Stubbs: it was tough going

Though they took control on the opening day of the second Test against Bangladesh, top-order batter Tristan Stubbs (below) felt the conditions were tougher than the Proteas top order might have made it look in Chattogram yesterday.

After winning the toss and choosing to bat, the SA team lost captain Aiden Markram for 33 runs in the 18th over, before Stubbs joined Tony de Zorzi as they stuck their heels in at the crease.

De Zorzi and Stubbs both hit their maiden Test centuries, with the duo sharing 201 runs for the second wicket.
