Does Brendan Taylor give Bangladesh fans nightmares?
Hi everyone, I hope everyone is well but I know there will be a lot of BD fans disappointed with the result of the 1st Test. I can assure you there are a lot of happy Zimbabwe supporters though.
Zimbabwe will have their tails up after this huge win, and Bangladesh will be intent on levelling the Test series and putting up a good showing in the ODIs where they have been formidable opponents for Zimbabwe for over a decade.
I am looking forward to the rest of the series.
A question for BD fans though, does Brendan Taylor give you nightmares? The big innings that come to mind are:
- that ODI in 2006 where he hit the last ball of the match off Mashrafe for six to give Zimbabwe victory (and contributing to a 3-2 series win)
- then in 2011 he scored 71 and 105 not out to lead Zimbabwe to their first victory since returning to Test cricket
- and in this Test match he put his name in the history books by scoring 171 and 102 not out.
