I said few minutes ago. It isn't good to be aggressive.

Bro, time is not a problem here. They CAN take their time ANYtime. No need for "quick" runs. We are trying to save the match first!

Rabz · #**2604** November 15, 2012, 01:57 AM

Oh, another one that wasn't converted.
Shakib is soon going to push Bashar aside for being Mr 50.
But he is way better than that.

WarWolf · #**2605** November 15, 2012, 01:57 AM

Darun Sammy is on fire.

Gowza · #**2606** November 15, 2012, 01:58 AM

boundary for mushy

RazabQ · #**2607** November 15, 2012, 01:58 AM

Mushy holding the bat like it's a stick of dynamite and Sammy is lobbing hand grenades

Maysun · #**2608** November 15, 2012, 01:58 AM

Come on, Mushfiqur!

Play like a captain!

deshimon · #**2609** November 15, 2012, 01:58 AM

I have confidence on Naeem. He can stay minimum until his century.

Tigers_eye · #**2610** November 15, 2012, 01:58 AM

alright under 40 runs now.

RazabQ · #**2611** November 15, 2012, 01:59 AM

finally middled one

Gowza · #**2612** November 15, 2012, 01:59 AM

hope mushy finds some form here, might have been better to bring nasir in first....

Nadim · #**2613** November 15, 2012, 01:59 AM

30 more runs to avoid follow on?? Hobe to dadara?!?

Mushy joining the party lol, looks our rr wont decrease.

WarWolf · #**2615** November 15, 2012, 02:01 AM

I have a feeling that Riyad will score some runs today on this flat runway of Dubai airport and confirm his place in the team for next 10 tests.

RazabQ · #**2616** November 15, 2012, 02:01 AM

BTW Sohel: re Naeem. Don't say I didn't call it.

Watching Tamim and Shakib throw away their wickets like absolute headless morons, I would expect Naeem to play with much better temperament. Hopefully, he gets to the three figure. He deserves it.

Come on, Naeem! Save us.

Bhai, it's not easy to create a batsman for test...specially when he comes from our domestic circuit. Experience is very important to create that temperament and skill to cope up with these quality bowling....

So, it's always better to try exhaustively with the experienced guys...we wouldn't have got Chokka Nayeem playing at #4 in test match. Give Junaid and others some time...Anamul or Mominul will surely struggle here, if not for temperament but surely for skill standards. Let them play more and you can give them exposure through ODIs... That will make their life easier too. Can't debut a player in the toughest format without preparing him...be sure, whatever is the surface, they will struggle for one thing or the other...that can easily turn them into Nazimuddin and Junaids...

I acknowledge their talent and skill, but let them be prepared ...

with the way the bowling has gone so far this test i think nasir and riyad will be fighting for a spot in the XI of the next test, whichever makes the most runs will be picked.

no he didn't. He was on his front foot long before the ball was pitched. Rampaul adjusted the angle on that short ball. He was in a noman's land. That happened so many times before for him. Habitual and didn't fix the problem. Technically flawed.

10 Test?? If we continue to play a test series in every 12 months, than its 4/5 yrs....don't think he will last that long.

I would love him to prove me wrong tho

is it too early to think about how much our lead will be ????

we still have three of our spinning all rounder quartet to bat

shivfan · #**2624** November 15, 2012, 02:04 AM

It does seem to me that maybe Narine is over-rated...comparisons with Ajantha Mendis might be more appropriate than comparisons with Murali.

Maysun · #**2625** November 15, 2012, 02:04 AM

Naeem has faced almost an entire session. 192 balls. Well done. Keep going!
