[Match Thread] Bangladesh vs Zimbabwe, 2nd Test, Dhaka

Jaybro come in guns blazing and then disappears.

Im still here mate don't worry

It's all well and good to say he should have kept bowling the seamers but look both Donnie and KJ are gone now imagine if he bowled them both 10 straight

They had a small window to get a couple more wickets, thereafter the score was irrelevant. Not sure why you’re not buying into that. Poor captaincy as opposed to idiocy.

Hamilton getting hammered here people are forgetting his 3 spinners have all bowled junk (as pointed out by the forum) he lost his opening bowler after 1 Day, the poor bloke doesn't have many options.

But nobody thinks of this whilst calling him an idiot

I dont know if you were watching the first session live. If you did you would have seen the pressure that was there. We had 2 options when they were 10-3, bowl them out cheaply or slow them down to a point where they have to bat most of the day. You can achieve that by getting the top 6 back in the dressing room as soon as possible. You cant take off bowlers who are threatening. Save them for what exactly? The pitch has been ok for batting after the new ball. We havent picked up 1 single wicket from spin if I remember correctly. There is absolutely no pressure now.

I was watching don't worry and if you were both were watching as you claim you would have seen 3 of the 4 wickets were bad shots not exactly the bowlers being 'unplayable'

You're both neglecting the fact KJ & Don were the only guys keeping it tight, they wanted to keep one on at each end

I’m aware of his thought process, just didn’t agree with it. What interests me is that Hammy has given Mavuta a big vote of no confidence as well. A declaration must surely be close now.

[jaybro]

Also remember Tiripano got Rahim in his 2nd spell not his first

[Googly]

Haha, you’re grasping now. He didn’t have much choice, his first spell was 3 overs long.

Im not grasping mate

Jarvis bowled 6 up front then Tiripano came back and replaced him. If he was still bowling at the other end he wouldn't have been able to come back for the 2nd spell.

I understand where you guys are coming from but with the way the spinners were/are bowling Hamilton had to try and juggle his seamers overs

[PSR]

The pitch is still pretty flat and not doing much for the spinners..

[TapsC]

They are still batting
