**Official** England in Bangladesh 2016

Is this a joke?

it is one of Gnske's legendary 'jokes'

 

[Gnske]

The real joke is unfolding right before our eyes in this small Bangladeshi stadium

Ah ok, I see...

 

[91Jmay]

I didn't realise you'd just had a piss in the toilet there.

 

[fredfertang]

Bit harsh to describe Bangladesh playing really well as a joke

 

[cnerd123]

I'm scared to tune in

I've been hurt too many times before

 

[RossTaylorsBox]

Too late friend, 8th wicket partnership of 150 is on the cards now.

 

[Howe_zat]

Bangladeshis definitely shouldn't celebrate until Buttler is out. They've still got to take 10 wickets. England came back from a equally ****** position against SL. 1st ODI: England v Sri Lanka at Nottingham, Jun 21, 2016 | Cricket Scorecard | ESPN Cricinfo

Hope Bairstow's alleged injury isn't a problem, he needs to stay sharp between the wickets to hold off the pressure.

 

[91Jmay]

Reckon calling Taskin right arm fast is generous. He has a yard of pace but RF should be reserved for proper jets.

I still like Eng from here. Bat deep enough

Also the main dangers have bowled 13 overs already, got to time it right bowling out the other 7 from them.

 

[fredfertang]

Different game now, but glad there are no spinners operating

 

[91Jmay]

Taskin has clearly been told he is fast and has to bang it in. No where near quick enough to do that.

 

[ImpatientLime]

might be an idea to stop bowling short to buttler.

 

[Howe_zat]

That overhead tennis shot from Butler is exactly what Mortaza raised eyebrows with earlier. Maybe that's how you play here. Negates the bounce at least.

 

[Stace]

If Buttler doesn't end up being an ODI ATG middle order bat for England I'd be shocked.

Him and Root probably are in that side already. Won more games than most in their careers and still only young.

more a reflection on how dire historically we've been at this format.

Hey has anyone noticed that Nasir Hossain sounds a lot like Nasser Hussain?

Oh what fun we have.
