Bangladesh v New Zealand l 1st Test l Chittagong | Oct 9-13, 2013

[Justcrazy]

106 / 1

after 40 overs.

 

[Justcrazy]

BD need to make competitive pitches. These kind of pitches will kill the interest in Test cricket.

 

[Energetic]

Why did Bangladesh prepare a non-spinning pitch though? I hope they lose now.

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

What a borefest, I am watching Jalil's movie 'what is love'

Bye Folks hkib

 

[Justcrazy]

113 / 1

 

[Justcrazy]

BD bowling tightly now. They hope that Batsmen play some false shots.

 

[Energetic]

Boring match. Easy runs. My advice is to not watch it. Bangladesh are a joke! don't even play to strengths.

 

[Justcrazy]

a boundary after long time.

 

[Mamoon]

Rutherford still living off his debut innings

 

[Executioner]

Would it hurt to prepare a turning wicket?

you can't blame the team if you prepare such a flat track

 

[Energetic]

you can't blame the team if you prepare such a flat track

And why didn't they prepare a turning pitch? I tell you why because a draw is a big deal than a win to Bangladesh and living of that drawn test against Sri Lanka. Either this will be a boring draw or Bangladesh handed the win to New Zealand.

 

[Energetic]

Strip Bangladesh of their test status. Just making a mockery to the game. BCB are just scared simple as that even against New Zealand.

 

[Space Cat]

Soft dismissal Fulton. At least Ross won't waste any time scoring.

 

[chaiwala]

Fulton bats like a tail-ender. No finesse in his batting at all.

 

[Space Cat]

Fulton is better off batting with aggression. He can hit the ball a mile.

 

[Justcrazy]

186 / 2

 

[Justcrazy]

Final session to start now.

 

[Justcrazy]

good shot by taylor.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Whats the score?

 

[Justcrazy]

Kane 77 not out , looking good for a ton here.

 

[Justcrazy]

Whats the score?

196 / 2 after 67 overs

 

[Justcrazy]

Taylor can be dangerous in such situations.

as I write there comes a

 

[Justcrazy]

It all will boil down to how BD bat here , can they draw or not.

 

[Justcrazy]

Partnership 34 runs already , looking dangerous.

 

[Space Cat]

Hopefully Ross Taylor gets going here. He hasn't scored much vs Bangladesh.

 

[Justcrazy]

223 / 2 after 70 overs

 

[Justcrazy]

Abdur Razzak is not suited for Test cricket. He should be in shorter formats only.

 

[Justcrazy]

232 / 2

 

[Justcrazy]

Williamson 6 away from hundred.

 

[Justcrazy]

williamson 2 away from Ton

236 / 2

 

[Justcrazy]

100 by Williamson , his 4th Test Ton

 

[Justcrazy]

Razzak strikes.

248 / 3

 

[Executioner]

At the end of the day, the score is 280-5. The game is balance.

If 2 set batsman were in the crease then it would have been advantage to NZ but now that Baz has departed its back to ground zero because the 2 new batsman have to consolidate

A draw is likely though unless NZ or BD batsman commit hara kiri. With BD you can expect some sucidle batting, and as for NZ you never know. They have a history of being bundled out under pressure. Turning out to be quite a contest

Sorry mate. Would have loved to attend the match at the stadium but my exams are not 3 weeks away.

I only watched 1 hour of the match on TV. Rest of the time just followed in CI.

 

[Energetic]

These tosses needs to be recorded closely. Just don't trust them for some reason. Anyway, Despite the last wickets, it has been New Zealand day. This is a big test for Bangladesh otherwise people will question their test status yet again if they flop with the bat on their favourite wicket and cannot at least draw this.

Having Mominul was a mistake. Too many left handers in Bangladesh side and New Zealand have left arm seamers.

Tamim/Mominul/Shakib - Thats only 3 left handed batsman

I dont think its a bad play to have plenty of lefties, because it would ensure left-right combination. And also these guys would be useful against Sodhi the leggie

 

[Aman]

NZ set to resume 280/5 in about an hours time.

You know leggies love bowling to left handers, I personally enjoy bowling to left handers, i like it when they go for a drive and i rattle their stumps with my awesome spin bowling

Game's over, I think the kiwis have already scored enough runs. We will bundle out for less than two hundred against their pace attack.

 

[Aman]

2 quick wickets..

Need to score at least 350.

 

[Justcrazy]

Good start by BD here

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

Getting out to Rubel and Razzak is a crime

 

[Justcrazy]

Never expected Razzak to pick wickets here . he has surprised me.

 

[Aman]

Getting out to Rubel and Razzak is a crime

Well one was on debut and the other is a bowler who can bat a bit.

 

[Justcrazy]

NZ can get to 350 here still. The Tail is no mug with bat.

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

Boult is playing? Oh somebody save us now, we are doomed

 

[Justcrazy]

These two are not bad with bat. BD need to be careful here.

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

They can reach 400 quite easily, Watling is a class batsman, I would declare scoring 400 as that's more than enough with the bowlers the Kiwis got.

I have a feeling Bruce is going to pick a fiver

 

[Justcrazy]

:4

300 up

 

[GenericBrand]

Kiwis sponsored by Ford?

 

[Space Cat]

Poor Rubel barely gets any wickets and then he ruins one by overstepping lol.

 

[Executioner]

Well one was on debut and the other is a bowler who can bat a bit.

can your players stop making a bowler of ishant quality look like Anderson? maybe I am a bit too harsh on ishant.l

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

Bracewell is in fine form, he scored a 104* vs Srilanka A and 96 against Inida A, he's the dangerman here

 

[Space Cat]

Sodhi can bat too. We should still look for 400 here.

 

[Justcrazy]

Partnership 24 runs here.

 

[Executioner]

even lady luck does not want to see rubella get wickets haha

 

[Space Cat]

Pretty disappointed in Anderson. If hes going to bat at 6 in the test team he can't poke at wide balls like that.

He was good enough to play First Class cricket at 16 so the talent is there.

 

[Justcrazy]

307 / 7 ( 100 overs )

 

[Justcrazy]

Bracewell 24 no

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

I love it everytime when someone bashes Shakib, i hate his arrogance. Come on Doug bash him some more

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

Doug Bracewell looks well built, he can knock out five of our players in one punch

Dabanggg

 

[Justcrazy]

NZ tail batting well here

 

[Justcrazy]

325 / 7

[Ashraful_Rox]

43 run partnership, well played lads

[Ashraful_Rox]

Don't get confused they are both the same person, i got fooled once

 

[Justcrazy]

334 / 7

 

[Justcrazy]

NZ will be on top with 400 here

 

[Aman]

Should look to score enough so we only need to bat once i.e. 500+

 

[Aman]

Wow that came against the run of play..

 

[Mamoon]

NZ need to move on from TTF Fulton.

Average of 29 and strike rate of 42.

urghhh.

Makes Azhar Ali look like Dravid

 

[Justcrazy]

Gazi finally strikes.

 

[Aman]

School mate batting now

 

[Aman]

Nice shot to get off the mark

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

Sodhi is an Indian oh well now he will score a century

 

[Aman]

Don't worry get them with the ball

 

[Executioner]

just 1 more wicket. great comeback

 

[Executioner]

Don't worry get them with the ball
