  "summary": "In a closely contested second Test match between Bangladesh and West Indies in Sylhet, the West Indies secured a 1-0 series lead by winning the game. Towhid Hridoy made history by becoming the first Bangladeshi batter to score 324 runs in a Test match, while the West Indies captain Roston Chase declared at 398-6, setting Bangladesh a target of 369. Hridoy's impressive 242-run knock in the first innings, along with a 117-run partnership with Taijul Islam, helped Bangladesh post a 30-run lead. Despite a strong chase by the West Indies, including a notable unbeaten 140-run innings from Kavem Hodge, Bangladesh's total was not enough to secure a victory.",
