**Official** England in Bangladesh 2016

Man Islam and Kamrul have added nothing have they. Bangladesh would have been miles better off picking a batsman and an all rounder and you could say it's cost them the game.
I don't think Kamrul getting Bairstow in the second innings was worth nothing tbf, and you could argue that the ability to change the pace up once a session or so helped the other bowlers I guess.

They won't, because he's not even in the squad. They're much more likely to pick Hom.
Oh ffs BD selectors get your **** together.

Moses or Nasir would fill out this XI so well.

Hom still a better choice than Kamrul

That filthy of filthiest longhops from Rashid almost got a wicket. ****.

Beginning to look a little desperate here, need the breakthrough or a brainfart from the batsmen. They have played well since tea. Got all the time in the world to get there so no need to be too rash.

Can't decide when will be the best time to start making posts along the lines of; 'Actually it will be good for the game if the Banglas pull this off'

Bring Batty back. Rashid’s best chance of getting a wicket is with a long hop and Bangladesh seem happy just hitting those for ones and twos at the moment.

'that's pressure, he wasn't on straight after tea and now they need him to get a wicket, that's why he's bowled a loose delivery'

Adil Rashid having never bowled a loose delivery before now

fair play to kamrul we were laughing on comms about how much he sucked (the answer to which, was, btw, a lot) but he did get bairstow and break up that partnership

ffs btw this is where captain shady slim brings on a part timer (tbf i would have at around 180-190 lol)

too many gaps in the field, still think England need to attack more
I kind of don't mind it, just because it's Bangladesh. They're unlikely to calmly milk the bowlers to victory regardless of the field and the bowling just because they're Bangladesh. Delaying the result works in England's favour.

Yeah that's when Rashid came on.

But they are going to run out of time tonight. Can't see the light holding and England need a quick to be bowling as at least they can hold up an end.

International Regular
As a maiden Bangladesh victory over England shifts from a possibility to a probability, I can't help but wonder why not a few more of the millions of Chittagonians show up!

doesn't Soumar Sarkar bowl handy mediums if they want a seam bowler so bad - he can be the Bangi Shane Watson/Andy Flintoff

International Debutant
Looking at the rest of BD's batting, England is still ahead I think. Mehedi has some first class runs but 9,10 and 11 are proper tail-enders and would be under huge pressure if they have to bat; I would back England to roll them very quickly. I think this pair will have to get BD within 50.
