England deciding against enforcing the follow on have stretched their second innings lead to 434 having bowled out Bangladesh for 296. The visitors are shaken up in their second innings at 131 for 5 but they have already got enough on the board. The third day’s play saw some stiff resistance coming in form of the little Mushfiqur Rahim who scored 79 (from 152 balls). Swann finished with a five-wicket haul.
