Ah very well, Bangladesh manage to get quick wickets after lunch. Now they are batting with loss of 2 wickets and behind 239 runs. jeez its just 2nd day and hope Bangladesh don't get all out today.....

But real competition is who gets to taste inning defeat first Bangladesh or Pakistan  Roll Eyes
Look like Bangladesh is in very hurry for name in list of shortest test records 35/4 with 34 overs remaining Ishant Sharma is on fire and he can complete his 10 wickets haul as Bangladesh batsmen is attacking which is good for bowlers.

In all probability, the match will be over by today. More than 40 overs remaining in this match, and Bangladesh are 5/2 after 4 overs. There is only a very small chance that they will get enough runs to force India to bat again (which looks very unlikely, as India is having a lead of 241 runs). Umesh and Ishant are bowling now and once again, Ashwin may not even get an opportunity to stretch his arms.

New Zealand v England is in a interesting cross road right now as New Zealand is showing resilience and now they are leading by 41 runs and this is the third day and what happens tomorrow will determine how the match goes and it might end up in a draw unless there is some extraordinary bowling performance from either side.
I did not watch any single ball but it seems this Test have very good chance to end with a draw. There are only two days left and still two and half inniyto go.
In the mutual pool we have akhjob who is the only one that picked a draw and it seems he will have all :-p

In another match Pakistan is still trailing by 276 runs and they are facing an innings defeat and the players who performed in the warn up match could not do anything till now.

when India won in Australia they were missing Smith from the team if i remember correctly and he will make a huge difference in a match if he performs, the New Zealand tour is a good challenge for team India as they are yet to win a series in New Zealand and this is the perfect team to change that history as well.
Smith got out for 4 runs in the ongoing match against New Zealand. 1 player is not enough to change the result which is why his inclusion would not have changed the result between India and Aus and is simply an excuse to justify their loss.

Steve Smith got out for..... just 4 runs!!! Can you believe that?
Do you think this is the 1st time he got out for such a low score? This is not a big deal since Warner and Marnus have basically taken the match away from Pak at this point.

~snip~

but one things i did not understand is that when Liton Das was injured another player came out to bat who was not in the team, when did this rule changed as they start allowing substitute players and Mehidy Hasan came out to bat, so if Liton Das gets better whether he will be allowed back in the team to play or Mehidy Hasan will continue.

~snip~

One more doubt is that, is there a rule change in Test cricket that they can have a substitute player if someone is injured, during Ashes second Test i saw Marnus Labuschagne coming in to bat instead of Smith as he was injured and i did not see them announcing the 12th man, can they select anyone in the squad randomly, anyone having any idea regarding that.

Yeah, this is new rule under only concussion replacement - suspected concussion replacement. where substitute can bat, ball or WK in this scenario

ICC Approves Like-for-like Substitution for Concussion in All International Cricket
Quote
In a landmark decision, the International Cricket Council has approved a like-for-like concussion substitute in men's and women's international cricket and first-class cricket worldwide from August 1, the start of the first Ashes Test.

The decision was taken after a two-year trial of concussion replacements in Australia's domestic cricket competition, the Sheffield Shield.
A player who has been concussed either while batting, bowling or on the field can be withdrawn from the game and be replaced subject to approval by the match referee.

The ICC stated that the decision on replacement will be made by the respective team's medical representative.

@Clement Kaliyar Hope, this helps.

As of now there are 5 incidents of concussion replacement in the International Matches.

1. Nayee Hasan replaced by Taijul Islam                        against India (Shami)
2. Liton Das replaced by Mehidy Hasan                          against India (Shami)
3. Dean Elgar replaced by  Theunis de Bruyn                  against India (Umesh Yadav)
4. Darren Bravo replaced by Jermaine blackwood            against India ( Bumrah)
5.Steve Smith replaced by Marnus Labuschagne             against England (Jofra Archer)

That's ridiculous batting performance from Bangladeshi batsman, it was not unexpected though. The historical match have no much exciting; a one sided match. I am thinking about the people who bought the tickets for the 4th day. Will BCCI refund them  Cheesy I guess match will not roll over such long.

Things would have been much different if Shakib al Hassan and Tamim Iqbal were included in the Bangladeshi squad. I am very sure that there is a lot of anger against the BCB management right now in Bangladesh. I was also excited with the performance by the Indian pacers (especially Ishant), but I want them to perform with such consistence against the stronger teams as well.
I doubt anything good would happen. Tamim has passed his worst performance in the world cup. Little Mouse and others were talking mucn about his existence in the team. Well, Shakib may add some value for the team. I really feel sorry for him. He don't deserve such punishment. BCB could consider him giving chance.

Looks like New Zealand will be getting a lead in their match against England. The 6th wicket partnership (Colin de Grandhomme/BJ Watling) rescued them from big trouble, after they were struggling at 197/5. Both Jofra Archer and Jack Leach looks unimpressive and in total they have gone for 138 runs from 46 overs and took just one wicket.
New Zealand bouncing back and it is expected as they have a long batting line up and majority of them made runs and the New Zealand batsman are testing the patience of the English bowling line up and Jofra cannot bowl all the overs with intensity.

And there was a big surprise in the Australia vs Pakistan test. Steve Smith got out for..... just 4 runs!!! Can you believe that? But Pakistan is still in dire straits, as Australia has build up a lead in excess of 150 runs, with 7 wickets in hand. The outcome is all but certain. The only question is for how long the Pakistani batting lineup can survive against the Australian pacers in the 3rd innings.
Smith completely played the wrong line and got cleaned bowled, even Kohli got out for a duck recently after getting a double century in the match before that, so the battle is on and now Kohli is still in the crease against Bangladesh and most probably he will go on to score another huge century.


Edit: what a catch by Sibley to get rid of Grandhomme  Shocked.

Also, are you forgetting the fact that this team made history earlier this year by defeating a team like Australia in their own backyard? This team can defeat any team currently(Strong or Weak).
The main advantage for India right now is the bowling attack they have when it comes to pace variation and the spinners available to win matches in any pitch and they have the batsman to put some scores on the board and so is the reason they are a formidable side right now, when India won in Australia they were missing Smith from the team if i remember correctly and he will make a huge difference in a match if he performs, the New Zealand tour is a good challenge for team India as they are yet to win a series in New Zealand and this is the perfect team to change that history as well.

I disagree. Shakib and Tamim are not exactly amazing batsmen in tests and they usually perform well in the ODI format which is why their inclusion would have probably delayed their inevitable defeat at the hands of a rampaging India.

What is left to predict in this match? Two very one sided matches going on right now. India cruising towards an innings win in two days against Bangladesh, and at the same time Australia looks all set to defeat Pakistan by an innings at the Gabba. The only match that is worth watching right now is the England vs New Zealand test which is ongoing at Mount Maunganui.
It is true that only one match is interesting to watch as New Zealand does have the opportunity to level the scores against England but the rest of the matches are one sided, but despite that i was thrilled to watch Indian pace bowlers tearing away oppositions in India and i have not seen a performance like this from the pace bowlers where the spinners does not even have a role in which they decimated Bangladesh.

India is basically the currently ranked first in ICC test ranking which could elaborate anyone who are all still wondering how India is unbeaten in home soil for years. The current pace attack of India is missing their regular bowlers still they are getting credit like best pace bowling attack of all times of India. I guess India is going to win this match by another inning+run margin.
This is the regular team India is playing and only Jaspit Bumrah is missing in the team but the rest of the pace attack is regular in the team and yes they are the best pace attack in world cricket right now, there are other pace bowlers in world cricket but the combination and variety of attack they have right now is far superior than any other team and hence they are the number one team in the world right now, but they need to prove the same level of performance when they tour Australia and England.

68 runs lead and 7 wickets in hands. This is going to be one sided test match it seems That it’s just first day over and India has already take a lead . May be Bangladesh would have to get India all out quickly if they still want to be in the game .
There could be plenty of chances for that as that Kolkatta Eden garden pitch is known for supporting spinners on the later part of a test match. But, India must be a king on their own soil which means there could be very little chances for Bangladesh to bounce back in this test match and in this series. India is more likely to continue their record breaking unbeaten home streak. Bangladesh is missing few key players which must be the reason why India is able to take a lead on the first day of a test match.

You are right its very bore cricket specially from Pakistan many was expecting some resistance from them but bowling is completely sucks and no bowler able to have something for team all are totally poor Nasim is going to end his career very earily as he start very earily. In New Zealand vs England for me England is now favorite for winning because they have some good and quality bowling which was concern for me.

The ball might swing in the evening and it all depends upon how well the Bangladesh bowlers are going to take advantage of the pitch and condition, but one things i did not understand is that when Liton Das was injured another player came out to bat who was not in the team, when did this rule changed as they start allowing substitute players and Mehidy Hasan came out to bat, so if Liton Das gets better whether he will be allowed back in the team to play or Mehidy Hasan will continue.
