[Simulation]

8/409

123.4 Navarene to Pollock, OUT, Tossed up outside off, Pollock pushes forward in defense, gets an inside edge on the hip and it rolls back with just enough force to dislodge one bail

Pollock b.Navarene 34(99b)

138.5 Ehsan to Hall, OUT, Bowled him round his legs, the pitch is certainly taking spin now, into the footmarks outside leg, Hall tries to sweep and the ball crashed into legstump. Much needed breakthrough

Hall lbw b.Ehsan 31(84b)

[Simulation]

139.2 Navarene to Boje, OUT, Plumb! It was the arm ball pitched on a good length on leg, stayed down a fraction but went straight on, Boje expecting it to turn padded up and it wasn't a hard decision for the umpire

BanglaCricket need 337 runs on the fifth day to win with 8 wickets in hand

[Ehsan]

We gotta bat out the day very carefully. I am just looking to save the test if we can't win. Said that, the score looks achievable to me with our hardwork and dedication.

Mueid played an amazing dominent, swashbuckling innings but failed to get the support required as wickets fell at regular intervals at the other end. He singlehandedly got the RRR down to something quite achievable and looked like he'd pull it off with a stable partner in Oracle. Mueid however didn't trust the wicketkeeper-vice captain and threw his wicket away in search of glory and fell just short of his double century.

[bourny3]

Great innings Mueid what a player. Bad luck boys we got very close but so far.

[Mueid]

My bad luck. Couldn't make the team win either.
