Three wickets, two to Pedro Collins, set back Bangladesh before lunch on the opening day of the second and final Test against West Indies today.

Choosing to bat, Bangladesh reached 73 for three in their first innings at the interval with Rajin Saleh not out on 16 and Mohammad Ashraful not out on 10.

Greeted by a hard, helpful Sabina Park pitch, Collins removed opening batsman Hannan Sarkar and captain Habibul Bashar in the first hour to carry figures of two wickets for 24 runs from eight overs into the interval.

Fidel Edwards, his brother, added the wicket of Javed Omar to end a satisfying morning for the home team.

BRIEF SCORE

Bangladesh: 73/3 J Omar 20, H Bashar 20, R Saleh 16 not out, M Ashraful 10, Collins 2/24.
