Dhaka, Oct. 12 -- Litton Das struck his seventh Test century as Bangladesh declared their second innings on 372-7 to set Afghanistan a daunting target of 479 on the fourth day of the one-off Test in Abu Dhabi.

The wicketkeeper-batsman made 102 off 117 balls, hitting 14 fours, before falling to Mohammad Saleem Safi at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium on Monday.

Bangladesh captain Najmul Hossain Shanto declared immediately after his dismissal, ending a seventh-wicket partnership of 149 runs with Mehidy Hasan Miraz, who remained unbeaten on 52 off 97 deliveries.

Litton reached his hundred off 115 balls with a late-cut boundary off Qais Ahmad, becoming the first Bangladesh batter to score a century in the match.
