Jaybro DM'd me a couple questions during the 1st Test that I didn't see until now. He asked if BD chose a seaming wicket in Sylhet by being overconfident and if Chittagong would be a dustbowl as expected. My answers are that its very likely BD was overconfident and under-estimated the ZIM seam attac...

Ngarava needs to work on his fitness. He has lost about 10kph/hour of pace. I guess they are well protected domestically but he either needs a rest or to work on his fitness. The next few months are going to be brutal. I think Newman is bowling in the late 130s already. He might actually be more of...

Could a collapse happen.

Bangladesh bats down to at least 10 here...and even the number 11 could score 20 on a track like this.

One brings two. Jeez.

There is still some bounce and zip on this track. One interesting thing is the weather forecast according to google seems ot have changed, no rain at all till Day 5...which means the sun will bake the shit out of this already dry track meaning its going to crumble like a cookie as the match goes on....

We’ll bowl them out tomorrow. Turning square already. Open the bowling with Wellington and masekesa and start the collapse, dr wez phd will get a few overs and so will Bennett if old Ervine has his head in the game. Williams, who knows. Depends what his chiropractor says. Bowling us out for 400 tho...

Ya we've got nothing close to that accuracy in the spin dept, but it is turning. It will turn for Wellie and he lands them. Vincent rips them, let's hope it's his day. Wellington gave nothing away in Sylhet where Taijul went at 5 an over and was wicketless (only took 2 wickets at the fag end of the...

Wow 7 wickets for 40 runs at one stage...fall asleep and you miss it! Yeah this is probably just a 300-325 par score pitch...by Days 3/4 it will probably drop to just 200 par. BD spinners bowled really well looks like. Will be interesting to see how the ZIM spinners cope on this track. Wellington ou...

Raining 6s here...looks like a 400 pitch at the very least. Possibly a 500 run wicket.

ZIM batting first.

We’ve got to keep them under 300 here…
