“I think it is 60-40 in their side. The game is fairly even,” Langeveldt said after the day’s play on Wednesday.
“If they get a 100-run lead against us, we will be struggling. At the moment, it is fairly even,” he added.
Bangladesh batsman Mahmudullah almost agreed with him.
“I, too, think that we have 60 in our side. It may be 65-35,” he said.
“We have a long batting order. Shakib and Mushfiq are on the crease,” he said.
Skipper Mushfiqur Rahim and allrounder Shakib Al Hasan will open the Day Three on 16 and 1 respectively.
“We don’t usually get such an opportunity. We should use it,” Mahmudullah said.
