Bangladesh won the toss and elected to bat first as they wanted to give a good total to their bowlers in second half but the decision looked to go against in 8th over as Junaid Siddique gave a simple catch to Harris on Langeveldt bowling.Then wicket started to fall in quick session. Only few batsmen manage to touch double figures.
