*Official* Bangladesh in the West Indies 2018

[Shri]

8th test ton for Brathwaite. Good replacement for Sarwan/Chanderpaul

 

[Beamer]

Great to see another Kraigg special. You can always rely on him to take some sting out of the new ball and if he gets in he stays in for ages. A good classic test match opener.

However, Hety is the one that turned this into an excellent day by moving the scoreboard along and dominating the bowling in the true West Indian way. It was so good to see and I really really hope he goes on to get a big hundred to kick start his test career.

 

[Borges]

Right! An early wicket makes this a bit more interesting.

 

[Beamer]

Damn it, I really wanted Hety to get that ton! Oh well. The way the ball is bouncing for the seamers (who are a good yard slower than ours) does not bode well for Bangladesh.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

He got a good ball from Abu. Just a change of angle did the trick.

 

[Borges]

There was no need to go poke at that ball, away from the body.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Abu strikes again. He's making the ball talk.

 

[Beamer]

Chase gone. He is going through a prolonged slump now, getting out between 15 and 30 all the time. It's a bit worrying.

 

[Daemon]

Great start for Bangladesh. Abu should bowl with the new ball and then just stop.

Much better this from BD

Hope we bat well

 

[Borges]

This is some fight back by Bangladesh, or capitulation by the West Indies, whichever way one wants to see it.
And that on what is probably going to be the best day for batting on this wicket.

The ball has done quite a lot though. Swinging, seaming and spinning. I personally think we've got too many runs for Bangladesh already. Let's see though, a Tamim special could change things.

 

[Borges]

C'mon, get this last wicket. Let's see some bounce now.

 

[Borges]

The more I see of this Jason Holder, the more I like this guy.

 

[Slifer]

Not surprised by wi implosion. I do think that 350+ esp vs Bangladesh is still a good score. And our lower order has bailed us out more than enough times.

 

[Borges]

Right., that's it. Now, let us see whether these Bangladesh batsmen are men or mice.

 

[GotSpin]

Cummins with consecutive no balls too now

 

[GotSpin]

Good from Holder

Hope and Chase really need some runs though

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Right., that's it. Now, let us see whether these Bangladesh batsmen are men or mice.

The latter

 

[Slifer]

149 all out so....
