Bangladesh level series with Mehidy Hasan’s five-for

Mehidy Hasan Miraz bowled Bangladesh to a series-levelling win on the fifth day at the Shere Bangla stadium, taking 5 for 38 as Zimbabwe were bowled out for 224 half way through the second session.

Brendan Taylor scored his second century of the game, but Zimbabwe's batting crumbled around him and they collapsed from 186 for 4 to 224 all out, with Mehidy running quickly through the tail.

Zimbabwe briefly resisted through a 66-run stand between Taylor and Peter Moor, but Mehidy broke through to have Moor well-caught off the inside edge at short leg and open the door for Bangladesh. A suicidal single ended Regis Chakabva's resistance early, and Mehidy made short work of the tail.
