Following that match, Mominul Haque was ruled out of the second Test due to a concussion, leading the Bangladesh Cricket Board to name Amite Hasan to the 15-member squad. During the second Test in Sylhet, Hasan Mahmud delivered a significant performance, claiming six wickets for 90 runs to bowl out West Indies for 356 in their first innings. This achievement marked Mahmud’s fifth five-wicket haul in Test cricket, making him the first Bangladeshi fast bowler to reach that milestone.
