Innings breakAfghanistan 146 all out (Zazai 36, Jamal 35, Ebadot 4-47) trail Bangladesh 382 (Shanto 146, Joy 76, Masood 5-79) by 236 runs

Afghanistan were bowled out for 146 shortly after the tea break on the second day of the Dhaka Test. Bangladesh didn't enforce the follow-on. Ebadot Hossain led the charge with a four-wicket haul, with Shoriful Islam, Mehidy Hasan Miraz and Taijul Islam taking two wickets each. Ebadot's best bowling figures, 4 for 47, has taken his bowling average below 50 for the first time in his Test career.

Taijul and Mehidy took the last two wickets after the visitors were 144 for 8 at tea. Afghanistan are 236 runs short of Bangladesh's 382 all out.

Afghanistan lost five wickets in the second session, starting with the wicket of their captain Hashmatullah Shahidi, who fell to Shoriful's extra bounce. Mehidy took the catch in the slips as Afghanistan slipped to 51 for four.

Nasir Jamal and Afsar Zazai added 65 runs for the fifth wicket to rebuild the Afghanistan innings. The pair struck 12 boundaries between them, but both the batters fell in the span of four balls. Jamal's knock of 35 off 43 balls was ended when Mehidy trapped him lbw. Ebadot had Zazai caught at deep square leg for 36 before Mominul Haque took a brilliant, sharp catch at short leg to remove Amir Hamza. Taijul then dismissed Yamin Ahmadzai for a duck.

Earlier, eight wickets fell in the day's first session after Afghanistan took the hosts' last five wickets in 4.5 overs before the Bangladesh bowlers reduced the visitors to 35 for 3. Nijat Masood became the second Afghanistan bowler, after Hamza, to take a five-wicket haul on debut.

But it was his new-ball partner Ahmadzai who started Bangladesh's collapse when he removed Mehidy for 48, caught at gully. Mushfiqur Rahim fended Masood to second slip on 47. Masood had Taijul caught at short leg before completing his five-for with Shoriful's wicket.

Bangladesh, however, used the new ball and bounce to good effect. The left-arm quick Shoriful had Ibrahim Zadran caught behind in the sixth over of Afghanistan's innings. Ebadot got into the wickets with Abdul Malik and Rahmat Shah falling to him.

Bangladesh were 362 for 5 at stumps on the first day, with Najmul Hossain Shanto scoring 146. But they could add only 20 more to the overnight score.
