The Daily Morning Voice Online Desk: Bangladesh are on the brink of a follow-on against India losing eight wickets for 133 as they trail by 271 runs at stumps on the second day of the first Test at the Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium in Chattogram on Thursday. After bowling out the visitors for 404 post-lunch, the Tigers went to tea with 37 on the board with the loss of two wickets but it all came crumbling down in the third session of the day with. India’s Mohammad Siraj picking up two more and left-arm spinner Kuldeep Yadav spinning webs around the Bangladesh batters as he scalped four wickets post-tea leaving the Tigers tottering at 102-8 with a follow-on lurking.

Mushfiqur Rahim, who till that stage top-scored with 28 runs, got trapped lbw to Kuldeep and skipper Shakib Al Hasan, wicket-keeper Nurul Hasan Sohan, and Taijul Islam were the three others who were bamboozled by the left-arm spinner’s mystery spin. With Mehedi Hasan Miraz and Ebadot Hossain at the crease, Bangladesh would need to cross the 200-run mark to avoid a follow-on. Mehedi remained unbeaten on 16 with Ebadot not out on 13 at the other end.
