Day 5
Day 4
Debutant Sunny lights up Bangladesh's day
Fittingly, the highlight of the day was the left-arm spinner Elias Sunny, who, on debut, injected some excitement into an encounter heading for only one result
Day 3
Wet outfield ruins day three as well
Overnight rain ruined any prospects of cricket on the third day as well in Chittagong, and the umpires abandoned the day's play around 90 minutes after the scheduled start
Day 2
Rain, damp outfield ensures no play
Overnight and early morning rain, and a damp outfield under overcast conditions, ensured there was no play on the second day of the first Test between Bangladesh and West Indies in Chittagong
Day 1
Bangladesh batsmen build strong platform
A solid performance from Bangladesh's batsmen on a placid track marked the start of the Test series in Chittagong, leaving the bowlers potentially facing five days of hard work
Bangladesh good, but could have been better
Bangladesh ended the first day on 255 for 4, a solid performance, but their position could have been so much better
