*Official* New Zealand in Bangladesh 2023/24

I can't believe I ate the whole thing
Shoriful got some decent movement off the pitch in his second spell yesterday and iirc that's when he had Nicholls. He also had a few chances go begging so if Southee and Jamieson can hit a rhythm it may not come down to a battle of the spinners here

Thankfully it took an hour for Bangladesh to turn to Mominul, if he had bowled at the start of play they might have had a decent first innings lead.
Yeah seriously this.

First wicket goes , I don't think this is the type of wicket you just block out lads .
He's playing a proper meme test Chris Tavare test innings blocking both good balls and bad with no intention of scoring. The sort of innings that will delight Athar Ali Khan and Shamim Chowdhury who see any sort of scoring shot in a test match as a rash and ill-conceived failure of understanding. To be fair, they have the same attitude to any expansive shot that results in a dismissal in a white ball match .

Ideally he'd be dropping it smart places and running hard though. And putting away the actual bad balls.

Southee's sending down some sensational stuff here, on another note.

Hahaha Athar talking about batters going into their shell, as if he wouldn't launch into his usual moronic outrage as soon as they got out off an expansive shot. Just stfu idiot.
