Tamim misses his century against Sri Lanka
175
DHAKA, April 21, 2021 (BSS)- Bangladesh opener Tamim Iqbal missed his well-deserved century by 10 runs on the opening day of the first Test against Sri Lanka at the Pallekele International Cricket Stadium.
But before his dismissal, he laid a solid platform for the side, after Bangladesh Captain Mominul Haque chose to bat first.
The Tigers received a setback, losing opener Saif Hasan, who was out with naught in the second over of the game. But his early dismissal couldn’t stop Tamim, who came hard on the Lankan bowlers on a placid deck.
He got ably support from Nazmul Hossain Shanto, with whom he shared 144-run for the second wicket stand to put Bangladesh on strong position.
