Can get away with that in County cricket , but in tests you got to graft a bit more to get those hundreds in

There is an underlying arrogance in his play still I'm not sure I 100% like. Almost Pietersen like. I personally prefer my best players to be understated.

Terrible shot and terrible review from Verreyne.

Another disappointing aspect is that Taijul Islam is comfortably Bangladeshi's most threatening bowler in this innings , why not just see him off .

Hero of the first test for South Africa follows up with a duck on what appears to be a batting paradise.
Funny old game is cricket which is why we love it so much I guess.

Miraz so innocuous again today. His bowling on unhelpful decks has always lacked threat, but I'd hoped he'd have got better by now after 8 years as a test cricketer. I think he'll be a world class spinner by his late 20s/early 30s but we're just going to have to wait.

Didn't he do okay on the Indian tour way back when with his batting?

If I remember correctly he did well against spin but it was the pacers that troubled him.

Irony abounds.

I don't know hey, he grew up playing at Kingsmead which has been spin friendly for a while. I can see why his technique is the way it is.

I think it's his action. Not much pivot and slow through the crease. He spins the ball a bit more against lefties because he has to go across himself. Against right handers he gets little drift, doesn't spin it enough to threaten the inside edge and doesn't bowl close enough to the stumps to threaten the outside edge.

Helluvan analysis

Only 25 overs in that session, pretty pathetic overrate from Bangladesh with all their spinners in action , we will lose play to bad light later in the 3rd session
