Nightwatch man for 2nd innings

How many hours did we have to bat on the third day? Is there any reason why they didn't send in a nightwatch man to bat after the two quick wickets?

Very good thinking. However, is there anyone reliably capable of staying on the crease for, say, 10 overs?

Fab,

All(without Sujon) is capable to play 10 overs atleast.

Hi Kalboishakh,
Let me calculate.
I omit Sujan along with three tel-enders(Masri,Rafiq,Alamgir)
Then 7 players left.
SO, 7 x 10 =70 overs but the unfortunate thing was that we only lasted for 33 overs.

Thank You
Shafi
