Fantastic shot by Vitori! Huge six!

Out.

Not good enough Zim. Shouldhave been 450 after yesterday.

[eugene]

Should have been 500 after only losing 2 wickets on the first day. They really should have scored more yesterday when things were comfortable.

all out for 370 is dissapointing let now hope we strike with the new ball

[Kriterion_BD]

excellent fightback...at 304-2, 500 is a bear minimum and 450 would have been a failure. Still this is a decent score considering the pitch has been turning from the get go and we have 3 spinners (even though razzak sucks).

We should have some sort of a lead by the end of day 3.

Craig "the big game bottler" Ervine must be kicking himself for missing out so badly.

The fragility of our tail is a real worry.

I reckon Bangladesh will get about 500 and put some pressure on us now.

[foreignfield]

Well, what else did we expect really with a lower middle order out of form (Ervine) or just coming back from injury (Taibu), a number 10 batsman and three number 11s?

But it's not all doom and gloom, and at the start of play yesterday I would gladly have taken 370. The worst thing is that we installed a bit of confidence in Bangladesh.

Now let's get Tamim early!

An anticlimax, somewhat, but into context, 370 is a decent score, could have should have been better, but its runs on the board, lets see what the bowlers have in them.
