Mullah does it in style !!
Good win to have on the bag and good way to start the tour.

Good going boys.

Come next match now.

[BANFAN]

12.6 White to Mahmudullah, no run. MISSED STUMPING. down the pitch but hits McCann's pads

School boys gave few chances.... Main team won't.....

[Rabz]

Mind you guys, we are playing the opposition here.
We are playing ourselves.

Irrespective of the opponent players, its about our boys getting used to the local playing conditions and thats why it is called a practice match.

You mean the main team never misses a catch or overthrows or misses an stumping chance ???

I thought even the mighty Aussies did during their heyday.

[BANFAN]

Van Der Merwe.... Is this guy a SA recruit??

[Nadim]

3:08 PM A little worryingly that was supposed to be the strongest opposition today for Bangladesh. But seven of this Ireland team will have a chance to improve in the second game, for the NCU Select. Balbirnie, Eaglestone, Poynter and van der Merwe, all internationals, drop out and will be replaced by Gary Kidd, Kyle McCallan, Johnny Thompson and Civil Service North professional Griffin Nieuwoudt. At least he will be entertaining, if he gets going.

so few of the guys from this game will play in the 2nd.

[Roni_uk]

Nah - not happy with that... we should have finished in 10 overs :P

I really want to see Riyad and Naseer opening, followed by Tamim and Ash.

[Maysun]

Thought Tamim would play a brutal innings Same guys are performing. This is worrying.

Ireland are making sure that Bangladesh are undercooked for the real matches.

[Rabz]

Good luck Bangladesh!
