Saleh - full name: Khondokar Mohammad Rajin Saleh Alam - has notched his half century. It is his first Test match but he has good form at first class level with 5 hundreds and 5 fifties in 20 matches for an average of 47+.
He is 57 and Mashud is 17 as they get close to a 200 lead. At 5/243 and these two looking set - their partnership has reached 48 - they could give Pakistan a problem total to chase.

Another player making his debut has just swung the initiative back Pakistan's way.
Shabbir Ahmed took 3 quick wickets, including Saleh (60).
Ahmed has taken 4/48 and Kaneria 3/85 to see Bangladesh on 9/274, a lead of 216.
Ahmed (fast medium) just took the last wicket to finish with 5/48 to add to his 3/61 from the first innings. The Bangers lost their last 5 wickets for only 23.
Pakistan need 217 to win.

They are now 1/112 and in a strong position at stumps.
Hameed is 68 n.o. and is some sort of a chance to begin his Test career with 170 in the first innings and, with only 32 runs needed, a century in the second. If he stays in to the win, he'll have around 125 - 140 n.o. That's 300 or so for once out in your debut in a Test match.
They have all day tomorrow to get 105 more runs for a win.

Pakistan have moved on to 1/144.
Hafeez has just brought up his half century and Hameed is 86 and on target to turn in the second best ever debut in Tests.
Lawrence Rowe scored 214 and 100 n.o. for the Windies in about 1970. As far as I know, he's the only batsman to have not only scored centuries in the first and second innings in a debut Test but scored a double ton and an unbeaten 100.
Rafique just bowled Hafeez for 50.
