we are fucked
Time for the “clearly we should not have rotated our bowlers” comment.
One bad session by them and we lost the test.
Which is basically what Twitter has been saying
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
