*Official* Bangladesh in New Zealand 2016/2017

This is a similar script from the past. Match will be over halfway through last session.

The more things change, the more they stay the same

This thread is a tough read. People just promoting their particular agendas. Couple of really bad posters clogging up the internet.

On topic, I am pleased for the Bangles; it's great to see them showing some fight. Really disappointing from NZ, though. With the ball, especially.

And what's up with this pitch? As a Welly boy myself, it makes for a grim watch.

 

[Blocky]

Yeah; damn, imagine that, coming to a Cricket forum and having to read peoples opinions about the Cricket.

hopefully imrul gets better, done well in the fill in job

Yeesh. Why do you wrist slitters keep watching then?

 

[indiaholic]

That is not pessimistic at all. This is Bangladesh ffs. They started being competitive in the recent past.

The irony of throwing this at AZH in a thread where CM Punk, Jonbrooks and Blocky have made hundreds of posts.

 

[Energetic]

220-250 would be a good target for NZ. They will be trapped in two minds.

What does this even mean?

He thinks you dress in black, have your hair swept over your forehead and feel that nobody understands you.

6 innings, 6 runs, 1, 1, 1, 2, 0, 1

Good job you can bowl lad

Mullah has been terrible in tests without digging up his numbers in last few years. Also he gets out in crucial times. You would expect him to perform after spending good amount of time in international cricket. His days are numbered now esp in tests. If he fails in 2nd test, I would like to see Mosaddek in place of him in India.

I was busy yesterday afternoon so just skimmed through the last ten pages or so. What a thread. :o

Sacrilege though it may be for a NZ supporter to say, but hopefully we can bundle Bangers out this morning and chase down the runs without too many problems.

Looking forward to today, the pitch looks flat as still. Weather looks the best it's been in the match (which isn't saying much), and the game has opened up a tad. Probably half a day to far advanced to get a result, but still possible. I swear Bangladesh didn't declare on the 3rd morning to ensure they couldn't lost the game, instead of declaring early(on 550 odd) and going for a win. Maybe that's smart.

We'll need to bowl them out within 40 overs to have a go at it, with round 220 to chase. This is where we need someone with genuine pace to rattle and tear through sides. Can Boult step it up?

 

[NZTailender]

Yeah looks like an interesting day of cricket is setup. Despite the pitch this may not play out into a boring draw. Either way Bangladesh should be proud of their performance.

Bangers are effectively five down right? Seems like Rahim and Kayes are out.

I thought i saw Rahim padded up last night, but will admit my facial recognition of bangladeshi's aint great

 

[Chewie]

Cricinfo is saying Rahim was padded up

 

[NZTailender]

He was also having a net session while Bang were fielding.

He might be a chance for The Most Highest Scores thread if he keeps playing for any length of time.
