Friday, 14 November 2014


Bangladesh reached 23-0 without loss and extended its lead to 152 after bowling out Zimbabwe for 374 on the 3rd day of the third cricket Test in Chittagong on Friday. Imrul Kayes was batting on 11 with Tamim Iqbal on 8 at stumps, as Bangladesh chase a first 3-0 series sweep. Legspinner Jubair Hossain claimed a career-best 5-96 earlier to help the Tigers take a big 129-run lead on the 1st innings. Elton Chigumbura struck a career-best 88 but his dismissal prompted a collapse. Zimbabwe lost its last four wickets for 18 runs. Sikandar Raza made 82, also his best, while Hamilton Masakadza scored 81. Regis Chakabva was the other notable contributor with 65. In his third fifty in his fourth Test, Raza smashed 10 fours, while Masakadza hit nine fours and cleared the rope once as he got his third successive half century, according to a news agency.
