Has every team now suffered the ignominy of losing to the Bangers now? I can think of instances most teams have lost to them (except England).

All that match practice they had in Darwin getting consistentley shellacked by second string Australia must have paid off hey.

i reckon a lack of a warm up game hurt us, i mean really when a team travels over seas they normally have 2 warm up games. we had one, but a ball wasnt bowled. we havent played a game for 3-4 months, and to play in 35 degrees temps etc, we are used to like 18 lol.

but in saying that we still should have won. o well, bring on tomorrow

I agree

You wont play this bad in the next game, but how much will you guys improve is the big question

was the pitch that bad? i've heard off cricinfo that early in the day there was a damp patch on a good length at one end due to the rain the day before, im pretty sure it was the end that mortazza was bowling at. but surely they should have adapted to it..

Mortaza was getting movement because he was hitting the deck hard. The pitch wasn't that bad, Bangladesh adapted better as the conditions started to improve.
