India (376 & 287/4d) crush Bangladesh (149 & 234) in 1st Test by 280 runs, taking 1-0 lead in 2-Test match series

[BouncerGuy]

Only Jaiswal looking good atm.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Nahid has a quick arm action. It helps him generate speed

 

[Dhakar Pola]

This humid weather is Chennai is not good for pacers to have longer spells.
BCCI should have rest Bumrah for the atleast 1st test.

should have rest him for the series if you ask me

 

[Champ_Pal]

Pant looks extremely casual at the crease.

 

[Ahmed216]

No wonder Pakistan lost to BD.

Yes they are doing well in India too so far. BD are a resurgent nation

 

[jnaveen1980]

There was this guy Shodat hossain who helped BD skittle India for 200 odd runs once. He took fifer or something. One of his 128 kph bouncer knocked the helmet of Dravid lol as it didn't arrive. But he bowled well though in the first innings

 

[Ahmed216]

Pant and Jazball are two of the most dangerous batsmen in world cricket. These two will make life difficult for Australia later this year

 

[jnaveen1980]

Pant's strike rate at home is 90 in Tests? lol Only now I found when Athar said that

 

[Imran Hasan]

Missing Shoriful badly in this pitch.

 

[Dhakar Pola]

Kohli gone. Good toss to win.

yeah, bumrah would have been very tough to face

 

[Champ_Pal]

BD has an excellent upcoming Pace trio. Will be handful in all conditions. All 3 of them are tall and can generate good bounce.

 

[Dhakar Pola]

Missing Shoriful badly in this pitch.

yes, big miss, atleast in the first session of the test

 

[Champ_Pal]

Yes they are doing well in India too so far. BD are a resurgent nation

For all the jokes that were made on BD bowlers over the years, they finally found some brilliant talent to extract revenge.

Afghanistan has Faizal, Omarzai

 

[jnaveen1980]

Rohit will come alive in the next Test. Usually he takes one test

 

[Imran Hasan]

Need to break this partnership otherwise this due will score century partnership pretty fast.

 

[Dhakar Pola]

For all the jokes that were made on BD bowlers over the years, they finally found some brilliant talent to extract revenge.

talent was there always, but there were no system so bowlers used to get lost after one or two flashes of briliance. now there is a system which encourages fast bowlers.

Talent was always there...but now They're reaping rewards for what they've achieved as a nation finally

 

[Champ_Pal]

Afghans have very good bowling too.

It’s unbelievable that the traditional pace kings of Pakistan look like the weakest bowling unit in subcontinent.

 

[Varun]

That flopshow Gill fails again.

 

[Champ_Pal]

Whoever is behind this deserves a pay rise.

Then that pace quartet of Srilanka in England.

 

[Imran Hasan]

Was Nahid Rana complaining of hot weather?

 

[Vikram1989]

Afghans have very good bowling too.

It’s unbelievable that the traditional pace kings of Pakistan look like the weakest bowling unit in subcontinent.

Neither pace nor spin

 

[jnaveen1980]

Finally Bangladesh has found a formula. I know Mortaza was there for them. But their first and second change were not consistent.

 

[Dhakar Pola]

Whoever is behind this deserves a pay rise.

It was otis gibson first who actually took care of the fast bowlers, encouraged them, put the current system in place. Allan Donald then came and worked with the current batch and really fine tuned them

 

[Ahmed216]

Indian batsmen won't spare you Rana if you're erratic

 

[jnaveen1980]

Pant was over weight when he had the accident. He has lost a bit of weight for sure. Does it make him to run too many singles?

 

[jnaveen1980]

They should try spinners. CHepauk is known for helping spinners.

 

[Devadwal]

Dhol nagada voice is so annoying from ground .

 

[Croma]

67-3

Bangla have done well so far, but need a wicket. No spinners have bowled yet, need spinner to bowl and see if they get any assistance.

 

[MP2011]

It was otis gibson first who actually took care of the fast bowlers, encouraged them, put the current system in place. Allan Donald then came and worked with the current batch and really fine tuned them

Will always be a mystery for me why didn't we have Donald as our bowling coach. The guy is a walking coaching manual on fast bowling. IIRC he once applied for our coach but couldn't find favours with BCCI

 

[Champ_Pal]

Conditions have already eased considerably. BD still persisting with pacers.

 

[jnaveen1980]

I don't think Taskin has an action to move the ball like Hasan who is like Bhuvi, Asif with flick of wrists move the ball.

 

[Croma]

Gambhir looks stressed

 

[jnaveen1980]

Conditions have already eased considerably. BD still persisting with pacers.

Yea. Rohit is likely to target Hasan in case if there is no movement in the 2nd innings.

 

[Croma]

Finally a spinner . Mehidy On!

 

[BouncerGuy]

Seems like a good toss to win for Bangladesh.

 

[Croma]

Jazzball creams his for 2 fours

 

[Imran Hasan]

Jaiswal what a batsman he is! First saw him in under 19 World Cup final and instantly impressed by his batting.

 

[Unbiased-Fan]

Bangladesh have created a great all round pace bowling attack. All are young pacers.

• Hasan Mahmud
• Shoriful Islam
• Nahid Rana
• Sakib Tanzim
• Taskin Ahmed
• Ebadot Hossain

Sad to see their best ever pacer-Mustafizur in decline.
Saifuddin was promising all rounder. Dont know what happen to him.

 

[Champ_Pal]

Very poor effort from Shakib. He is slow.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Moisture is gone now.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Can Bangladesh bowlers reverse. It is very vital in India. Umesh and Shami are the best in India with reverse.

Umesh Yadav was absoultely beast in India. He has a 10fer in India, which Bumrah and Shami haven't manage in their career.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Does Bangla have any other part time spinner?

 

[jnaveen1980]

okay almost got out. He didn't even close to touching the ball.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Pant under-19 - 2016 batch
Gill under-19 - 2018 batch
Jaiswal under-19 - 2020 batch
Rohit under-19 - 2006 batch
Kohli under-19 - 2008 batch
Jadeja under-19 - 2008 batch

You can see how India's under-19 set up works.

 

[BouncerGuy]

Great batting from Jaiswal and Pant. Positive

 

[jnaveen1980]

Very poor over-rate by Bangladesh. Today Nial O brien was talking a lot about how teams should be penalized for slow over-rate.

 

[Champ_Pal]

Even Stevens so far at lunch.

88/3.

 

[MP2011]

Good recovery by us.

 

[MP2011]

Even Stevens so far at lunch.

88/3.

Not sure about this. I think BD still has the upper hand.

 

[BouncerGuy]

Day 1: Lunch Break

IND 88/3 (23) CRR: 3.83

 

[Devadwal]

Just 23 over in first session .very slow over rate

 

[Dhakar Pola]

I thought India would dominate so really did not want to see the match, BD took 3 wickets and forced me to watch the match, after I started watching India started to play ODI lol

 

[Champ_Pal]

Not sure about this. I think BD still has the upper hand.

Good batting conditions now.

BD did not push their advantage when Kohli fell. Ball is now coming gun barrel straight. Bowling looks ordinary all of a sudden.

Shakib needs to step up for BD if they want to get India for around 230.

 

[Devadwal]

Even Stevens so far at lunch.

88/3.

Nah it was bangladesh session .

 

[Dhakar Pola]

Will always be a mystery for me why didn't we have Donald as our bowling coach. The guy is a walking coaching manual on fast bowling. IIRC he once applied for our coach but couldn't find favours with BCCI

you missed out, he is a very good coach for young fast bowlers

 

[Champ_Pal]

I thought India would dominate so really did not want to see the match, BD took 3 wickets and forced me to watch the match, after I started watching India started to play ODI lol

BD bowlers dominated for as long as there was some juice in the pitch. Now it’s just help yourself buffet bowling.

 

[Devadwal]

Good batting conditions now.

BD did not push their advantage when Kohli fell. Ball is now coming gun barrel straight. Bowling looks ordinary all of a sudden.

After Kohli wicket , couple pf chance created by BD bowlers but they don't grab the apportunity.

 

[DeadlyVenom]

In test match Pant is a big player. You blink and see the scorecard and he has a 50. You blink again and he is on 100.

Unless he gets quickly he will take the whole game away from Bangladesh.

 

[jnaveen1980]

I thought India would dominate so really did not want to see the match, BD took 3 wickets and forced me to watch the match, after I started watching India started to play ODI lol

India has been struggling at home for a while. They consistently relied on Jadeja or Axar or Sundar or Ashwin to bail them out. Against Australia Axar patel was the highest run getter.

 

[jnaveen1980]

After Kohli wicket , couple pf chance created by BD bowlers but they don't grab the apportunity.

Biggest miss was the run out chance. Batsman was half way down the pitch. Fielder was 4 or 5 steps away from the stumps

 

[nish_mate]

Not watched the match but glancing at the scorecard young Mahmud looks to be a bright prospect.

 

[RashelHassan]

Jaiswal and Pant have batted really well, IMO. An interesting second session is coming. Don't give a wicket to Nahid Rana. He'll become a different beast, regardless of the pitch conditions.

 

[Mainul]

Good batting conditions now.

BD did not push their advantage when Kohli fell. Ball is now coming gun barrel straight. Bowling looks ordinary all of a sudden.

Shakib needs to step up for BD if they want to get India for around 230.

Our pacers especially Taskin ,Rana needed to bowl more fuller. That was the only chance of genereting wicket taking deliveries. Bowling short in this condition will produce nothing.

 

[Mainul]

Not watched the match but glancing at the scorecard young Mahmud looks to be a bright prospect.

Oh no. I didn't watch live. That may be a costly miss. These 2 are dangerous batters.

 

[MP2011]

If these 2 can add at least a 100 more for this wicket, BD will have difficult time getting back into this game.

 

[Dhakar Pola]

Bowling short in this condition will produce nothing.

lets see if they have developed consistency in this common sense, something our bowlers have been lacking from the start to time

 

[sindhiboy]

Rishabh Pant to the rescue as always.
Nice to see Hasan Mehmud is the real deal.

 

[Dhakar Pola]

Not watched the match but glancing at the scorecard young Mahmud looks to be a bright prospect.

he is a good swing bowler when condition helps him, need to add atleast +5Kmph in his speed though

 

[Cric_lover4487]

Dont understand short ball tactics from Bangladesh bowlers when we were 3 wickets down.

 

[Unbiased-Fan]

It was Bangladesh's session comfortably. Well done Hasan Mahmud and Jaiswal. Pant was lucky.

 

[ravisurya]

You have to accept that Gill is nothing in Red ball cricket.

He is nothing in white ball cricket too. Just a wannabe chapri.

 

[RashelHassan]

If Hasan continues to bowl like this, he'll get more wickets in no time.

 

[Imran Hasan]

Pant gone

 

[Devadwal]

What have you done pant ?

Such a crap shot

 

[Imran Hasan]

If Hasan continues to bowl like this, he'll get more wickets in no time.

And Hasan strikes

 

[Devadwal]

And Hasan strikes

It was nothing delivery .just poor shot by pant
