An inspired Ben Stokes revived England with ball and bat on the third day against Bangladesh on Saturday to put the visitors firmly in control of the opening test in Chittagong.
Stokes produced a brilliant effort to complete figures of 4-26 on a pitch largely unresponsive to pace bowling, triggering a batting collapse as Bangladesh were dismissed for 248 to give England a first-innings lead of 45.
Stokes then walked in to bat with England tottering on 4-46 in the second innings and propped up his team with a fighting 85.
At stumps, England had reached 8-228 for an overall lead of 273.
Chris Woakes on 11 and Stuart Broad on 10 were unbeaten at the crease at stumps.
The touring side were in dire straits early at 5-62 but Stokes added 127 for the sixth wicket with Jonny Bairstow, who made 47.
Stokes hit six fours and three sixes before he fell lbw to Shakib Al Hasan.
Bangladesh's left-arm spinner Shakib picked up his 15th five-wicket haul in Tests, making amends for playing a rash shot to get out in the morning for 31.
Earlier, the hosts looked as if they would get their noses in front when they resumed on 221 for five but England needed just over an hour to bundle them out.
Shakib danced out to Moeen's off-spin on the second delivery of the day but was nowhere near the ball and was stumped by yards.
Stokes swung the ball, adding the wickets of debutant Sabbir Rahman, Mehedi and Kamrul Islam to his tally.
Moeen finished with 3-75 as Bangladesh lost their last six wickets for 27 runs.
