Mushfiqur brings up ton as Tigers dominate first session on Day 4

Playing his first Test in Pakistan, Mushfiqur Rahim notched up a century as Bangladesh closed the gap on the hosts’ first innings total of 448 for six (declared) on Day 4 of their first Test in Rawalpindi on Saturday. 
At lunch, Bangladesh reached 389 for six, with Mushfiqur unbeaten on 101 off 208 deliveries and Mehedi Hasan Miraz on 17 off 44 deliveries. Bangladesh still trail by 59 runs.  
Mushfiqur brought up his 11th Test ton near the end of the first session when he nudged on past the wicketkeeper through to fine leg to complete a double.
Bangladesh scored 73 runs in the 25-over session, losing just a solitary wicket — that of Liton Das, who nicked one back to the wicketkeeper off a Naseem Shah delivery to walk back following a 56-run knock early in the day. 
Since Liton’s dismissal, Mushfiqur and Miraz regrouped to stitch an unbeaten seventh-wicket stand of 57 runs. 
Pakistan pacer Naseem Shah got rid of Bangladesh batter Liton Das inside the first hour of Day 4 of their first Test in Rawalpindi, ending a 114-run sixth-wicket stand between Liton and Mushfiqur Rahim. 
 
After 104 overs, Bangladesh reached 335 for six, with overnight batter Mushfiqur unbeaten on 67 and Mehedi Hasan Miraz, who had just come on to the crease, on two off 11 deliveries. The Tigers still trail by 113 runs in reply to Pakistan’s first innings score of 448 for six (declared). 
Bangladesh started the day positively, playing Pakistan pacers with little to no trouble until Liton nicked one back to the keeper to depart after a 78-ball 56-run knock. Pakistan pacers’ ploy of bowling short finally did the trick as Liton could not hold back the temptation of playing at an outside off length delivery that had extra bounce in it.
Mushfiqur also survived an LBW scare when the right-handed batter was given out off the bowling of pacer Mohammad Ali only for the decision to be reversed following a review.
