West Indies Reach 334/9 as Jangoo Hits Century Against Bangladesh
West Indies moved to 334/9 on Day 2 of the second Test against Bangladesh in Sylhet, with Amir Jangoo leading the visitors' recovery through a superb 133-run innings. The wicketkeeper-batter produced the highest score of the innings before Hasan Mahmud took charge with the ball, claiming six wickets.
The visitors had a difficult start on the opening day after losing three wickets for just 27 runs. Taskin Ahmed removed Brandon King and Joshua Da Silva, while Hasan Mahmud sent Kavem Hodge back for just one.
