DHAKA: Tigers started to struggle again in their first innings of the second Test against West Indies at Gros Islet.

Tigers did well to restrict the West Indies to 380 all out after they had resumed on 246-3, despite Shivnarine Chanderpaul's unbeaten 84.

But KAJ Roach then bowled with good control to derail Bangladesh, which limped to stumps on 104-7, still trailing by 276. Giving 33 runs Roach picked up 5 wickets in 16 overs.
