Chittagong: Ben Stokes produced an outstanding all-round display as England built a lead of 273 after three days of the first Test with Bangladesh in Chittagong.
His spell of 3-9 saw the hosts all out for 248, losing 5-27 in 12 overs to concede a first innings lead of 45.
England then slipped to 28-3 at lunch and were only 107 ahead when Moeen Ali became the fifth man to depart.
But Stokes hit three sixes in a superb 85, putting on 127 with Jonny Bairstow (47) as England closed on 228-8.
The match remains delicately poised, though Shakib Al Hasan's 15th five-wicket haul gave the home side hope.
England have won all eight of their previous encounters against the Tigers.
Mehedi ended England's confident start in the second innings when he induced an edge from captain Alastair Cook who left for 12 after giving a catch to Mahmudullah at slip.
Shakib trapped Joe Root lbw for one in the next over to take his 150th Test wicket before he had Ben Duckett caught by Mominul Haque at forward short leg for 15.
Gary Ballance fell to Taijul Islam for nine after the break before Shakib grabbed his third wicket by dismissing Moeen Ali for 14.
Earlier, it was a comeback for the Bangladesh all-rounder, who put his team in trouble by throwing his wicket off the second ball of the morning.
Resuming on 221-5, Bangladesh were hoping Shakib, who was unbeaten on 31 overnight, would take them close to England's first innings total.
But he went down the wicket before the dust had settled and paid the price as Jonny Bairstow completed a simple stumping.
Adil Rashid removed nightwatchman Shafiul Islam for two as Stuart Broad took the catch high on his head at midwicket.
Stokes, who finished with 4-27, had Mehedi lbw for one in the next over before a low catch at slip by Cook ended Sabbir Rahman's effort at 19.
He bowled third debutant Kamrul Islam in the same over to wrap up Bangladesh's innings as the hosts added just 27 runs to their overnight score for the loss of five wickets in 12 overs.
