Tamim, Shakib tons drive BD to 433

A nuggety Tamim Iqbal century was complemented by a stroke-filled one from Shakib Al Hasan as Bangladesh cashed in on the painstaking foundation they had laid in Khulna to make 433. Zimbabwe's bowlers struggled to reprise the discipline they had shown on the opening day and have left their batsmen open to an immense amount of scoreboard pressure. Hamilton Masakadza and debutant opener Brian Chari were able to weather a pitch that seemed more responsive to the host bowlers to take their side to stumps with one batsman down. Taijul Islam, fresh from an eight-wicket haul, was handed the new ball and derived just enough turn to make their arm balls a threat. One of those sliders thudded into Sikandar Raza's pads. It had looked very marginal and the batsman had a right to opt for a review. However, the original call of umpire Billy Bowden was upheld when HawkEye revealed the ball would have tickled leg stump. The visitors' best period of play was when they strung a ten-over spell after lunch that produced only six runs and a wicket, according to Cricinfo.
