It was only the seventh time Bangladesh have upheld 400 in their decade as a Test-playing republic and absolutely eclipsed their tip measure opposite England.

Bangladesh resumed on 330 for eight and, with the tail exposed, England contingency have been targeting a quick clean-up job.

Shafiul had alternative ideas, though, and came out fervent to call the bat at anything short or wide.

He competence have been out on at slightest dual occasions had Cook opted for an additional man in the trip thong but Shafiul helped himself to a array of bounds to the empty third man position.

With a tip measure of thirteen in his prior 6 Test innings, England contingency have approaching his fitness to run out but instead the array 10 grew in confidence, twice pushing Graeme Swann expertly by the covers.

He narrowly avoided being hold at mid-on and mid-off as he overtook his partner Naeem, who had a 25-run value at the begin of play.

Tim Bresnan in the future discharged him for 53 in 51 balls, but Naeem (59 not out) hold organisation and Rubel Hossain (17) done a hoax of a Test normal of only over dual to enlarge England"s frustrations.

Cook was shortly off the mark, with bounds possibly side of lunch removing him started.

Trott, though, struggled to come out of his shell, receiving 33 deliveries to get off the mark.

Cook looked in carry out prior to slog-sweeping Abdur Razzak true in to the hands of Imrul Kayes, who was posted at prolonged leg for the shot.

Pietersen was subsequent in, batting for the initial time at array three, and got off the symbol with a unsure single.

Shakib Al Hasan shortly put himself on in tandem with Razzak, a transparent try to examine Pietersen"s new struggles opposite left-arm spin.

The twenty-nine year-old survived one charcterised bat-pad interest whilst still on one, with replays confirming there had been no inside edge.

The second-wicket span battled tough for the residue of the afternoon session, with Trott complicated in counterclaim and Pietersen high on finalise but low on inspiration.

Like England prior to them, Bangladesh"s bowlers found small benefit from the pitch, nonetheless they did a noticeably improved pursuit of restricting boundaries.

At tea their partnership was value a workmanlike 65, with Trott twenty-eight not out and Pietersen on 35.
