*Official* Bangladesh in South Africa 2022

[Heboric]

Congrats Bangladesh fans

Utter domination. Fantastic.

History has been made too! First ever bilateral series win over South Africa in any format. They may be without their IPL stars, but we'll take it

Oh wait they're full strength for this ODI series too no? Rabada, Kock, Dussen...excellent.

 

[Aritro]

Well that was really something.

 

[Bahseph]

Great win for Bangladesh. I'd love to see what the causes of this loss are blamed on. Interesting times!

 

[StephenZA]

Congrats to Bangladesh. SA team pretty much getting what they deserve. Harsh on some players, but the continuing failure to actually build a team will only make everything worse.

 

[CricAddict]

Best chance for BD to win a test series in South Africa with everyone gone to IPL.

 

[cnerd123]

hyped for this

 

[Aritro]

Shoriful out is a huge blow for us. Khaled Ahmed comes in.

 

[Aritro]

Khaled will no doubt be excited to improve on his test stat line of 1 wicket in 3 matches at an average of 291 (S/R 465).

 

[StephenZA]

Based on squad I don't dislike that SA team... would probably have chosen Sipamla over Williams though.

BD bowling first, possibly due to Tamim having a stomach bug lol

what's this delay, why aren't the sightscreens ready before toss

lol electronic sightscreens failed

 

[Heboric]

Oh Durban

 

[cnerd123]

capitalism is killing cricket

 

[cnerd123]

this is a joke lol. Whose bright idea was the digital sightscreen anyways? Couldn't build a back up / fail safe for a situation like this?

 

[cnerd123]

half an hour of lost time. Someone needs to be held accountable for this.

Horrible full toss first ball too lol. Shabby start to the series all round

Yeah embarrassing really

 

[cnerd123]

seems like a decent batting track. BD need to pitch it up fuller

 

[Aritro]

Ebadot bowling well but he keeps losing direction in his run up and coming in at a sort of curve. It's costing him momentum.

And yeah, they keep bowling the pointless "unlucky" length.

 

[cnerd123]

Khaled's bowling average now up to 301
