Disagree with Hawkeye quite strongly there. Heading down for all money.
Bollocks; he was so far back in the crease he may as well have been standing on top of the stumps. Pretty much anything that hit his pads in that position would have also hit the stumps.

Swaneh getting a first hand look at the pitch then.
So much for Shazhad's batting featuring in his selection.
I suppose you could argue that Sidebottom or Anderson would have been a place too high at 9.

Beyond that, it would have been nonsense for SB to have leapfrogged Shazhad into the attack.
Anyway, let's hope the last 3 stick around ling enough for Prior to have a chance of reaching 3 figures..

SiBo's played most of his games at #9. I see the case for your second point though.

I'm surprised, but I'll take your word for it. fwiw he's always stuck me as a decent number 10 and a slightly below par number 9, but I suppose it depends who else was playing.

Shahzad is a genuine allrounder and can bat very well.No worries about Prior not having time for his ton,it is all whether he can get there or gives it away.

Well Prior gave it away anyway.End of discussion.:laugh:

Don't deserve tons with crap like that.

Finn out 2 balls later and Shakib bags 5.

Bangladesh hopes rest so much on Tamim reaching a big score. Pretty decent puller of the ball, nice to see a bat from Bangladesh play with some confidence from the back-foot.
