It continues on today. England 169 off 45 overs. NZ scored 165 yesterday.
BD's performance was questioned after we were bundled for 160-odd against West Indies. Looks like it was the BCCI pitches that should have been and continue to be the focus. However, since most sports writers are from india, you don't see that outrage. Can you imagine the outlash if the champions trophy was hosted by Bangladesh and the pitch was this sub standard?

With the recent decline in India's short lived (#2 ODI slot) status in the ODI standings, looks like BCCI is simply out there to (un)even the playing fields. After all, they have a history of making 'interesting' pitches to assist the home side. We all know how India used to (and still do on occasion) struggle in their away series/matches.
