*Official* Bangladesh in England

[Jarquis]

Bangladesh to lose 8 wickets for 103 runs again (yn)

With that his average drops below 40 again and drops from 3rd to 9th in this list.

 

[pasag]

ech, first few minutes of the match I watched and Tamim goes almost immediately. Good catch though.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Brilliant knock by Tamim.I'd say he is the most exciting opener around now even over Sehwag.This guy is going to set all sorts of records for Bangladesh and it will be great fun seeing him do it.

 

[cricman]

Now w/ Kayes and Siddique it'll be non-stop short balls

 

[Jarquis]

Just managed to outdo Strauss and Trott for the largest partnership of the match so far.

 

[cricman]

Best to Attack IMO

Get as many runs past the Target as possible

 

[Scaly piscine]

Finn continuing to lead the attack. Says a lot about Anderson who just vanishes for large periods and Bresnan.

 

[cricman]

Why not Send Mahmudullah!

 

[Jarquis]

Bell is soo good at short leg.
Swanneh needs wickets

 

[popepouri]

For god's sake Bangladesh, please don't collapse.

 

[AlanJLegend]

Exciting stuff from Bangladesh.

Don't want to jinx them by getting too excited, but if they can be in a position of 250 runs ahead with 40 overs remaining things could get interesting. Considering it is at home against Bangladesh I can't imagine England would be satisfied with a draw.

Still, there's every chance the Bangas will have a massive collapse and lose by 10 wickets. We'll see what happens.

 

[Aritro]

****ing awful cricket from Jahurul. That's twice he's tried to hit it over long on, after failing to turn the strike over and getting frustrated.

Only a matter of time till he adds to a collapse.

If that happens, I'll happily get 'AlanJLegend' tattooed on my arse and post a pic on CricketWeb.

But I suspect we'll all come out of this unscathed.

 

[Jono]

Eng 1.8
Draw 2.28

Any value there for those watching? Either way?

Weather seems okay for tomorrow right?

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Weather is fine as is the pitch.As ever the Lords pitch is a belter to bat on and if you play sensibly you should cash in as a batsman.Bowlers must hate going there in recent years as there is nothing in it for them at all apart from a long hard slog.

 

[TT Boy]

Anderson looks like he couldn't give a toss. Gonna be flatter wickets in Aus.

 

[Cruxdude]

Really love Tamim. What a class act.

 

[cricman]

*yawn*

Short Ball, Short Ball, Short Ball

 

[cricman]

It looks like that Strauss is putting all his eggs on Finn w/ the New Ball

If that doesnt work, than Englands Bowlers are really going to lose this War of Attrition

Agreed,said before the game that we needed a 5th bowler and so it has proved.
