#4 England 64/10 versus Bangladesh at Mirpur (Second Test)

Bangladesh recorded a famous Test win

Sabbir Rahman and Bangladesh were left high and dry, stuttering at the threshold of victory in the first Test of the series against England this July. Inexperience caught up with the Tigers as England tantalisingly eschewed their maiden defeat against Bangladesh in Test cricket.

Leading the series by 1-0, England were firm favourites to wrap up the series and accomplish a clean sweep. Bangladesh, on the other hand, rummaged for some sort of inspiration to re-ignite the spark. Courtesy a gutsy ton by Tamim Iqbal, Bangladesh scored 220 runs in their first innings.

Following a stern resistance from the lower order, England managed a slender lead of 24 runs. Bangladesh pushed hard in their second innings to set England a target of 273 runs with two days remaining in the contest.

England cantered along to a 100 run stand through Alastair Cook and Ben Duckett, but Bangladesh clawed their way back, riding on Mehedi Hasan and Shakib-Al-Hasan’s stupendous spell, and finally stunned the British to a defeat by 108 runs as they lost all their ten wickets in a space of 21.3 overs.
