Taijul Islam to Stirling, out Caught by Mahmudul Hasan Joy!! Both openers back in the hut. Soon as short leg took the catch, Stirling started to walk. He knew it came off the bat. A loopy round-arm delivery that pitches outside leg stump and catches the inside edge of the forward prodding Stirling before looping to the fielder off the front pad. Flies to the left of Mahmudul Hasan Joy and he accepts it gleefully. Stirling c Mahmudul Hasan Joy b Taijul Islam 9(27) [4s-1]
