Khaled Ahmed to Brendan Taylor, out Caught by Amite Hasan!! Got him, there's the first wicket of the day! That's a peach of a delivery from Ahmed and Taylor couldn't have done much about that. He had to make him play and does exactly that. Hits the length hard and the ball angles in from over the wicket before shaping away enough from the surface to get the outside edge of the bat. Taylor couldn't leave this one and tried to put some bat to it, but ended up edging it to the keeper. Did try to take his bat out of the way but was too late by then. Didn't look convincing at all. Bangladesh have got the early wicket they needed. Brendan Taylor c Amite Hasan b Khaled Ahmed 17(54)
