I'm trying to remember the last time the Windies made a team follow on....

Is it just me, or has Shakib gained weight? :S

Pity that...I thought Bangladesh had a good shout for lbw against Shiv.

No he didn't.. He actually lost weight and he looks pale nowadays.. I think he should put up little more weight.. specially should build up some muscle..

Sohel · #**1033** November 13, 2012, 05:27 AM

At this rate, Windies would bat until lunch tomorrow and score at least 500.

Didn't he eat some 30 shrimps in South Africa?

Maybe he has put on a bit but you can notice that he clears the boundary rope more often with the bat..

Sohel · #**1035** November 13, 2012, 05:29 AM

Ramdin gets his 50. I think he'll score his 3rd test 100 tomorrow.

al Furqaan · #**1036** November 13, 2012, 05:30 AM

this is atrocious bowling...the pacers should be barred from the test team for life.

This was a pretty horrible day. I hope BD can bounce back on day 2 the way the aussies did. Maybe I'm expecting too much?

Roni_uk · #**1043** November 13, 2012, 05:36 AM

innings for Chanderpaul to score 300+

Sohel · #**1044** November 13, 2012, 05:36 AM

Well, at least the first session belonged to us.

al Furqaan · #**1045** November 13, 2012, 05:43 AM

Well the Mirpur wicket is usually flatter than ZACS...no clue how SANS pitch will play. But we have to to somehow try and get them out under 500. Only way for that to happen is for SG to take a couple and Shakib to get his flow back. Rajib and Rubel are total wastes...can't bat and can't bowl. We're already 2 men down.

Its going to come down to Tamim, Shakib, and Mushfiqur to bat as big as they possibly can with Nasir, SN, Junaid, Naeem, and Riyad chipping in whatever they can. We have to aim to score 400+ runs and make them bat again.

I think so....but our selectors don't have the mindset for making a test team.... They pick almost ODI team for test match...+/- Shahdat is the difference between two teams....according to them...playing a test match with 3 specialist bowlers of atrocious quality...
