That’s not what I said lol you’re making shit up go back and look what I wrote.

And you’re going off subject now saying Hami should have bowled or the spinners needed to change up the or bowling.

Facts remain Hamilton only had 2 bowlers he could rely on and he wanted to have at least one on from an end for as long as possible which I think was the right call. Also remember this was the second innings of ‘back to back tests’ Jarvis has bowled a lot of overs in tough conditions, his second and third spells were down on pace and energy after his opening spell of 6 overs.

You guys aren’t taking all aspects into consideration when looking at this, you’re just seeing 4-25 attack attack attack
My bad. You did not say bowl all day.

I don't see anything wrong seeing the attack mindset. I understand the aspects of fatigue and wanting to keep one seamer on. It's why I suggested that maybe Hammy bowls one or two, to give that other seamer a break and then bring them back on.

The difference between having to a chase a total of under 300 or a total over 400 is big. Cricket is a lot about mentality, and thought. We struggle in this department a bit.

Fatigue can't be the excuse, faster bowlers like Mcgrath, Lee, Anderson, Steyn bowled lots of over in subcontinent, and its early winter in the sub continent, weather isn't so hot as a result tracks offering seam movement with the new bowl

First Instance, Zimbabwe complains they aren't getting enough test to play Second Instance, when the team is looking competative, they are giving the excuse of fatigue, simply double standard.

Bangladesh wouldn't have post a mamoth target if Jarvis & Tiripano continued their fearsome opening spells, 25/4 situation to 143/5, nearly 118 runs were added,bringing spinners early damaged the remaining hopes for Zimbabwe Bangladesh would have been packed within 150,and target would have been around 340-350 that could have made Zimbabwe batsman look positive.Any team would have gone for the kill with their best bowlers, when the opponents were crumbling.

I think there would have been a chance to chase 300. Because it was still ok for batting when Mahmudullah got his century. We were 72-2 with our best batsmen still there . We had a chance. Trust me there are moments in test cricket where a team looks like they cant buy a run. Thats the stage they were at


Also dont forget that lower order batsmen can not score as quickly as the top 6. It would have achieved the same thing. Anyway its all the past now. Lets hope they put up a fight today and win the series.

Mawoyo is a really good commentator. Knows his stuff. Should go the Pommie route when he is done playing

They should bowl Ahmed. He has created opportunities.

3 regulation catches put down off Ahmed so far. Not sure if there are any more. But the BD fans think Khaled has bowled poorly. Yes, he hasn't put the ball in the right spot as consistently as Jarvis, but he's bowled as many genuinely troubling deliveries as any other quick in the game if you count the two bouncers to Chari as well. All in all a decent prospect for BD. Certainly better than Rubel and Rabbi and Shahadat.
