Can someone explain how Brathwaite once took 6/29?
It was even more wtf at the time because I think he had something like one First Class wicket... but for context, it was the third innings of a Test in Sri Lanka in which the quicks only took 11 out of 40 wickets, and three of the wickets were tailenders in a batting lineup that had Herath at eight.

Looking at the puffs of dust I reckon this might be a decent enough total at this stage. Bangladesh did very well making runs quickly in the morning.

Brathwaite turning some dangerously, I can see WI having significant issues here. That said he's bowled noticeably better than Chase.

Thanks God we've got a decent seam attack, because our spinners are well below standard. Braithwaite was turning the ball reasonably and yet Bishoo took 1 expensive wicket? Warrican is back after a long time and was ok so I can give him a break. But Bishoo has bowled terribly all year in some helpful conditions.

Gabriel was superb with the old ball. He really has become a world class bowler. Gabriel, Roach and Holder is an excellent seam attack in any conditions IMHO. Shame the spinners are so ordinary.

Still, I think Bangladesh have got around par considering the spin on offer.

Good from Mominul yesterday. Admittedly Bishoo was a bit loose yesterday, but by looking at the scorecard it seems Warrican bowled a tight line.

Bishop has Panesar syndrome. Plays every match like it's the same. I find it nearly unacceptable that someone with his experience had improved so little.

I think this is a good, maybe even slightly over par total by Bangladesh. The dropped catches, no-balls and general bad bowling in the first half of yesterday let them off.
