Bangladesh v England | 1st Test | Chittagong | Oct 20-24, 2016 | Day 4

[Watsupdoc]

Bangladesh following like a Pack of cards here

 

[Big Mac]

Oh Bangladesh

 

[Markhor]

I hope BD produces similar pitches in future.

They've in the past played for "respectable draws" on phattas - but if they want to progress up the Test rankings they need to learn how to win in pressure situations like this in tough conditions.

 

[Robert]

Come on Broady, wrap it up tonight!

 

[street cricketer]

Bangladesh tail

 

[Markhor]

Feel for BD fans, a defeat here is gonna be very hard to take.

Sabbir isn't getting any support from these tailenders.

 

[JattMaula]

Sabbir sher, please go in Super Saiyan mode.

Right now!

 

[Dios]

Shabbir should just go for it.

 

[shaz619]

Bangladesh following like a Pack of cards here

So sad, it's like watching a horror movie except the big bad monster actually ends up winning this time

 

[street cricketer]

So last wicket this?

 

[MMHS]

Went with 9 players - don't know what was the purpose of those 2 pacers on this track?

 

[Robert]

Great to see Robert come out of retirement

Shh, I'm lurking.

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

Bangladesh tail

Whichever team I start rooting for, somehow forget to play basic cricket


What is this UmerAkmalesque curse man

The St George's flag flying over a subcontinental country again

 

[Big Mac]

WHAT ARE YOU DOING SABBIR?!?!

Taking a single off the first ball is nuts.

 

[Adil_94]

i do feel a bit sorry for Bangladesh though. They battled so well on this track.

 

[HitWicket]

Sabbir going for the average booster?

 

[James]

This is like a 1920s tail end. Bangladeshi bowlers needed to do more batting practice for situations like this. As far as I know the first time that last guy got a bat on ball in the whole match was just then when he got out bat-pad.

 

[Adil_94]

Sabbir showing his inexperience here.

 

[shaz619]

[MENTION=46929]shaz619[/MENTION] Rule Britannia.

The St George's flag flying over a subcontinental country again

The Raj showing its might once again

 

[street cricketer]

What the heck is Sabbir doing?

 

[JattMaula]

Sabbir sher! Why are you taking singles!

 

[shaz619]

What the heck is Sabbir doing?

You were right about the inexperience, if anything they've not been in such a situation before

 

[James]

Did I hear a rumour that Bangladesh won't be sending out an eleventh batsman?

 

[MMHS]

Sabbir showing his inexperience here.

Actually, at one point he has to trust his partner - in Test, you can block single in last 2 balls by bowling wide.

 

[hamzie]

) taking the single so dumb

Lose BD!!!!!!

 

[shaz619]

Sabbir sher! Why are you taking singles!

He was giving Taijul due confidence

 

[street cricketer]

Rahman is nuts.

 

[Big Mac]

He's done it again!

 

[shaz619]

Did I hear a rumour that Bangladesh won't be sending out an eleventh batsman?

I highly doubt that even if it were true, if BD have a sniff they'd send him out there with a broken arm and leg

 

[street cricketer]

He was giving Taijul due confidence

Probably expecting Taijul Islam to finish.

 

[HitWicket]

I highly doubt that even if it were true, if BD have a sniff they'd send him out there with a broken arm and leg

I heard he'd been admitted to hospital due to illness or something.

 

[shaz619]

Probably expecting Taijul Islam to finish.

He's going to smash a 6 to win the game similar to how MS Dhoni movie ended

 

[shaz619]

I heard he'd been admitted to hospital due to illness or something.

Oh damn, that's a shame; England on the brink then

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

He was giving Taijul due confidence

will be a very good senior plus it also shows he as a big heart and want his partner to have all the confidence in the world

 

[MMHS]

Rahman is nuts.

That can be done with 10-20 left not 50. I watched Adams, Inzi & Wasim chasing with tail - the gave strike to partners initially.

 

[street cricketer]

Somebody get that Shafiul guy to the field along with the iv drip.

 

[JattMaula]

Please note that Sabbir's given title of "sher" is stripped away due to some un-sherlike behavior.

 

[shaz619]

will be a very good senior plus it also shows he as a big heart and want his partner to have all the confidence in the world

Indeed my friend, what a team player

 

[hamzie]

) takes 2 runs

cmon please pay for it

 

[Saurav]

Sabbir doing a Steve Waugh

 

[hamzie]

is it 1 wicket needed to win or 2?

 

[Big Mac]

WHAT ARE YOU DOING MAN?!

 

[street cricketer]

That can be done with 10-20 left not 50. I watched Adams, Inzi & Wasim chasing with tail - the gave strike to partners initially.

I can understand if the partner is able. But these tailenders look like Chris Martin's students.

 

[Abdullah719]

This is shambolic by Sabbir. Absolutely insane.

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

Meanwhile in other news....Azhar and Sami taking a leaf out of Late Hanif Muhammad's batting tactics. Going at 1 RPO

 

[HitWicket]

Appears as though I was wrong about the number 11!

 

[Adil_94]

the power of the Raj is too strong for the weakest of all the races of India.

 

[hamzie]

omg he did not just do that

 

[imshally81]

Bhai kis ko support karna hey...
England or
Bangladesh?

 

[hamzie]

nooooooooo what the helllllll

 

[shaz619]

I heard he'd been admitted to hospital due to illness or something.

HitWicket brother, he will return to the field in Terminator form like this

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

I have a feeling those helmet 5 runs are the ones which are gonna cost us the match, plus Shakib being an idiot in the 1st innings.

 

[hamzie]

Bhai kis ko support karna hey...
England or
Bangladesh?

england yaar obviously

Never go for BD/IND

 

[Big Mac]

Will he take an early single again?

 

[MMHS]

12 runs better with a bit of confidence for both - it never works like bang, bang. Taijul has to stay & he has a bat at hand.

 

[imshally81]

england yaar obviously

Never go for BD/IND

Ok Boss

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

Sabbir playing a blinder like Ashrafool

 

[Watsupdoc]

What is Sabbir doing? I think he wants Taijul to do the 'night watch man' duty

 

[shaz619]

Will he take an early single again?

) Pretty much everyone

 

[HitWicket]

9 over spell for Broad, that's crazy given the conditions.

 

[Speedster1]

Don't worry guys there's a reason why Taijul was not out in 1st inns

 

[imshally81]

 

[MMHS]

I can understand if the partner is able. But these tailenders look like Chris Martin's students.

Better than Walshi who has seen through 2 better attacks to win a Test by 1 wicket. Sabbir can't afford to be targeted 5 balls every over.

 

[hamzie]

holy molyyyyyyyyy this tajul guy

 

[street cricketer]

Appears as though I was wrong about the number 11!

Is he coming to bat?

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

Rashid can win the match for us

 

[imshally81]

Yaar.. Kal Bangladesh mein chutti na ho jaye....

 

[MMHS]

Both match score was 247/8

 

[hamzie]

what the hell is happening

 

[HitWicket]

Is he coming to bat?

Fairly sure he was on camera a minute ago? I've barely seen him before so don't take my word for it though!

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

we have this match in the bags

 

[Big Mac]

When Taijul hits the ball in the air...

 

[hamzie]

ok enough is enough. lets call it a day.
come back tomorrow

 

[street cricketer]

What a batsman Taijul Islam is!

 

[MMHS]

we have this match in the bags

No, I told you - margin will be below 45. You can''t win a Test blowing 6/27

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

we have this match in the bags

Considering this was such an intense encounter I guess you duly need more than one

 

[imshally81]

Stumps
Now move to Pak vs WI...

 

[JattMaula]

Oh... It's On!
