Sports Desk:  Despite Muminul Haque's fight, Bangladesh did not have a good first day of the Dhaka Test. At the end of the day, Bangladesh could not take a single wicket of India when they came out to bat. So on the second day Bangladesh bowlers will have to take a tough challenge. Bangladesh started the second day of the Dhaka Test on Friday.

Bangladesh were bowled out for 227 runs in the first innings yesterday before the first day of the Dhaka Test. Muminul Haque scored the highest 86 runs for the team. 

In the third session of the day, India scored 19 runs without a wicket in the first innings. Lokesh Rahul (3) and Shubman Gill (14) were wickets at the end of the day. Lokesh Rahul's team started the second day of the Test today trailing Bangladesh by 208 runs.

On the first day, Bangladesh won the toss and batted first at Mirpur Sherebangla Stadium. Batting earlier, two openers Zakir Hasan and Nazmul Hossain Shanto gave a good start. The first hour was spent by two wickets. But then Zakir left. 

Jaydev Unadkat brought Zakir back to Test cricket after an era. Zakir returned with an easy catch at slip off Unadkat. Broke the opening pair of 39 runs. The young batsman scored 15 runs off 34 balls. 

Shantao did not last after that. He returned lbw to Ravichandran Ashwin's off-stump delivery. He scored 24 runs off 57 balls. Bangladesh lost both these wickets in the first session.

After lunch came and beat Shakib Al Hasan. The Bangladesh captain gave away his wicket on the first ball of the second session. He scored 16 runs off 39 balls. Break the pair of 43 runs.

After that Muminul Haque fought. He took responsibility for repairing the innings. But no one could provide suitable company. Mushfiqur Rahim, Liton Das, Mehdi Hasan Miraj, Nurul Hasan Sohan departed one by one in the fight to settle on the wicket.

Bangladesh lost Mushfiq and Liton after Shakib in the second session. Mushfiqur got out for 26 off 46 balls. Lytton went uphill and scored 25 runs off 26 balls. He seemed to be in too much of a hurry.

Then the rest of the wickets go into the last session. However, Muminul was against the current. Muminul returned to Test after a long time and scored a half-century off 78 balls. After that, Bangladesh got two hundreds in his innings. Muminul gifted an innings of 84 runs off 157 balls. In which there were 12 boundaries and a six. He was on the wicket for 251 minutes.
