First Test, Chittagong (day five)

England 293 & 240: Stokes 85, Shakib 5-85
Bangladesh 248 & 263: Sabbir 64*, Batty 3-65

England won by 22 runs


England rescued a 22-run victory on the final morning of an intriguing first Test in Chittagong as man of the match Ben Stokes took the final two wickets.

Bangladesh began the day needing 33 to beat England for the first time in a Test match, with two wickets remaining.

They calmly added 10 runs before Taijul Islam was given out lbw after a review.

Two balls later Stokes removed last man Shafiul Islam, who was given out lbw and failed to overturn it on review as Bangladesh were dismissed for 263.

Going into the game, the Tigers had won just seven of their 93 Tests, beating only Zimbabwe and an under-strength West Indies.

They have another opportunity in the second and final Test of the series, which begins in Dhaka on Friday.
