Rain halts Bangladesh progress against Pakistan

Bangladesh reach 315-1 at lunch on a rain-affected fifth day of their first Test against Pakistan in Khulna.

Bangladesh have reached 315-1 at lunch on a rain-affected fifth day of their first Test against Pakistan in Khulna.

After virtually wiping out Pakistan's huge first-innings score on day four, Bangladesh continued to build on that impressive display to lead their opponents by 19 runs.

However, Pakistan were able to claim the wicket of Imrul Kayes who was caught off of the bowling of Zulfiqar Babar in the 76th over, ending the 307-run opening partnership with Tamim Iqbal for Bangladesh.

Not long after the dismissal of Kayes, the covers were brought on and rain has since stopped play, with the players deciding to take lunch in the hope that it passes over quickly.

Iqbal remains unbeaten on 159 runs.
