Taylor is doing well just at the right time. I hope he continues in this rich vein of form

Great to see chiggs back in the wickets. Team will be much better if he can find his old bowling form.

OH Chigumbura, great stuff... Remember he is our best seamer in Bangladeshi conditions. This will surely boost his confidence

Good start, very good start infact. Netherlands are a strong associate side.
Good to say Taylor back in the runs, and Chiggs in the wickets
Good omens

Any information on why Cremer batted so well? Is he capable of turning in this type of performance?
Thanks - always enjoy reading all of the comments.

Yes, he's a good batsman for the position he plays. He hasn't really shown it on the international stage yet (although he has struck many nice cover drives and square cuts), in domestic cricket he almost made a double century a few years ago. In the ODIs he looks pretty susceptible early in his innings, quite a few times he's been clean bowled playing all around the ball with only a couple of runs to his name. Over time and with more experience batting against international quality opponents I think he will produce higher scores.
I don't think it is unreasonable to expect a Test batting average of about 20 from Cremer with a few substantial knocks every now and then. Utseya is another where 20 is an attainable batting average.
