And the “at least Vince would have scored about 20 each I nines compared to Ballance” comment
Didn’t see that coming. Well batted Woakes & Rashid, but some odd captaincy, can only assume he overbowled his best spinner.
Can they grind out a few more? Key & Cork were chucking down Commentators curses for the last 20 minutes
England achieve a first innings lead against all the odds.
Woakes and Rashid doing the business
Double Nelson & we get a comedy moment with a get out of jail free card for Woakes who plays a horrid shot to a horrid ball & it’s marginally ruled a no ball over waist height.
Lead of 4 now
As expected New Ball does the trick but great effort from Woakes.
Ansari & Moen to open for England? In about 2 balls time I’d guess
Not far off D_P we have a lead of 24 runs could all be over by teatime tomorrow the way things are going
They take new ball with their spinners turns sideways 2 wickets in 2 overs.
We open with Finn who goes for 8 off his 1st over 
Bangladesh 85 - 2 a lead of 61 drinks being taken.
Again think England d have bowled poorly at the top order.
At least 1 loose ball per over let them score at >5 an over. No way they should have let them reach 117-2
Funny how a test match abroad doesn’t seem as important as one at home.
It is to us already abroad

Surely you remember the days when you only got the result when the team returned on the boat
I’m still awaiting a telegram from the San Siro…

Moeen gets the breakthrough,
Bangladesh 200-4 lead by 176
243 -6 Bangladesh lead by 219
Bangladesh 276 - 8 Lead by252
Bangladesh 276 - 9 Lead by252
Hmmm.
We know that we will be 36-3 at the very best so that is a lot of runs for Woakes Rashid & Finn to score
Bangladesh 296 all out lead by 272
2 and half days to get the runs
This is a possibility as long as they dont get out
