Bangladesh trounces Afghanistan by 546 runs for its biggest ever Test victory

The Hindu  

Bangladesh beat Afghanistan by 546 runs on Saturday to record its biggest ever Test victory in terms of runs. As well as the wickets tumbling, Afghanistan had to deal with two batters being unable to continue their innings after being hit by rising deliveries — including last batter Zahir Khan. Bangladesh broke through in just the third over on Day 4 when Nasir Jamal nicked to the wicketkeeper as fast bowler Ebadot Hossain straightened one off the pitch to take the outside edge. Amid the resistance of Rahmat Shah, who made team-high 30, Bangladesh’s fast bowlers kept striking with left-arm paceman Shoriful Islam getting a double breakthrough in consecutive overs.
