Mahmudullah Riyad completed his third Test century to take Bangladesh into a strong position in the second Test against West Indies in Dhaka on Saturday.
The hosts reached 471-8 by tea on the second day, with Mahmudullah batting on 111, having resumed his innings on 31 in the morning.
Taijul Islam was accompanying Mahmudullah on 26 runs at the break.
Mahmudullah helped Bangladesh consolidate as he put on 111-run with Shakib Al Hasan for the sixth wicket and 92-run with Liton Das for the seventh wicket after Bangladesh resumed second day's play 259-5.
Shakib, who was unbeaten on 55 overnight, made 80 off 139 balls before he was dismissed by Kemar Roach.
Shakib hit Roston Chase for three consecutive fours in the fourth over of the morning but paid the price for his aggression as Shai Hope claimed his catch at gully.
