Tamim's ton not enough

MANCHESTER, England (AP):

England took charge of the second Test at Old Trafford yesterday as Bangladesh lost all 10 wickets between tea and the close of play to finish on 216 all out on the second day.

Despite a magnificent 108 from Tamim Iqbal that included 11 fours and one six, a disastrous evening session by Bangladesh, after reaching 96-0 at tea, handed England the initiative, Graeme Swann taking 5-76 and newcomer Ajmal Shahzad 3-45.

It left Bangladesh four runs short of the follow-on target at stumps. England captain Andrew Strauss has until 10 minutes before the start of play today to decide whether or not to enforce the follow-on.

"I don't think we expected 10 wickets to fall in a session," Swann said. "I can't remember that happening in my career."

It was Swann's first five-wicket haul in England, having achieved the feat six times abroad, and he said he was relieved to be bowling on a surface that helped the spinners, having had a tough time when England won the first test at Lord's.

"I'm delighted," he said. "I'd rather have a hole in my head than bowl on that (Lord's wicket) again. You've won, but you drive away feeling you've not contributed."

Earlier Saturday, Ian Bell was out for 128 and Matt Prior 93 as England made 419 in their first innings, Bangladesh captain Shakib Al Hasan taking 5-121.
