardship in the coming days after the tailenders got quickly dismissed and straight after the West Indies batsmen took the sword to them finishing the 3rd day in their second innings at 207/3. 















West Indies 355 and 207 for 3 (Bravo 100*, Kirk Edwards 86) lead Bangladesh 231 (Shakib 73, Naeem 45, Fidel Edwards 5-63) by 331 runs


After Bangladesh were shortly dismissed to 231, West Indies took advantage of the lack of pace and movement to bat the Bangladeshi bowlers to frustration. Kirk Edwards and Darren Bravo were the starts of the show by scoring respectable 86 and 100 not out going into the final 2 days of the Test. Shakib al Hasan had a few chances such as the ball turning so much that it missed slip and raced away for a boundary. Missed chances like this will be something that marred Bangladesh's day but they hope to restrict them in to respectable target for them to chase coming into the final 2 days of the Test where the advantage is to the West Indies but it is for the Tigers to claw back what they lost...
