In reply, Bangladesh reached 73-1 in 15.2 overs with Nafees Iqbal batting on 21 and Tushar Imran on 38. The only batsman dismissed was Shahriar Nafees, who made seven.

Earlier, fast bowler Shahadat Hossain claimed two wickets while left-arm spinner Abdur Razzak finished Lancashire innings with three wickets after visiting captain Shahriar Nafees decided to field first.

Despite a half-an-hour's play lost due to rain, Bangladesh A enjoyed a good day in the field.

Lancashire lost wickets at regular intervals with Shahadat, who came on as first change bowler, removing both openers on the same score of 42. But it was new-ball bowler Syed Russel who had the most economical spell taking 1-16 in allotted 10 overs.

Another paceman Talha Jubair, however, was expensive giving away 39 runs in eight overs for his lone success while Razzak had the best figures, picking up three for 25 from 7.4 overs. Alok Kapali chipped in with the other wicket for 12 runs.
