*Official* Bangladesh in Zimbabwe 2021 (full tour)

I don't mind some of these shots they're playing - in particular, the cut shots they've attempted at the short wide ones. But that was a shocker from Mithun. Ended up being a front foot half-drive/half-cut, and too cross-bat to deal with the bounce. Needed to commit to a backfoot drive with a straight bat, or just leave it if he was already on the front foot.

They've bowled well to be fair. Was impressed with Chatara as well as Muzarabani. Chatara looked like he found some real rhythm.

comeon 9 overs to go and they sent miraz to bat. Who takes these decisions?
It's absolute nonsense. Isam just made a droll tweet about Bangladesh's "loyalty" to the left-right combination, so that might be the reason. It's ****ing stupid, whatever it is. Situation was made for Saif.

So both your new ball quicks have got a wicket, so obviously the best thing to do is throw the ball to a spinner in the sixth over. FFS.

Their batting's a bit thin without all their guns (obvious to say). Hopefully Dion Myers becomes their next international standard batsman.

A five-fa for Shakib is a nice thing to end the match with.

Still can't rule out a Zim win at some stage given their bowling displays but they seriously need to slow down a bit with the bat. There's a few there who can clout the ball a bit. Dion Myers looked comfortable square of the wicket despite the way he went out. Madhevere clearly has a lot of talent and I saw he got a couple of scores against Pakistan. It's a real shame there's no Ervine to help Taylor anchor the innings.

He's going to need to be one of Zimbabwe's best ever cricketers to stop a pretty sudden slide into the next tier IMO.

Not ruling it out though.
I recall you saying that before yes.

Am still planning a trip to Zim once COVID is over. Fingers crossed!
