Bangladesh recovered from early setbacks to reach 117 for three, with Tamim and Towhid Hridoy leading the fightback in the ongoing Test against South Africa.
At the latest score, Tamim was unbeaten on 67 off 107 balls, while Hridoy remained not out on 33 from 61 deliveries. The pair have added a valuable partnership to stabilise the Bangladesh innings after the Tigers lost three wickets.
Tamim has anchored the innings with a composed knock, showing patience and determination at the crease. Hridoy, meanwhile, has provided solid support, helping Bangladesh rebuild their innings and regain some control.
With seven wickets still in hand, Bangladesh will look to build on the partnership and post a competitive first-innings total against the South African bowling attack.
The ongoing stand between the two batters could prove crucial in determining Bangladesh's position in the match.
