Match Thread: 2nd Test, Bangladesh vs. West Indies at SANS, Khulna; November 21-25, 2012

[Nadim]

Well Done Abul

[al-Sagar]

387 all out ............

good recovery considering the position we were after the fall of 8 wickets, but we never should have been at the position we got into.

now time to bowl well and look for a handy lead.

[kazis2007]

387 all out.

[M.H.Rubel]

I was just hoping for a 400. Still it is the 9th highest total for Bangladesh.

It was a good delivery , well played Abul.

[Ajfar]

If we can get rid of Gayle, Chanderpal and Powell early, we are in business.

[Antora]

Good going by Abul. Would've liked Riyad to get a ton. Oh well. Let's hope Abul can maybe get some quick wickets

[DMan]

BD fans praying for WI collapse for less than 150.

[Dilscoop]

Yesterday I was praying that Riyad get a 50, which would've meant that we reached a decent total. But in the end Abul got a 100! And I'm more than happy with the final score. 400 would've been a mental challenge for the WI, but this aint all that bad.

But those that get greedy ... SMH at them.

[M.H.Rubel]

Riyad is a back boneless player. He never tried to back up Abul today. He should have taken more strikes.

[M.H.Rubel]

That was an excellent fightback from Bangladesh yesterday but has taken West Indies less than half hour to run through the lower-order. The hosts will still be happy with their score of 387, but the big question now is whether they have the bowling to test the West Indian batsmen, we will have the answers soon, beginning in about 10 minutes from now. . . . . . . .http://www.espncricinfo.com/banglade...ch/587470.html

[al Furqaan]

387 is slightly more than acceptable...could be a decent score..regardles it means we're not out of th game yet.

Guess we'll have to wait and see for what Abul can do with the new ball

Then what do you say about our other guys? Not Riyad's fault that the other batsmen threw their wickets away yesterday and put them in this spot.

[Dilscoop]

We should be batting right now with 4/5 wickets in hand. This pitch is so delicious! WI will take care of this by tomo and take a lead.

[Crickbang]

Modon Mushfiq where is your shortleg? He's trying to turn the ball to the onside and you don't place a shortleg fielder there? Mogoje ki ase Allah jane! Let Riyad run the field.

[Habib]

Abul on.

The context in question is different dude. Riyad being the "batsman" should have shielded Abul for the first few overs.

[Rifat]

spanking time

[Nadim]

hahah Raju no chinta bap...wide

[Habib]

Oops wide.

Dude, riyad nd abul gave us a respectable total and played brilliantly. I think we should cut him some slack

Ya understood but calling him back boneless after yesterday? That's too harsh.

[Rifat]

bad ploy to bring in Abul Hassan immediately, he may be a bit fatigued, should have brought rubel instead.
