Decent catch.

Co-commentator makes the unfortunate error, when commentating cricket with Athar, of asking Athar about cricket.
He brings up Bangladesh's record with bundling out the tail being the worst out of all test nations in recent times, apparently based on numbers, and asks Athar what they can do about it.
Athar goes into defensive mode, mentioning the time against Pakistan that they did, in fact, bowl out the tail. Then he launches into a long-winded digressive spiel which could ultimately be boiled down into two points: they need to bowl a better line and length, and it's hard to get batsmen out after they're set and therefore it is better to get them out before they're set.
I've put it on mute.

Good to see this partnership after those two early morning wickets. Justin Greaves proving to be legit, after the form he had in the Super50

Just seen that he has a List A average of 40. That's mighty good going.

Wow. When was the last time the Windies scored 400?
July.

A near perfect day of test cricket for us.
Greaves fill in the AR role really well, hope he continues his excellence with the ball (if required)
Also, for the umpteenth time, Shamar is not a number 11

Started his career in List A batting 8 and opening the bowling too which skews his record in the wrong direction. Scored three tons in a row opening the batting in that format recently, his form has been elite.

Dont know why we are playing shoriful in tests. Also wth shahadat doing in the team. Team selection is getting bad day by day.

I'm gonna die on the Shoriful hill. Class bowler who'll make it work in red ball. If he doesn't, it'll be a huge waste of a genuine talent.
Who would you have instead of Shahadat?

Shoriful lost a bit of pace in recent days which is disappointing to see.
I guess Hridoy in place of Dipu

Roach bowling 120 k thunderbolts. This might be good enough for our lot

Yeah tbf he was back to that 125kph pace he was at when he returned from his last injury that makes him quite innocuous. Hopefully he's back to his 135kph stuff quicker than last time.
