I watched the live broadcast of the first one day test match between Bangladesh and Pakistan. Bangladesh's bowling line-up was very aggressive till the first 16 overs, after that they could not bowl very aggressively against the Pakistani batsmen... heights today.

Bangladesh's fast bowlers did exceptionally well in the first hour of the play because of the grass and dampness of the pitch. They took 3 early wickets, but after the first hour balls came to the bat nicely and Pakistan batters took great advantage of the conditions. The pitch is perfect for batting and is way too flat to induce a result. I think this test match series will end up in a draw until we see some heroics from the bowlers.

In the match between England and Srilanka, England got the lead of 23 runs and still had 4 wickets in hand. England will be looking to extend this lead as much as possible. England's top order failed, but thanks to their middle order they are in a comfortable position. Jamie Smith is playing with intent and his wicket will be the key for Sri Lanka if they want to restrict England to a 50-run lead.

Already two wickets down today, these two batsmen Zaker Hasan and Nazmul Hasan Shanto have been dismissed very easily. Thus it is never possible to win with the Pakistani team having an undesired batting performance, as the players of the Pakistani team scored a big one. Pakistani team players scored 448 runs which is tough challenge for Bangladesh team, Bangladesh team players scored 58 runs in 28 overs for two wickets.

Although the number of wickets fell was high in the beginning of the Pakistan team, but later they put up a patient batting performance. But I can see that Bangladesh team lacks such patient batsmen, but if the run rate continues like this, when will it be difficult for Bangladesh team to meet the target of 448 runs.

In the first innings of the first Test match against Bangladesh, Pakistan did not start well but they finished brilliantly. Pakistan's batting initially looked like they might be all out between 250 and 300 runs but the way the Pakistani batsmen batted responsibly later on was undoubtedly admirable. Pakistan declared the innings by scoring 448 runs while Md Rizwan was unbeaten on 170 runs. Bangladesh went into bat late on the second day but the good news for Bangladesh is that they haven't lost any wickets so far. If the opening pair can score 150+ runs then the middle order batsmen will be able to provide a good run support which will help Bangladesh get close to the runs Pakistan scored in the first innings.

Pakistan declared their inning at 348 runs by losing 6 wickets only. Muhammad Rizwan is playing at 171 runs very close to double century, but Captain decided to declare the inning. Bangladesh lost their first wicket at a score of 31 runs. Zakir Hassan was out after scoring 12 runs by the bowl of Naseem Shah. Bangladesh current score is 46 runs by lossing only single wicket. Shadman Islam is set on crease, played a lot of deliverie and is currently batting at 17 runs, and Najmul Hossain Shanto Captain of the Bangladesh team is also playing well at 11 runs. Now Bangladesh trail by more than 400 runs. I think this pitch is batting and didn't helped for bowlers so test match might be drwan.

I think it's fair to say that Jamie Smith will cannibalize Johnny Redhead Bairstow's test career and IMO would be the first choice WK batter for the next important series.

The sample size is small and against a weak bowling lineup but still, you have to perform to touch 65 odd average in the red ball and it's not like Bairstow was performing consistently so maybe Jamie Smith won't be a bad choice. I dare to say, maybe even against India and Australia.

Too early to predict anything like this. Jamie Smith has showed a lot of promise. But then, this is just his 4th test match and he can't even be compared to Jonny Bairstow who has 100 test caps to his name. But age is on his side. Bairstow is almost 35, while Jamie is just 24. Anyway, England is leading by 23 runs, with the loss of 6 wickets. Surprised by the Lankans. They are fighting to the tooth and nail. Now tailenders are at the other end, and if Sri Lanka can get them out quickly, then they will stay in this match.

I won't sugarcoat much because IMHO if you have to make a list of the top 10 worst batters in test history, who played 100 test matches then Bairstow would make it into that list every single time.

He did contribute during Bazball era but only at home and ngl he looked like a headless chicken in the last 10-14 outing, one of the reasons he was rested (Dropped actually) from their home season. It's quite evident that England are searching for an option and Jamie Smith seems to be a good bet, considering another contender Ben Foakes is a bit dull with the bat despite being a skilled and top gloveman.

What a remarkable comeback from Pakistan team especially when they lose 3 of thier important wicket at very early stage but later they way saim and Shakeel Handel situation in such pressure situation was phenomenal and now the significant partnership of more than 200 runs between saud and Rizwan really put Pakistan on front seat because before many of us believe that it Gona be harsh day for Pakistan but that vital partnership really put Pakistan on track to divert results in thier favor and now after scoring more than 400 Pakistan were looking in stable position and now I believe Pakistani bowling will easily manage that situation as they have enough runs to defend.
Anyway Pakistan should stay a bit so Rizwan could complete his double century but may be it increase chances of drawn so that why captain took that difficult decision

You are right. We were thinking that Pakistani team will out soon and Bangladesh will play their turn. But Pakistan lost 4 wickets after that Said Shakeel and Muhammad Rizwan partnership done very well and Pakistani team now declared at 448 runs. In which Saud Shakeel made 141 runs and Muhammad Rizwan is still on the pitch and he made 171 runs.
Well now Pakistan has increased their changer of winning of this match. Now Bangladesh is playing their first inning and they have made 27 runs without any loss. So let's what they will do?

Bangladesh's bowling line was very aggressive on the first day. But Bangladesh's bowling nine was not aggressive on the second day. However, Mohammad Rizwan and Saud Shakeel both batted well which is commendable. On the first day, Pakistan were under pressure after losing wickets, but the big pair of Saud Shakeel and Mohammad Rizwan helped the team to come out of the pressure. Pakistan's batting on Day 1 looked like they would be restricted to 250 runs, but in the end Pakistan declared their innings with 448 runs. However, Bangladeshi batsmen need to be patient and bat well. Both Bangladesh opening batsmen are batting patiently, they need to build a big partnership between them. However, Pakistan are playing at home so their bowlers can be aggressive. Let's see how well the batsmen of Bangladesh can bat.

I watched the live broadcast of the first one day test match between Bangladesh and Pakistan. Bangladesh's bowling line-up was very aggressive till the first 16 overs, after that they could not bowl very aggressively against the Pakistani batsmen. As a result, the Pakistani batsmen settled down at the crease and gradually increased their team's runs, even in the last minute they amassed 448 runs for six wickets. The two batsmen Mohammad Rizwan and Saud Shakeel have been the biggest obstacle in front of Bangladesh and Pakistan team has been able to reach a strong position due to their impeccable performances.

Bangladesh came to bat with the target of equal runs, at the moment they have collected 27 runs without a wicket. Let's see how much they can take their team to heights today.

I like how English fans celebrate using claps, it has that decency vibe to it, definitely wild celebrations of Asian team fans also has its own charm but I like claps better.

This also makes viewing experience for everyone in the stadium better as well.

The test match between Pakistan and Bangladesh has started from the last 2 days in Rawalpindi, but not too much crowd is there but according to the test matches especially in Pakistan, it is an average crowd.

However, this match has started on Tuesday and on the start of the match, there was rain for 1 or 2 hours but then when the rain has stopped, the players came through the ground to play. Bangladesh won the toss and decided to ball first that was I think good thing due to the pitch condition that is why the Bangladesh bowler's picket picked wickets fast but fail to do so yesterday.

The first two overs overview from the Shaheen and Naseem. I am highlighting these two overs because these two were amazing. At the first Shaheen was putting pressure by giving the swings that were unplayable at times.
But on the last two balls, he made the mistake and with an edge, the ball went though the four. However, later Shan Masood decided to give over to Naseem, the first ball of that over was amazing and the batsman just lost his wicket if Rizwan had picked the catch. The ball touched the bat but Rizwan missed the catch. The next balls of that over were full swinging balls by Naseem Shah, no run was there in Naseem’s over. Tomorrow a lot is expected from these bowlers.

One thing that I have noticed, there is no pace in the Khurram Shahzad ball. I just said about his pace, not about his bowling. He was doing good bowling but with no pace, he has such a legendary swing but no pace is here.

Zakir Hasan and Shadman Islam have opened the game for Bangladesh, they both played a decent partnership and the Pakistan bowlers were searching for the wickets but they did not get it. Shaheen Shah Afridi, Naseem Shah, Khurram Shehzad and others have tried to pick the wicket till the full day, it seems too hard to get wickets on this pitch.

Hahaha...!
Just because of this we say Pakistan team is unpredictable. They have no consistency they can do anything at anytime.
Well they made a great comeback on the second day. Seriously I was not expecting that the Pakistan will reach to declarations level. But Saud and Rizwan made it. I really appreciate the batting of both 448 runs is a good score. If Bangladesh will play well so I think this match will easily be drawn. Because today is the third day. And if Bangladesh will play the whole day and they will shift to the next day so there will be only one day left. So this will be difficult to finish the both innings in a single day. So let's see what they will do.?

England vs Sri Lanka, 1st Test already started. Sri Lanka won the toss and they opted to Bat, they made 236-10 runs in 1st inngins where they had lost 3 wickets at 6-3 runs but they tried to move on and keep giving their effort to go ahead. Milan Priyanath(72) and Dhananjaya de Silva(74) showered legendary performance finally and help their team to develop their score, to set a decent Target for opponent. Although 236 run isn't a good target when it comes to test match but i must say, they did their best when rest of players out with lower runs. Shoaib Bashir and Chris Woakes got 3 wickets each. Besides england already started batting and till now they made 259-6 runs in 1st inngins.Ollie Pope(6) can't able to score something big, a decent score done by Joe Root(42), but Harry Brook(56) did half century, so for Jamie Smith(*72), even he is still on the Field. Hope england will score good amount of runs maybe 320runs+ in this 1st inngins.

1 test game between England and Sri lanka team was lived and this test game was held at Old Trafford Manchester ground. Today 2 nd game was stump and Sri Lanka team played their inning and in this inning, Sri Lanka team made 236 runs by losing all wickets and I didn't like their effort and also they made runs in 1 st Inning was also so weak. De Silva made 74 runs and made brilliant effort and other one also Milan and he scored 135 runs in six 4s and two 6s. Start of their inning was very poor and most batsman was dismissal in start and made pressure to next Batsman but these batsman helped them a lot to grab good runs. England already lead this game and also chased all runs of Sri Lanka and they lost 6 wickets and i think 150 to 200 runs more they made and lead. Chris performed well and bowled out 3 wickets and other bashir also dismissed 3 wickets.

I will agree with you. It was really quick all out by the Sri Lankan team. I was expected to at least the 300 run from the Sri Lankan team in this test series. Their openers batsmen are fully failed to do perform and Angelo Methews made golden duck in test series this is really shame for the Sri Lankan team.
And the performance from the England is going good they will definitely cross the 320 runs and also win this series as well.

Sri Lanka vs England
Sri Lankan team have improved and stabilized a lot this year and we are going to see competitive tournament in Sri Lankan tour of England. Sri Lankan 1st innings was not impressive, Except for Dhananjaya De Silva and Milan Rathnayake, non performed with bat but looking at England's play we can say the pitch is tough to bat. At the late stage of 2nd day, England are 4 down at 187.

The SiriLankan team is mostly perfect decent at their home ground because they have quality spinners, which really suit with that condition while their opponents feel huge trouble while playing in SiriLankan home ground condition But now things have become really shocking because a part of their home ground thier spinner showed his magic here too but still unfortunately home ground experience makes England have the upper hand on them which is why thier bowling lineup is really on top. SiriLankan scored 236 in thier first inning, losing their entire wicket while England now not only chased the required Target but also hoped they would take a handsome lead to push results in thier favor. England loses his 6th wicket too so may be they will hardly score 100 more runs which will be much more than enough to defend.

It was remarkable that Pakistan batted better than the team in the second day of the Test match, Pakistan batted interestingly today. Two batsmen of Pakistan team took the team to a very high level today, but Bangladesh is not very good today. Saud Shakeel 141 runs and Mohammad Rizwan 134 both scored a big score today. Mohammad Rizwan is still unbeaten, but he will try to take the team to a better level, at the moment Pakistan team has 367 runs and 5 wickets, Pakistan team has the potential to make a bigger score.

What a remarkable comeback from Pakistan team especially when they lose 3 of thier important wicket at very early stage but later they way saim and Shakeel Handel situation in such pressure situation was phenomenal and now the significant partnership of more than 200 runs between saud and Rizwan really put Pakistan on front seat because before many of us believe that it Gona be harsh day for Pakistan but that vital partnership really put Pakistan on track to divert results in thier favor and now after scoring more than 400 Pakistan were looking in stable position and now I believe Pakistani bowling will easily manage that situation as they have enough runs to defend.

Not sure whether the strategy from Pakistan was logical. Now they need to bowl out Bangladesh for 248 or less to force them to follow on. Declaration at 448/6 was tricky. I would have liked them to add another 50-100 runs before the declaration, to make sure that Bangladesh follows on. And Bangladesh batsmen survived during the last session, to finish at 27/0. Zakir Hasan and Shadman Islam faced the barrage from Shaheen Shah Afridi and Naseem Shah, but made sure that they lost no wickets.

Today's match was quite good between Pakistan and Bangladesh. Pakistan ended their innings and set a target of 448 in 116 overs with the loss of 6 wickets. This target is not small, and the Bangladesh team can't chase it easily. If they try hard, then they can win, but it seems too difficult because of the Pakistan pace bowlers, who will try their best to restrict them from reaching the target and look for wickets as much as possible. The difficult task for the Bangladesh team is to withstand the pressure for a long time and make some runs, at least from every player.

Now, coming to the Sri Lanka and England match, the Sri Lanka team again showed their worst performance in the Test format and did not play well. The match was quite easy for the England team. The Sri Lanka team does not have good players, or it may not be wrong to say that their coaches are not very good because the team is weak in all formats, and this reflects poor training from the coaches.

In the game of Sri Lanka vs England, the Sri Lankan team set a target of 236 runs to England in the first innings. In today's match, England team is already on a good batting streak as they have met the target of giving Sri Lanka. At the moment they have lost 6 wickets after 61 overs and lead by 23 runs but they are gearing up to bat better as they still have four wickets in hand. England batsman Jamie Smith is still unbeaten and is batting brilliantly to score a century.

Pakistan team has collected 448 runs, the score they have given Bangladesh as a target, Bangladesh will have a lot of trouble to reach so far. Although at the moment the batsmen of Bangladesh team are batting well and have not lost wickets so far, we can certainly hope that tomorrow if Bangladesh team can start the game with good batting then there is a possibility of meeting the target. However, Pakistan team's bowling line is good so Bangladesh have to bat responsibly otherwise they will lose the Test match. Bangladesh opening batsmen Zakir Hasan and Shadman Islam are batting on the second day and their partnership is 27 runs.
