On day two of the three-day warm-up match between Bangladesh and the CWI President's XI at the Coolidge Cricket Ground in Antigua, fast bowler Ebadot Hossain made an impact with the ball with three wickets.
Tamim Iqbal had expanded his overnight total of 140 to 162 off 287 balls earlier in the day as Bangladesh declared their first innings on 309 for seven after 97 overs.
In response, Tagenarine Chanderpaul, the son of Windies batting legend Shivnarine Chanderpaul, hit a fifty while fellow opener Solozano remained unbeaten on 83 to help the hosts build a good platform.
Rejaur Rahman Raja broke the 109-run opening stand by removing Chanderpaul on 59. Until Ebadot precipitated a batting collapse, the home side was riding along at 152 for 1.
Ebadot struck out set batter Tevin Imlach (27) and then trapped new batter Alick Athanaze in front with his following delivery.
Ebadot struck again as Roston Chase was caught behind by wicket-keeper and captain Liton Das.
The hosts scored 167 runs in four innings. President's, on the other hand, fought back and finished the day with a score of 201 for four in 66 overs.
