Buck gets in on the action

Date: Wednesday 08 July 2009

Nathan Buck had a good day as England under 19s continued to dominate the first test against Bangladesh.

Buck made nine not out at the back end of England's first innings, helping skipper Hamza Riazuddin (95) to add 66 for the final wicket as the team totalled 502.

The paceman then took 2-38 from 12 overs as Bangladesh ended day two on 265-9.

Durham’s Scott Borthwick took four wickets, while Chris Wood (two) and Azeem Rafiq (one) also got in on the act.

The team will be looking to enforce the follow-on by wrapping up the innings. Buck’s County teammate Josh Cobb previously shone on the first day with a cracking score of 220.
