Mushfiqur Rahim missed out on a record consecutive third century by a Bangladeshi batsman but this little man's 85-run innings once again showed why he is considered the best batsman in the team. The right-hander's composed knock and 106-run seventh wicket stand with Mehedi Hasan Miraz not only saved his side from conceding the follow-on but also made a small record as he is now involved in the most number of century partnerships (15) among Bangladesh players. Mushfiqur's purple patch this year and the love affair with Galle continued and more importantly he applied himself brilliantly when most of his colleagues failed to capitalise on a good batting pitch.
