**Official** England in Bangladesh 2016

Interestingly poised, although disappointing to note that whilst there is a Rabbi in the Bangladeshi hutch there don't appear to be any actual rabbits

Seems like Bangaldesh's day overall, but don't think we are in a terrible position. Keep them down to lead of 50 and that should be fine given they are going to bat last.

Needless late wicket lost. Mushfiqur went into his shell far too early. Just prodded around and played too many dot balls and let the bowler bowl too him. Should have kept up his previous temp and kept tipping the scoreboard over instead of getting stuck.

DRS in for England/India series. Got to give credit to BCCI on this as well as the ICC for finding fairly irrefutable evidence from about as strong a source as imaginable in MIT.

India to use DRS for England Tests on trial basis | Cricket | ESPN Cricinfo
This is indeed a step in the right direction but what the ICC needs to do now is to put it on the market, invite tenders and sell it to one company as a whole for all series for a certain period. That way, DRS remains consistent no matter who is playing and where

As much as I think the BD ODI team is very good, I've been increasingly cynical about the test side. I find it hard to call this BD's day at 220/5. I wouldn't be surprised if England take the lead. BD batsmen have a limit to how long they can stay at the crease - whether it's Tamim or Mushfiq or Shakib. You know their limit and no matter how well they are batting, as soon as they reach that limit, they will give it away. It's quite frustrating really.

They have always seemed to do that, but they have got four blokes left to come in who are far from useless with the bat so they really should grab a handy lead against our modest spin attack

In the previous 8 tests between the sides, England pretty much dominated all of them. Now, in this on-going test match, they have a reasonable chance of losing this. England struggling against Bangladesh lately? :laugh:

In 2nd Test of last series over here Bangladesh set 419 first innings and England 107-3 in reply. Wouldn't say that is much different from current situation to be honest.

Seeing what Australia did in Sri Lanka, what they would have done had they went ahead with the Bangladesh tour.

I hope Bangladesh's Mental Block doesn't carry over in this Test
