  • We were ahead of the game - Mushfiqur

    Mushfiqur Rahim said South Africa could have crumbled under the pressure of scoring quickly if play had been possible on the last two days of the Chittagong Test

  • 'Game was poised in our favour' - Amla

    Bangladesh may receive most of the plaudits for their plucky performance for most of the three days of the drawn first Test but Hashim Amla believes that South Africa were in pole position when the weather intervened

  • Mushfiqur applauds bowlers' toil

    Bangladesh captain Mushfiqur Rahim said he was surprised by the discipline of seamer Mohammad Shahid, and praised Mustafizur Rahman's ability to learn quickly

  • Spirited Bangladesh take giant strides

    Rain was a regular occurrence in Chittagong, but Bangladesh still had plenty of positives to take away, none more so than proving to be more than a match for South Africa

  • Rain-hit Test ends in tame draw

    The first Test between Bangladesh and South Africa ended in a tame draw after rain washed out the last two days without a ball being bowled
