There have been various criticisms about the corruption of the Bangladesh cricket board, moreover, the country's cricketers have been more interested in politics than in the game, although not everyone has done that. But the cricket board should have been very selective in choosing good quality cricketers so that Bangladesh team can build a good position by them but they completely failed to do that. Due to the mistake of the cricket board, the condition of the Bangladesh team has dropped to the lowest level today. They must wait a long time to get rid of this condition. Bangladesh is doing well in other formats of cricket but their condition is not good in Test cricket. Therefore, there is a high possibility of losing Bangladesh team in the recent match against Sri Lanka.

Wait a minute, who knows if Bangladesh can battle day 03 and at the end of the day get a reasonable lead? The way the two players are batting and with Mahmudul Hasan Joy on the wicket, I think it is difficult for the South Africa to give them an innings defeat. Do you remember that recently we had the similar scenario in the India Vs New Zealand test match, where India after making 46 runs in the first innings fought well in the 2nd innings. I think Bangladesh will perform good batting in 2nd innings, though South Africa may still win this test.

Oh... my bad.. just mixed up things there.. Anyway, if they are going to suffer an innings defeat, and that too in a pitch that is tailor-made for them, then I would say that Bangladesh doesn't deserve anymore test matches against the other tier-1 full member nations. Rather, they should play against associate nations such as Scotland and Nepal. Let's see who comes on top in these matches. And given the poor form shown by Bangladesh during the last one decade in test cricket, I am doubtful that they can win even against Scotland.

Not only Nazmul Hasan Shanto, currently none of the batsmen of the Bangladesh team is able to give a quality game. Now in almost all the matches, the bad performance of the Bangladesh team players proves that the Bangladesh cricket team is slowly moving towards destruction. I think the Bangladesh Cricket Board is extremely negligent for such a bad condition of the Bangladesh cricket team at present. Due to the negligence of the Bangladesh Cricket Board, the players of the Bangladesh cricket team are passing every match through laziness.

I think you are checking details not correct because now Bangladesh needs 101 runs to avoid an inning defeat does not follow on.
They were bowled out 106 runs in first inning and now have 101 runs in second with the lost of 3 wickets their batting quality is drastically gone down which bringing them back on their usual performance.
Current partnership is important for them which can bring them to better position but still defeat is written for them in this test match.

LOL.. even a dustbowl can't save Bangladesh now. The pitch at Sher-e-Bangla National Stadium in Mirpur is quite infamous, as it offers a lot of undue advantage for the spinners. But this time, it backfired on the Bangladeshis. Now they are trailing by 101 runs with just 7 wickets in hand (i.e they need hundred plus runs just to avoid follow on). One interesting aspect has been the rise of Wiaan Mulder. He picked up 3 wickets in the first innings, and then followed it up with a half-century.

Pakistan vs England, 2nd Test

The pitch has been changed and now the next match of Pakistan vs England will be played on 24th October means still two days are left to wait for this wonderful game and now I want that the Pakistan team will bowl first because now they have wonderful bowling pair of Sajid Khan and Noman Ali.  

In the last game when the pitch was designed for the batting, they both bowled magically and took wickets back to back and were named as the player of the game but now they are going to play at Rawalpindi cricket stadium, no matter how the pitch is designed, good for batting or bowling what ever this duo will destroy every batting attack.

I was very disappointed to see the performance of Bangladeshi batsmen. A few days ago, Bangladesh performed poorly against India. Currently Bangladesh batsmen have failed against South Africa team at their home ground. Bangladesh were all out for 106 runs in the first innings which was not expected, while South Africa scored 308 runs in the first innings. This is where the weakness of Bangladeshi batsmen can be understood, Bangladeshi batsmen should practice hard. Anyway, batting failure is seen in Bangladesh's second innings as well. Bangladesh opening batsman Shadman Islam batted badly in the first innings and also batted badly in the second innings, in my opinion such a player should not be given a chance in the team. Mominul He failed in this match, Bangladesh captain Najmul Hossain Shanto has bad performance in every match which is seen in every match. However, in the second innings, Bangladesh collected 101 runs with the loss of 3 wickets. Mushfiqur Rahim and Mahmudul Hasan Joy both need to perform well to score big. However, there is a high probability of Bangladesh's defeat in this test.

The Bangladesh team has already started their second innings, but so far they have lost three wickets for 101 runs. South Africa still leads Bangladesh by 101 runs. As usual, Bangladesh's opening pair failed today, with the first wicket of the Bangladesh team falling for four runs and the second wicket falling for four runs, putting them under pressure from the start. Especially the batting performance of Mominul Haque, one of the Test specialist batsman and experienced batsman of the Bangladesh team, has shocked everyone. We saw him score a century in the second Test match against India but against South Africa he failed in the first innings and failed in the second as well.

Mahmudul Hasan Joy and Mushfiqur Rahim are currently batting for the Bangladesh team. These two have already made a partnership of 42 runs, basically a lot of responsibility on them because if they perform well, Bangladesh team can score strong. If Bangladesh cannot give South Africa a target of 250 plus runs in this match, then maybe South Africa will win this match easily.

It is true that the captain of the Bangladesh team, Nazmul Hasan Shanto, has not been able to perform well in batting for the last few matches. He has to go through a lot of poor batting performance in every match and the fans are also expressing a lot of anger on him. In today's match, the Bangladesh team must play with the current batsmen, otherwise they may fail to meet the target. If Mahmudul Hasan Joy and Mushfiqur Rahim can form a partnership, they can give South Africa a big score in these innings. However, in order to play for a big score, the two batsmen who are present will have to bat patiently to meet their target.

What has happened to Bangladesh's own venue? Basically, Bangladesh cannot play Test cricket. Bangladesh top order batsmen cannot defend the ball what kind of cricket can we expect from them. Except for Bangladesh, other unique countries have advantage in their own venue whereas Bangladesh is completely opposite in its own country.

South Africa made good runs but not surprising score was created by them because now once again Bangladesh can get the chance to get lead. They are trailing the runs by almost 100 runs and I think now Bangladesh doesn't have to lose their wickets because it is their last innings and the score that they made in this will be a very valuable score. Both Mahmudul Hasan Joy and Mushfiqur Rahim are playing good and they will resume their innings tomorrow.



It is the question of winning and it is a very important game for both teams because recently South Africa lost against Ireland which was so embarrassing moment for them and if they lose against Bangladesh then it will not be great.

I don't remember the last time I saw Shanto, the captain of the Bangladesh team, batting well. The Bangladesh Cricket Board knows well that Shanto has become the captain of the Bangladesh team. Shanto scored only 7 runs in the first innings and managed to score 23 runs in the second innings.

Bangladesh lost their third wicket for 59 runs. And now Bangladesh's total is 101/3. Mushfiqur is batting very aggressively today. He is unbeaten with 31 runs from 26 balls. Joy is unbeaten with 38 runs from 80 balls. Mushfiqur has the ability to play big innings. However, it cannot be said for sure whether Mushfiqur can play a big innings on this pitch.

Chances of Bangladesh winning a match against South Africa are always slim. the same will happen in this Test match, South Africa has already scored 308 runs in the first innings but Bangladesh scored only 106 runs there.  And although Bangladesh batted first in the second innings, they managed to score only 82 runs for three wickets. even in this innings, it does not seem that Bangladesh will be able to cross 200 runs. in that case, it appears that Bangladesh will not be able to score the same number of runs as South Africa's first innings in 2 innings. so Bangladesh is losing this match very easily.

South Africa made very good score but I don't think so they will get the lead of even 100 runs as to make 140 they have been lost many wickets, lost 6 wickets that was not good and now the bowlers are came to bat meanwhile today I thought in the first 10 or maximum 20 overs, the full team of South Africa will be finished and once again come to bowl. But Kyle Verreynne proved everyone wrong and he single handed made 114 runs and that helped South Africa team to get a big lead in the first innings.

By the way the pitch is very good for bowling that is why it allows to bowler to pick wickets very quickly and example is in front of our eyes. Bangladesh lost two quick wickets in the 2nd innings too and are now 53 for two wickets down.

South Africa team has taken a huge lead of 202 runs. Bangladesh team must collect 400+ if Bangladesh wants to make the match competitive. But I don't think this Bangladesh squad has the ability to collect 400+ on this pitch. The performance of every batsman in the squad is erratic.

Bangladesh team lost two wickets in the first three overs. Shadman scored 1 run and Mominul scored no runs. But now Shanto and Joy are batting responsibly. But we still don't know if these two batsmen can play big innings. At the moment, the Bangladesh team has collected 35 runs with the loss of two wickets. Bangladesh team is still behind by a big margin of 167 runs.

It seems to me that South Africa is in a reliable position because they are in this position. South Africa were under no pressure as their first innings chase of 106 was 127 for 8 wicket. But since Bangladesh is playing at their home play ground, it is a big lead for Bangladesh cricket team. Dhaka pitch used to see less 5 day matches earlier but if you look at the current and past few years you will see that the facility is improving day by day. Although currently they are in a bad position but hopefully it will be over soon. You said Dhaka pitch of Bangladesh cricket gets worse day by day it is not true mate because if you look you will see that there are multiple pitches. In fact, there is no reason to say that it is challenging, but one reason may be that it is difficult to adapt to the soul of another country. The game is not played at home as it is at other places. It is challenging for batter in all countries. It is expected that there will be further improvement in the sports field of Bangladesh.

I don't understand why the Bangladesh cricket team is so degraded. Does it seem to depend on the coach or something else? Some doubt the former coach was behind the destruction of a cricket team. Cricket team has been pushed towards the darkness day by day from where it can't come out. The match against India turned out to be a very sad match. So much disaster is coming that it is amazing to think. Again the phone is playing in the field but they aren't seeing any improvement. Let's see the new coach coming and holding his hand if we can see the new light. And our action advisor Asif Mahmud Sojib Bhuiyan will take all the information to take that ticket forward and see what they can do next time.

A lot can be said about fielding. At first they perform very well, later they seem to give up everything and seem to be floating. I think it is the state of mind of Bangladesh to focus only on the game of a player who will do politics and play sports while he is there, how is it possible to do so much at the same time. He can do politics in retirement if he can do it in time.  There are many other reasons for the disadvantage of the Bangladesh cricket team.

The South African team has made a huge collection of 308. The South African team has managed to take a big lead of 202 runs. This is a very big lead considering the pitch conditions. Bangladesh could not collect 200 runs in the first innings. Bangladesh team managed to collect only 106 runs. Batting on this pitch is more difficult in the second innings. So it will not be possible for Bangladesh to give a big target after collecting 202 runs.



Like the first match, the Bangladesh team faced a batting disaster in the second match as well. Bangladesh has started a very bad one again. Bangladesh lost two wickets to collect only 4 runs. Sadman and Mominul Hok have already returned to the dressing room. Bangladesh definitely expects a big innings from a batsman as important as Mominul. Because he is a very experienced batsman in Test format. But Mominul could not add any runs to the scoreboard.

Doesn't matter much now as damage is done and batting disaster will follow soon.

You guys even making things tough for us and Aus as well lol. Before the IND vs NZ and BAN vs SA. India and Australia were the only competitors for the WTC finals but now equations seem to have changed drastically. Good from a cricketing point of view and neutrals will grab the popcorn but fans of possible finalists will have a hard time.

In this action, guess everybody forgot about Shakib Babu. Poor guy didn't even get a farewell match.

We have always seen the Bangladesh team perform well on this pitch in Mirpur in the past matches. So my prediction about this series is that the match will be competitive. But the match is completely under the control of South Africa due to the poor performance of the Bangladeshi players. In this match Bangladesh will make a comeback in the second innings and the chances of the match becoming competitive is very low.

Bangladeshi batsmen are not playing well on this pitch but South Africa is batting well. Especially due to Kyle Verreynne's century, South Africa team was able to collect big. South Africa collected 301 runs for the loss of 9 wickets. And Kyle Verreynne remains unbeaten with 107 runs.

I thought I would see better bowling from Bangladeshi bowler Nayeem Hasan. But Nayeem could not take a single wicket. Taijul took 5 wickets and hasan Mahmud 3 wickets.
