Match Thread - Zimbawe v Bangladesh 1st Test

Go Shingi.

Ah well. 389 is pretty useful. Good effort from the tail. Top marks for Taylor. Waller rescued the innings with him. We certainly made them work for it.

Good job guys...nearly 400 on a track that isn't flat. Taylor did almost all the damage.

Unlike 2011, we have experience now of taking leads after spending nearly 2 days in the field.

Zim have won ALL the tests against Bang where they have scored 370 and above. Whatever experience they have got, Bang can not win a test in Zim

Somebody tell the openers, it's a test and not BPL. When will they learn?

Congratulation Taylor for such a masterly batting display, just what Zimbabwe needed to wipe out WI misery. 389 is a very good total. Bangladesh have to work hard to compete. Looks like BD boys are in a hurry, already a dropped catch, an edge, all happening here.

Meth wants to take revenge. Save your teeths Bangla players

Have to bat quickly given how much time ZIM burned. Usually if a team bats for 150 overs, the match is headed for a draw, not with a relatively small total like 389.

Exactly, if its day 5...then you bat out for a draw.
