Bangladesh spinners, led by their talismanic skipper Shakib Al Hasan and young Mehidy Hasan Miraz, forced Indian batters to press the panic button in a tricky chase of 145 as the visitors ended an engaging third day’s play, tottering at 45 for 4 in the second Test here on Saturday.

“I feel that we shouldn’t think too much now because we have lost just four wickets. We need around 80 [100] or so. We need just one batter to get set, Axar Patel is showing the right intent at the crease,” Mohammed Siraj said after the day’s play.
