Taskin Ahmed’s first two deliveries hit a length and while the first went away from the left-handed Vikramjit Singh, the second went away just slightly off the deck from the right-handed Bas de Leede and both deliveries made the batters play and got the nick off the bats.

The tone had been set, and the fielders had their tails up as Bangladesh made up for any lacking with the bat in the first innings.
