Bangladesh v England: second Test, day one
Bangladesh win the toss and choose to bat first on what Bob Willis calls a 'very dry' pitch. Tamim Iqbal, celebrating his 21st birthday, gets them off to a steady start Photograph: Stu Forster/Getty Images Photograph: Stu Forster/guardian.co.uk Having been dropped by Cook on 36, and seeing his fellow opener Imrul Kayes go cheaply, Tamim hammers 85 runs before being caught behind to give James Tredwell his first Test wicket. Tamim goes for a sweep but it strikes his forearm and flies up in the air for Matt Prior to run to his right to take a good catch diving forward Photograph: Stu Forster/Getty Images Photograph: Stu Forster/guardian.co.uk Debutany Jahurul Islam comes to the crease and goes for a duck LBW to Swann. He pushed tentatively round his front pad at an orthodox off spinner and Tony Hill raised the finger. It looked tight on both line and height, and Hawkeye just had it hitting the top of leg.

Seven overs later with the score on 167 the partnership is broken. Swann is working Siddique's outside edge but then suddenly he beats him on the inside with a bit of drift.

Mahmudullah smashes the ball away Photograph: Gareth Copley/PA Photograph: Gareth Copley/guardian.co.uk In the 57th over the new bowler, Steven Finn, strikes with his first ball. Mahmudullah goes for a leaden-footed drive outside off and edges it straight to Collingwood at backward point. Out for 59. Bangladesh 226-5 Photograph: Aijaz Rahi/AP Photograph: Aijaz Rahi/guardian.co.uk Woeful cricket from Shakib Al Hasan in the first over after tea. He survives a massive shout for LBW (inside-edge), strikes an unconvincing boundary over mid-off, and then completely misses a sweep at a straight one. He wasn't plumb, but he was definitely out one short of his half century off the bowling of Tredwell Photograph: Gareth Copley/PA Photograph: Gareth Copley/guardian.co.uk Collingwood tries to save runs off a Bresnan delivery Photograph: Andrew Biraj/Reuters Photograph: Andrew Biraj/guardian.co.uk Mushfiqur Rahim looks dangerous as he arrives at the crease. England take the new ball at the first opportunity in the 81st over and two overs later Mushfiqur is gone for 30. Bresnan bowls a sharp lifter on off stump that takes the edge on its way through to Prior. Bangladesh 301-7 Photograph: Munir Uz Zaman/AFP/Getty Images Photograph: Munir Uz Zaman/guardian.co.uk Thirteen runs are added before the final wicket of the day falls. Swann strikes with the first ball of a new spell. It's a hopeless mow across the line from Abdur Razzak, who misses a ball that would have hit the outside half of leg stump. Bangladesh see out the remaining half a dozen overs to stumps. End of play 330-8 Photograph: Gareth Copley/PA Photograph: Gareth Copley/guardian.co.uk
