Scorecard

Matthew Wood and Joe Sayers condemned Bangladesh A to a day of toil in the field against Yorkshire, as they rattled along to a first-wicket partnership of 272 on the first day of the tour match at Headingley.

Sayers eventually fell for 115, his second hundred in four first-class matches this season, but Wood carried on and on, eventually prompting the declaration once he had converted his first hundred of the season into a double, from 252 balls, with 28 fours and a six.

The only Yorkshire batsman to miss out was Michael Lumb, who belted two fours in 12 balls but was bowled by Shadahat Hossain for 14. Yorkshire declared on 357 for 2, and were soon celebrating yet more success, as John Blain trapped Nafees Iqbal lbw for 5, as Bangladesh closed on 25 for 1.
