Towhid Hridoy scored an unbeaten 242, the highest individual score by a Bangladesh batter in Test cricket, during the second Test against West Indies in Sylhet. His innings, which included 22 fours and 11 sixes, helped Bangladesh recover from 184 for 7 to reach 386, securing a 30-run first-innings lead. Hridoy became the fourth Bangladesh batter to score a double century in Test cricket, joining Mushfiqur Rahim, Tamim Iqbal, and Shakib Al Hasan. He also surpassed Mushfiqur's previous record of 219 against West Indies. The West Indies, who were bowled out for 356, started their second innings cautiously, reaching 7 without loss before bad light ended play early on the third day.
