Morning Destruction: West Indies Spinners Rip Through Bangladesh as Shadman's Ton Goes in Vain

Morning Collapse: Resuming Day 2 at 213 for 3 in the first Test match report in Mirpur, Bangladesh lost their last seven wickets for just 59 runs and were bowled out for 272 in 97.4 overs before the lunch break.

Warrican's Five-For: Left-arm spinner Jomel Warrican spearheaded the West Indies bowling attack with figures of 5 for 53, claiming his fourth Test five-wicket haul after picking up two wickets in successive balls right before lunch.

Bangladesh Innings: Shadman's Century and Lower-Order Slide

Shadman's Milestone: Shadman Islam reached his century—his third in Tests—off the second ball of the day, continuing the record of overnight batters on 99 always converting to three figures. He was eventually dismissed by debutant Joshua Bishop for 105 off 234 balls (hitting 11 fours).

Joseph struck twice thereafter, first getting Nayeem Hasan caught at second slip for 5. He had Hasan Mahmud caught behind for 6, before Warrican completed his five-wicket haul with the wickets of Taijul Islam and Shoriful Islam in consecutive balls.

Batting Slump: After Shadman's departure, Bangladesh unraveled quickly, losing 5 wickets for just 19 runs. Towhid Hridoy (who returned to the crease after suffering from cramps on Day 1) fell without adding to his overnight score of 42.

Late Resistance: Wicketkeeper Litton Das fought to keep the innings afloat, finishing undefeated on 34 as the tailenders fell cheaply to Warrican and Shamar Joseph (2 for 41).

Bowling Breakdown

West Indies Spin & Pace: Alongside Warrican's five-wicket haul, left-arm spinner Joshua Bishop claimed 2 for 61 on his Test debut, while fast bowler Shamar Joseph chipped in with 2 for 41 to dismantle the lower-middle order.
