we bangali dream too much....4 wickets left...but we thought we can add 100 more runs.....i knew its not easy....i had the feeling cuz bd tail usually rap up very quickly.....and it happened
now in bowling....we can manage, i think only 2/3 wickets......so the result will be kinda big....BD lost by 7/8 wickets?.....
my question is...if this happens.....Will u be disappointed?.....

I'm not disappointed at all. It was a very good game and we performed really well but you know a win would have made me jump up and down on the floor. Wish our batsman batted more sensibly in the first innings, anyways I think Dav is gonna take care of the batters and we can certainly look forward to a win or a draw in the next test.
Barvo tigers, we are proud of you.

I don't know why everyone wants to win without going through the logical next step - draws!
I am incredibly dissapointed that Bangladesh did not force a draw in this match by playing out more of the first session. That would have been enough, although I know playing 2.5 hours for our tail is a very big ask, we just thought they would repeat what they did in the first innings.
It wasn't about scoring 100 more runs, fewer runs would have salvaged the game. England could have still won between after lunch, but would have to lose a bunch more wickets. And our bowlers would have bowled with more heart than they did in the second innings - they were deflated.
I am more interested in stopping the losing streak than winning right now. But we have come a long ways since the humilation of the World Cup, this is all good.

Rafiq bhai, I agree with your post but on one point, I will have to disagree, the next step doe snot have to be a draw.
However, the way this game was played out, it should have been planned for a draw. They needed to hang in tight until lunch or closer to lunch and then allow England to make a game of it, they would have gone for a win and hence giving us the opportunity to strike early with some descipline and luck.
