Bangladesh v Sri Lanka | 2nd Test | Chittagong | 4th-8th February 2014

[Mr Consistent]

first :century FOR SHUMSUR REHMAN WELL PLAYED

 

[GenericBrand]

Lankans phixing

 

[Executioner]

You gotta feel for BD, it's hard to make progress when you play 2/3 tests a year..

Exactly my point

 

[GenericBrand]

Catch of a no ball lmao )

 

[Executioner]

Imrul was caught at point















but no-ball

 

[Energetic]

Pitch is not a road. Look at how variable the bounce is. Once you get in, you need to set yourself in otherwise it will be difficult for batsman. Don't forget in Sri Lanka batting, only the 2 seniors have performed on this wicket.

Day 5 will be really tough to bat on so Bangladesh must bat and bat till then.

Also, Tamim Iqbal better watch out for his place in side lol

 

[vandokkum]

Unbelievable fielding by SL and India today...

 

[Mr Consistent]

now lanka )

 

[Energetic]

No-balls and no-ball catch )

 

[vandokkum]

this is hillarious )

 

[Executioner]

) Vithanage

 

[Justcrazy]

Bangalis batting well here , good come back

 

[Executioner]

lovely shot from Shubho

 

[Energetic]

At least BD can attract more crowd for test matches than countries like NZ even though its still sparse.

 

[Mr Consistent]

good shot by rehman 4 runs

 

[GenericBrand]

Is the line playing tricks on the Lankan bowlers, this is becoming pathetic now. Spinners giving noballs now

 

[Executioner]

lol another no-ball by mendis

 

[Mr Consistent]

another )

 

[Energetic]

Mendis has always bowled no-balls so no surprises.

 

[vandokkum]

What are the odds of a catch being dropped and then in the same over catch taken by the same fielder off a no ball bowled by a spinner? One in a million I would think...

 

[Executioner]

Century by Imrul

 

[GenericBrand]

Ashraful scored 190 on his comeback innings, Imrul scoring a century on his lol

Both against the Lankans.

 

[Energetic]

Tamim Iqbal better watch out now

 

[Mr Consistent]

shot by kyes 4 runs

:century for kyes

 

[Executioner]

4byes

 

[Executioner]

You know you are rubbish when someone like Imrul with a test average in the teens is outscoring you

Time for Tamim to get kicked out

 

[Justcrazy]

what is the score , please update

 

[Executioner]

Out

Shubho gone

 

[Executioner]

what is the score , please update

232-2 from 61.2 overs

 

[GenericBrand]

Sigh, the trend of getting out after scoring a century still lingers, good innings nonetheless.

 

[Mr Consistent]

rehman

 

[Executioner]

: from momin

 

[Mr Consistent]

haq off the mark with 4 runs

 

[Executioner]

Sigh, the trend of getting out after scoring a century still lingers, good innings nonetheless.

Its not really about getting out after century, its about the way they become complacent after scoring a hundred.

Look at Sanga, he never relaxes

 

[Justcrazy]

Cicinfo is 15 mins slow

 

[Justcrazy]

Bangalis nneed to make sure they bat long here , it will not be easy batting last

 

[Executioner]

Bangalis nneed to make sure they bat long here , it will not be easy batting last

Dont think we will need to bat more than 50 overs 2nd time around

 

[Energetic]

BD ODI batting line-up for series and Asia Cup should be something like this:- Tamim, Imrul, Shamsur, Rahim, Shakib, Nasir, Mahmudullah, Gazi, Razzak, Mashrafe and any other pacer. Looks really strong for their favourite format.

 

[Executioner]

I can understand that we were a bowler down and our keeper + captain was injured, hence we let them score so many runs.

But Sri Lanka should have never let us get so many runs. Need to hang on to those catches and stop bowling no-balls

 

[Executioner]

Momin should look to bat till tea.

 

[Executioner]

 

[Executioner]

Need to bat out the whole day.

Mushy is sort of injured and mind not be fit by today

 

[Justcrazy]

is the current score 260 / 4 ?

 

[Justcrazy]

Can Shakib follow his 5 fer with a Ton

 

[Justcrazy]

Too many BD players getting injured in this game.

 

[Justcrazy]

:4

277 / 4

 

[Executioner]

The pitch is tricky for the batsman

Good to see this two playing slowly

 

[Executioner]

Can Shakib follow his 5 fer with a Ton

I sincerely hope.

It will be the 2nd time if he does it.

 

[Justcrazy]

New ball Taken , this should be interesting now.

 

[Justcrazy]

Shakib latches on to the opportunity , :4

Banglas must make sure they score at every oppertunity.

 

[Justcrazy]

:4

99 runs to avoid follow on.

 

[Mr Consistent]

last over before tea

 

[Justcrazy]

last over before Tea

 

[Mr Consistent]

Bangladesh 289/4 tea time

 

[Mr Consistent]

Bangladesh trail by 298 runs with 6 wickets remaining in the 1st innings

 

[Executioner]

SL has clawed their way back into the game but our 2 most senior players are in the crease so it won't be easy for Lankans

 

[Justcrazy]

That is the Tea.

Bangladesh trail by 298 runs with 6 wickets remaining in the 1st innings

[Madplayer]

SL has clawed their way back into the game but our 2 most senior players are in the crease so it won't be easy for Lankans

do u still hate mushfiq as much as u used to?

 

[Executioner]

do u still hate mushfiq as much as u used to?

Nope not anymore

This is because he has improved his mental and technical prowess. On the other hand, me as well as many other BD fans are starting to dislike Tamim very much. This has to do with Tamim's failure over the past few years. The last time he scored a test century was 4 years ago.

 

[Executioner]

340-5

Need to bat till lunch tomorrow and we will be safe

 

[Executioner]

Nasir hasn't played a risky shot as of yet, still managed to score at a good SR.

 

[leatherface58]

Pradeep is Lankan Rubel.

 

[Executioner]

Pradeep is Lankan Rubel.

Apparently he is the Lankan Rubel with a tendancy to bowl a no-ball every know and then

Bowled 12 already

 

[LongHorn]

That Fair and Handsome ad did him no good either

 

[LongHorn]

Can these 2 survive 20 over today?

That will give the chance to take the score to 500 by lunch tomorrow

 

[Mr Consistent]

350 up for bangla

 

[Mr Consistent]

for sakib

 

[Mr Consistent]

and next he is

 

[Mr Consistent]

good counter inning by nasir so far

 

[Executioner]

Nasir scored 33 from 41 with ease.

Shakib had no reason to be so aggressive with his partner looking good

 

[Executioner]

12 more runs to avoid the follow on
