Towhid Hridoy makes history for Bangladesh but West Indies seal Test series win

Hridoy struck an unbeaten 242 in the first innings, also the 25-year-old's maiden Test hundred, as the hosts recovered to post 386 all out in reply to the Windies' score of 356.

West Indies, with a 30-run deficit, then hit back strongly in the second innings to amass 398-6 declared with number 3 Kavem Hodge top-scoring with 142 while debutant Kevin Wickham hit 78.

With the declaration coming in teh first session on the final day, Bangladesh needed 369 runs to win if they wanted to square the two-match series.

The home side then slipped to 40-2 but Hridoy once again stood up with an enterprising 82 to become teh first player from his country to score mire than 300 runs in a Test match.

Mushfiqur Rahim contributed 49, and in the process became the first Bangladesh player to reach 7000 runs in Test cricket, as the hosts reached 184-4 before bad light brought an early end to proceedings.

West Indies claimed the series 1-0 following an eight-wicket victory in the first Test in Mirpur.
