***Official*** Australia in Bangladesh 2017

[Burgey]

16 runs have been scored so far today, all in boundaries

Taijul's done his job. Would have been nicer if he could have stuck around longer, but can't expect too much.

Kayes 2.0 in now, and I wonder if him and Tamim are going to do a better job of rotating the strike than Tamim and Taijul were managing. It is possible they decided that Tamim would handle Cummins and Taijul could tackle Lyon though.

It would be a mistake to just get in a shell and defend everything whilst also waiting for bad balls to hit for four. They need to keep taking the ones and twos and not let the bowlers settle into a rhythm against them.

Ok

A side effect not often considered about the night watchman is the momentum a bowling side can build up the next morning when they inevitably take his easy wicket

 

[mr_mister]

That was some appeal from Cummins

Genius review, Smith trying to deliberately handicap us to make the win even more glorious.

What's our ceiling to chase? 250ish?

Kayes looking to grind out a useful 14(59)

 

[Gnske]

Yeah, around that unfortunately

 

[Nate]

Traitor !!

Haven't supported Australia in... five years? Ten? Idk.

Bangladesh would deserve this, so much.

 

[GotSpin]

150 tbh

Nah I think much higher than that

They played laughably in the first innings, Smith got nothing and they still got 200+. I think it's possible for them to chase 300+. Doesn't mean it's likely though.

 

[mr_mister]

Imlol Kayes might finally be put out to pasture

 

[cnerd123]

geez thats a good ball. This pitch huh.

This is why it's important to keep finding ones and twos. Can't survive for long here, got to be positive and make most of your time at the crease.

Can't see Mushy surviving here for long given how he batted in the first innings. It's going to be all on Tamim and Shakib again :/

 

[mr_mister]

Is Mushy taller than Bavuma?
