Bangladesh batted really badly in the first innings, Bangladesh got all out. And Bangladesh scored very few runs. India bowled very well in this match from the beginning to the end. As they played a bad game, now the fans of Bangladesh are waiting to see how they will play in bowling. It seems that there is no way that Bangladesh can win, but let's see how well Bangladesh can do.

Bangladesh went all out in today's Test match on the first day and scored 227 runs. Only Mominul Haque scored good runs in this Test match for Bangladesh and he scored 84 runs for Bangladesh and was dismissed by Ashwin. But many have performed poorly for Bangladesh as all the wickets fell on the first day which is very sad for Bangladesh. Due to India's good bowling performance, Bangladesh could not survive the first day off in the field.
The top scorer for Bangladesh today is Mominul Haque. The fact that he scored 84 runs today is impressive since he had scored less than 10 runs in nine consecutive games before this one. Mominul's achievements are wonderful, but I am disappointed that Bangladesh was only able to score 227 runs. India's bowlers are on top of the leaderboard after another promising day.

Pakistan batsmen are good enough. But the batsmen cannot perform well against the big teams in the national team. At the end of the day the entire Pakistan team depends on Babar Azam's performance. If Babar Azam does not perform well, it becomes very difficult for Pakistan to collect big. And if Pakistan can't reduce such dependence on Babar then they will face bigger problems in future. They will also lose against teams like Bangladesh, Sri Lanka or Afghanistan.
What's the point of having good batsmen in the team when they can't perform against the big teams? In the upcoming NewZealand tour of Pakistan, they have a good opportunity to compete or even win the series as Kiwis performance and overall trajectory is going down. Let's hope Pakistan wins the next series.

But when the ball started to seam, reverse swing or spin. Batters surrendered every single time, there is a reason the score line reads 1-0 and followed by 3-0 whitewash.
I remember only 1 worthy inning of Babar where he scored daddy hundred to save a match against Aus. He was also looking good and flawless in the last test against England but that's it.

Just because of one test series you cannot wash all their achievements.

Bangbros made a mess out of their first inning.
The majority of batters got the start but failed to stay for longer except Mominul Haque. Also, at one point they were 212/5 but lost the next 5 wickets in just 15 runs.
So far this pitch has everything. Seamers and spinners are in the play and batters need to show some patience but it's going to deteriorate soon so best of luck to India with those rough foot marks if they are chasing a little over 250 in the 4th inning so they would like to bat out Bangbros from this game.
Atm Indian openers need to face 10-ish overs and Bongs seamers are going to test our Right-hand openers, fingers crossed.
Thick boy Umesh shines again, there is the reason I rate him highly in subcontinent pitch. He always goes into God mode whenever he plays here.
Bangladesh all out on 227 runs , what's a poor batting performance by them. Day 1 and all out what'd was the rush to make runs they just needed to settle down on pitch and than make runs.The majority of batters got the start but failed to stay for longer except Mominul Haque. Also, at one point they were 212/5 but lost the next 5 wickets in just 15 runs.

India is now in a stronger position and higher probability of winning the match.

As JSRAW pointed out, Bangladesh was 213/5 at one point. Everyone were expecting that they would easily get to a total of 300. But then they lost wickets very quickly and ended up at 227 all out. Ravichandran Ashwin and Umesh Yadav just wrecked the Bangladeshi lower order and tail. And I was baffled about Litton Das batting at no.6. He is their best batsmen and could have been better utilized at no.3 or no.4. Mominul Haque was the only Bangladeshi batsmen who could score a half century and even he got out when it mattered the most.

India easily restricted Bangladesh to 227 runs on the first day of the 2nd Test. Where Bangladesh definitely needed to perform well. Because they play very well at home ground. But at this time Bangladesh cannot control India in any way. I deserve India have been able to master their strategies. The condition of Bangladesh is in worst situation in the 2nd test. As the time is over, India can easily collect 208 runs in the next day smoothly as it is the lowest target.

Rishabh Pant has dismissed the most amount of batters since his debut in Test Cricket.

Pakistan is a team that is stronger in the limited overs format, when compared to the test format. The case with New Zealand is just the opposite. They are one of the strongest test teams in the world right now and were the winners of the inaugural ICC World Test Championship. Pakistan will be having the home advantage and that may prove to be the deciding factor. The two test matches will be played in Karachi and Multan, where the surfaces are more conductive to spin bowling. And New Zealand doesn't have a quality spin bowler, ever since the retirement of Daniel Vettori.
The dilemma with Pakistan cricket team for decades is that they are unpredictable and inconsistent, there is no sincere effort done to overcome this issue of inconsistency. Time and again records are made against Pakistan but nothing happen. Despite losing three home series in a row there is hardly any disappointment on face of Babar.
Now Shahid Afridi is also given a role in PCB top management only because of his political affiliation with current party. I don't think Shahid Afridi is capable of handling any administrative posts after having awful stats.

Dropping Kuldeep Yadav for Unadkat makes no sense at all. Yadav deserved this game .. and going with 3 seamers is a strange decision in Bangladesh

Bangladesh batsmen are in very bad condition in 2nd Test match.Bangladesh scored 184 runs in 56 overs.But Bangladesh lost 5 wickets.They have only 5 wickets left.Bangladesh now has 3.28 run rate.India bowlers started bowling well. It seems that the batsmen of Bangladesh will be all out today.

Yeah atm he looks like a million dollar arm but at the same time there are some challenges too. Usually, mystery bowlers lose their mojo once the oppositions figure em out and with the way technology is evolving it became easier to dissect mystery bowlers so Abrar needs full backing from the selectors and he also needs to work on his variations. Yasir Shah might join him for NZ series so things are looking good for the spin department.
Agreed with this. And so far Abrar Ahmed has performed exceptionally well, but that was under supportive conditions in Pakistan against SENA countries. His big test will come when he travel to England or Australia, where he needs to play under hostile conditions more favorable to pace bowling. But if he wants to stay in international cricket for longer period, then he needs to improvise, by coming up with new skills regularly. If his skillset doesn't improve, then as you pointed out the opposition batsmen will learn how to handle him.

The current Kiwi team is a pale imitation of Defending champion, their performance going down drastically after winning the WTC.
So IMO there is a high possibility of Kiwis getting bamboozled by Abrar and Company. I really hope Abrar squares them out throughout this series, it'd be a very beautiful sight to watch.

Yeah.. after a long gap of around two decades, Pakistan has got a quality spinner in the form of Abrar Ahmed. He has picked up 17 wickets so far from 2 matches, at an average of 21.27. And he faced one of the toughest possible challenges in his debut match, as it was against England. And against New Zealand also, it is not going to be easy. The Kiwis do have some really good batsmen such as Kane Williamson and Devon Conway. It will be a big challenge for Abrar to bowl against such quality batsmen, although he will be enjoying home advantage.

Bangladesh seems to be struggling till now. They have lost three wickets (Najmul Hossain Shanto, Zakir Hasan and Shakib Al Hasan).
As Bangladesh is going to lose wickets, will they be able to survive the Tiger team. Because for India today these three wickets fell on the first day and Mushfiqur Rahim and Mominul Haque have a total of 100 runs. Because if this pair of them can survive till today then they will be able to collect some runs for Bangladesh. Both Mominul Haque and Mushfiqur Rahim are suitable for Tests as Mominul Haque has shown good performance in this Test match. We are still optimistic about Mominul Haque that they can win the Tiger team of Bangladesh.

Umesh Yadav, Jaydev Unadkat and Ravichandran Ashwin have taken one wicket each. It will be a tough task for Bangladesh even to reach 250. In form batsmen Litton Das is to come next and therefore there is some hope for the Bongs. If they can get to a total of above 300, then there is a good chance that Bangladesh will get an upper hand. So far Mominul Haque and Mushfiqur Rahim are handling the Indian spinners with ease.

Bangladesh scored 38 runs in 14 overs after coming to the field to play the 2nd Test match. Looking at the game, I don't understand how many runs Bangladesh can score. However, Bangladesh players have not lost any wickets.
Today's Test match between Bangladesh vs India was held at Mirpur Stadium. However, Bangladesh started batting early and lost 2 wickets for 82 runs. Nazmul Hasan scored 24 runs off 57 balls and Zakir Hasan scored 15 runs off 34 balls to get out of the Test match today. But they should have lasted longer as the Test match required more runs for Bangladesh.We are not getting a good performance from Bangladesh today like in the last match. Even today Bangladesh's top order failed. Bangladesh lost three wickets for just 82 runs. The pitch is not batting-friendly at all. But the batsmen should have performed a bit more cautiously. Bangladesh will be in trouble if they collect less than 300 in the first innings. If Bangladesh wants to win or fight for victory in this match then they need to score at least 300 runs. The experienced Muminul and Mushfiqur are now at the crease. If these two batsmen form a big pair, Bangladesh will be able to collect big.
