1st Test: Bangladesh v England at Chittagong, Oct 20-24, 2016

[TheParraboy]

Poms struggling 5/128 (after winning the toss)

Upset on the cards here? early days but signs are good

 

[AlwaysGreen]

Stumps. England 7/258.

You'd probably say the Bangers were on top but they haven't batted yet.

 

[TheParraboy]

Hopefully poms get bowled out for under 300, and Bangers make over 400

We got tanked by SL, Poms by Bangladesh? If Bangers were ever gonna step up and take a big scalp, now is their time

 

[Hutty1986]

I don't understand why it's been so long since the great Batty boy has played a test. His average is a stunning 68!

 

[AlwaysGreen]

Bangers 5/221, 72 behind. Game is evenly poised with the first batsmen from either side to knuckle down and score a hundred giving their team the edge.

 

[Pommy]

Anyone see DRS overruled the umpire three times in one over? Ali having a very lucky day ha.

 

[Twizzle]

it was pretty funny, I thought that umpire should just give up

Very lucky career*

 

[AlwaysGreen]

Bangers 248 all out. England 3/28 lead of 72.

 

[TheParraboy]

poms 5/85 2nd dig

lead 130

 

[TheParraboy]

53 run unbeaten 6th wicket stand

93 to go

I think Bangers can do it

 

[AlwaysGreen]

Stumps day 4.

Bangladesh require 33 runs to win with 2 wickets in hand.

A sleepless night tonight for both teams

 

[TheParraboy]

Poms should knock off these two wickets and win the game you would imagine

The Bangers just need to get their eye in again for 20 min or so and they could be on their way

History in the making?

What odds a draw?

 

[The Charlatan]

f**k I hope the Bangers do it.

What odds a draw?

About 6000000/1 unless it rains.
A tie might be possible though.

 

[Hutty1986]

Looks likely that the bangas may just miss out here. Need the set batsman to hog the strike, got a feeling that the poms might just sneak home though.

 

[AlwaysGreen]

25 to win now. New ball due.

 

[AlwaysGreen]

23 to win and the Bangers lose their ninth wicket. C'mon

 

[Hutty1986]

Poor old bangas are mashed

 

[AlwaysGreen]

Stokes takes the last 2 wickets and England win by 23 runs
