Tigers on course to maul Afghanistan in Test

Captain Rahmat Shah, a first-innings centurion, has gone for 51 but opener Sediq Atal  continues to resist, batting eight minutes shy of four hours for an unbeaten 35.

Bangladesh had resumed on Monday at 6-223 with Das on five. He was given good support by Mehidy Hasan Miraz who made an unbeaten 52 as the pair added 149 for the seventh wicket.

Bangladesh declared when Das was dismissed, htree balls after completing his 117-ball century. Both batters had been dropped twice and Afghanistan also missed run-out chances.
