Match Thread: 2nd Test Match: South Africa v Bangladesh I Mangaung Oval, Bloemfontein, South Africa I October 6 - October 10, 2017

I loved how the umpires trolled with Bangladesh batsmen and Kayes. Umpires and South Africans were thinking. "hmmm.....I wonder if we can get another Bangladesh wicket before end of day"...Kayes was pissed and he asked for play to step after the end of first over. the umpire declined and then the umpire called off play two balls later

I have always been huge fan of Kayes ever since he started playing in 2008. I was genuinely happy for him when he started converting his potential to a few tons here and there in test cricket. Those partnerships with Tamim were lovely and exactly what Bangladesh needed to solve the opening issues. for me personally, his best performance was in NZ 8/9 months ago when he was injured but he had the courage to go out and bat for his team. that was really heartwarming and encouraging. Ever since that performance, not sure what happened to him. he has been piss poor since then.

[nsuRocks]

a bouncer to the head, a sledge, then mominul goes for the hook shot and finds the fielder

The 2 wickets he took today, one was an ordinary delivery, good length outside off with no swing and no significant pace. Other one was a short delivery played like an idiot by Mini.
Rab said it himself yesterday, Bangladesh gave their wickets away

Bd looks pathetic waiting for miserable loss

[Rana Melb]

When this pain ll be over..

Too many passengers in TEST team

[nsuRocks]

Mushfiq closing his eyes only to get hit on the head hard which wasn't even a bouncer

[Rinathq]

that doesnt look good. hope he is ok

[nsuRocks]

After coming to South Africa mahmudulla, Soumya and Sabbirs batting avg fall into the 20s. Imruls avg was always in the mid 20s. Litons avg has also been in the 20s and still there despite the 70

[nsuRocks]

Mushfiq back up and batting again

[Rinathq]

look at the fielding...... to a top order batsman... humiliation at its best

[RealSports]

Shameful. This is what the team is like without its two best players. Even associates could beat this team of ours.

[Rinathq]

Glad he didnt score more...but for haturi, this might still be enough

[nsuRocks]

Imrul reaching his threshold level of 30 runs and loses concentration. Got to give it to the guy who has the technique of a tailender- a lot of heart even if he is not test match quality

[nsuRocks]

look at Olivier: into his 9th over and still hitting perfect lengths at 140km
