Day four at Galle belonged to Bangladesh and records as the visitors racked up their first 600 plus score with Mushfiqur Rahim becoming the first Bangladesh player to score a double hundred in Tests.

Mohammed Ashraful and Rahim could only add six runs to their overnight partnership of 261, before the former fell ten runs short of double hundred with Rangana Herath taking the wicket.

Rahim then compiled a 106-run stand with Nasir Hossain as he got to his maiden double hundred – Bangladesh’s first in Test cricket since their inception in 2001. Rahim got to his 200 in 320 balls aided by 22 fours and a six. He got out a ball later off Kulasekara.
