Off-spinner Al-Amin Hossain showed Afghanistan how dangerous Bangladeshi spinners could be at their home ground.

Even he is not genuine bowler and not in the Bangladesh Test squad, still Al-Amin claimed 4-51 to spark the Afghans collapse that saw the visitors reach 242-6 at the end of day one in two-day match at MA Aziz Stadium in Chattogram on Sunday.

After opting to bat first, Afghanistan openers Ihsanullah and Ibrahim Zadran batted well as they combined well for a 131-run partnership to hint a tough day for the hosts.

Both of them struck half-century before retiring to give others a chance to bat on. Ihsanullah made 62 while Zadran scored 52.
