*Official* England in Bangladesh

[Pothas]

No doubt that he will get a century before lunch if he does not get out.

 

[Athlai]

Tamim possibly to join names such as Trumper and Bradman with a 100 before lunch.

 

[_Ed_]

Awesome.

 

[WindieWeathers]

To be honest it's hard to know whether this good start from Bangla is down to England's poor bowling/fielding or Bangla's good batting, perhaps it's a mixture of both because although the batsman have played some lovely strokes they've also been allowed to get away with murder today, some of the dropped catches have been shambolic, it's good to see Bangla putting up a fight though, even if it might just be for one innings.

 

[Jayzamann]

I want him to make it, sure. But it would be odd to have him up there with such privleged company. You don't think of Trumper and Bradman when you look at Iqbal.

It's one person doing this

 

[Sir Alex]

The only two guys whom I don't mind butcher Swanneh are Tamim and Tendulkar.

If he does it, he deserves to be in that company.

You better pray he stays at the crease for a while then!! .

 

[Athlai]

Gotta love the England C bowling lineup getting taken to.

 

[Jayzamann]

If he does it, he deserves to be in that company.

It'll be a sign of the times, eh? Any sort of ascendancy in Bangers cricket is something to relish.

 

[Athlai]

Happy Birthday Tamim.

 

[Sir Alex]

No Tamim

 

[Jayzamann]

Poo bum.

 

[Athlai]

Rats.

 

[cricman]

Went off the Arm

 

[Athlai]

Waz robbed.

Jahurul! Been keeping an eye on him this year.

 

[cricman]

265 ao

I'm going to bed

Ashraful will be recalled for the return tour

 

[Sir Alex]

265 ao

I'm going to bed

Ashraful will be recalled for the return tour

That would be a nightmare..

 

[cricman]

That would be a nightmare..

Imrul averages 10 axe him already, Siddique is an Opener

Jahirul wouldn't make it alive at Lords, you can mentally ruin a cricketer, the gap between Bangladeshi 1st Class Cricket and Test Cricket is very big ... In his life time he's never seen a ball turn that much (thats how bad our Spin Prospects Suck)

Nafees Iqbal (Tamims Brother) is just as Talented as Tamim but Injuries have really hampered his Career. A Coach like Jamie can do wonders with him, He scored a FC century vs England and than called them a ordinary Bowling Side.

Raqibul is Banned

Ash scores a few runs once he's dropped by the selectors, and Jamie still rates him very highly. WIth All the Work he's done with Tamim, Juniad, Mahmuddallah and Rahim ... He still believes Ashraful is the one to put them over the top.

He Averages 50 at #5 and 33 at #6, but he needs to play in the Top order
