1st Test, England vs Bangladesh

[Stumpy Tim]

Poor fucker. Good innings though

 

[CHAPPERS]

Playing back to a left arm spinner again.

 

[Trigger]

99? Rubbish!

 

[Gwylan]

How many times has KP got out in the 90s? I think that's at least his third occasion

 

[The Wizard]

ha ha !

The commentator said it is five now. Apparently with ten more runs spread across those innings he would have five more centuries!

Just looked it up, the second stat is wrong. He has a 96, 92, 94, 97 and 99. In addition he often gets out soon after his century. Scores of 100, 109, 101, 100 and 102. Seems he has mental issues around his century.

 

[CHAPPERS]

He should have tried to slog it for a six, eh Keaton?

Are you being sarcastic now?

England close on 374-3

Captain Cook 158*

Not the best insertion in test match history then!

I reckon Bangladesh have put a few bob on England inflicting an innings defeat on them - no other reason comes to mind.....

Bell and Collingwood smashing the ball to all sorts of places round the ground

Typical Sky, yesterday it was on Sports One, today it's on Sports Two.

 

[Mendoza]

Collingwood out after skying one

 

[fleet]

Why did we not make them follow on? What are we going to set as atarget now? 500, 550, more?

 

[Beach Hut]

Was thinking that myself, seems a silly decision unless Cook feels they will be worn out fielding again.

 

[CHAPPERS]

I would think there are a few reasons. Carberry and Pietersen will get some more time in the middle this way, the bowlers can have a rest and a lead of 500 would most likely mean the Banglas will crumble second innings when the pitch will be even more helpful to Swann.

Ithink the late stand that was ended by a run out probably took away the confidence that we can get them out cheaply. But teh pitch seems Ok so I am sure we could bat last and win, maybe the bowlers did need a rest though.

65-1 cook gone
