Mahmud makes early inroads

WI vs Bangladesh, 1st Test

Hasan Mahmud dealt a double blow as Bangladesh looked to wrap up West Indies' first innings early on the second morning of the first Test in Antigua on Saturday.

The right-arm pacer trapped Windies wicketkeeper Joshua Da Silva (14) in the first over of the day, with the second new ball only five overs old. Da Silva was trapped in front and the umpire raised his finger, the review returning umpire's call on impact.

Mahmud then removed Alzarri Joseph in his next over, Zakir Hasan taking a superb catch at gully. It was his 25th wicket of the calendar year, most by a Bangladeshi pacer, surpassing 23 by Shahadat Hossain in 2008.

Mahmud could have a third in the same over when he trapped Kemar Roach in front, but the umpire did not raise his finger this time and the review returned umpire's call. 

Having started the day at 250 for five, West Indies were 261 for seven within three overs.
