Having picked four bowlers rather than the standard three, Mushfiqur Rahim's side rejected South Africa for just the second time in their two-sided challenges. It was the first drawn Test after eight monstrous thrashings for Bangladesh.
Mohammad Shahid, Jubair Hossain and Mustafizur Rahman knocked down some pins astonishingly before Tamim Iqbal, Mahmudullah, Liton Das and Shakib Al Hasan batted all around ok to take a first-innings lead. Downpour washed out the most recent two days of play however Bangladesh had done quite recently enough to claim strength.
That there were various entertainers separated from the standard ones was a consolation for Bangladesh. Case in point, Shahid's string of 50 speck balls had a tremendous effect on backing South Africa off after they traveled the first session of the Test. Liton excessively awed by batting decidedly on the third day.
South Africa's worries will be their batsmen not staying sufficiently long furthermore Quinton de Kock's structure. The SG ball softening up snappier has stressed Morne Morkel yet their gathering is maybe the best knocking down some pins assault on the planet and is required to bob back. The climate is likewise an issue. A lot of downpour is conjecture, however dissimilar to in Chittagong, whole days are unrealistic to be lost in Mirpur. There will be a lot of interferences, however, which will be baffling for the players.
