[AlwaysGreen]

Go Zim. They may not be the best cricketers but at least they've got ticker.

 

[The Charlatan]

Yeah, up the Zimbots.

TEST 1: Stumps Day 1:

Zim all out 240
Shakib 6/59 (I thought he was still suspended?)

Bangers 1/27

Test on a knives edge

 

[TheParraboy]

Zimbots doing well

Bangers 9/244 -lead of 4 runs

This test is shaping up to be a good one. Good to see them playing off in 3 tests as well.

 

[AlwaysGreen]

Zim are in a good place, Bangladesh are absolutely horrendous in the 4th innings of games so if Zimbabwe post around 200-250 than they're a huge chance.

If you want an example of all that is wrong with Bangladeshi cricket check out Tammin Iqbal. A talented player with absolutely no idea how to play a test innings yet he's the best that Bangladesh can select.

His own arrogance gets in the way of him progressing. He should be averaging in the 40s but isn't willing to do the hard work.

Taijul Islam ends up with figures of 8/39, the best ever from a Bangladesh bowler.

Bangladesh require 101 to win.

 

[TheParraboy]

Test should be all over today, day 3

disappointing 2nd innings from the Zimbots, been watching the aussies I think

 

[TheParraboy]

HOLD ON EVERYTHING

Bangers 3 wickets down for 0

still need 101 - 7 wickets left

 

[African Monkey]

Lol surely Bangladesh can't f**k this up

 

[Twizzle]

[TheParraboy]

[madunit]

Bangers 4/62

 

[TheParraboy]

Bangers 4/62

5/62 actually

 

[TheParraboy]

going down to the wire

 

[African Monkey]

Zimbabwe would have to be favourites if they can get Mushfiqur.

 

[TheParraboy]

7/84

 

[African Monkey]

Tied test possibly coming up?
