It is team Bangladesh. After losing all their wickets for just 87 runs in the first innings, they started batting in the second innings today. They lost 4 wickets in just 25 runs. With such a weak team and weak batting lineup, it would have been better not to play a Test series against a strong team like Pakistan. Bangladesh should have played T20 and ODI series against Pakisthan. Then they could fight a little.

If the team can't win or perform well in the test matches, don't expect any better performance from them in T20's and ODI's. After bangladesh scored 86 runs only in the first innings and were followed on, there was no way they could save the match. They showed a poor performance in the WC previously and now the recent series was a complete disaster for them.
I don't know how can Bangladesh be so inconsistent in their performance and that also at the very same venues, at once they will beat the world t20 champions in a t20 series by 3-2 and immediately after that they will get defeated from Scotland and struggle to even play respectable cricket in front of other teams. If they want to become a good team on the international stage, they have to become consistent for the least, you obviously cannot be so inconsistent in your performances in same format and expect the world to think of you as a great team, currently Bangladesh gets to play against top cricketing nations only because of their viewership otherwise their performance isn't worth that lately.

Although Pakistan won the series but I do wish Bangladesh should have performed better. The only way teams could do better and learn from their mistakes is when they have been given the equal opportunity by the ICC to play a series against different teams. After this series, when is the next series plan for Bangladesh?

Shakib Al Hasan is my favorite batsman in the team and he performed well. Bangladesh need more of domestic cricket and more international matches and they would become much better team.

After reading your old posts I was feeling you are good aware about cricket rules but after reading this one now I am feeling you have no knowledge about this, or you are really upset with this result draw
Dumb statements. You clearly have no idea how much knowledge I possess regarding Cricket. Also, I am clearly upset with these archaic draw rules in tests which I have expressed through some of my earlier posts.



Every non-sense person thinks he is the most intelligent person out there .
I wonder you still lost in the test match rules which lead to the draw.  Cheesy


Atm only Pakistan seems only contender to give India some sort of competition in subcontinent condition as they do have some world class batsmen, they are also very good at playing spin although they didn't face any quality spin since the era of Harbhajan-Kumble-Warne-Murli. Not sure about their spin attack tho, Yasir Shah was my fav go to guy after Ashwin but he's fading now, don't know why he's not playing anymore.
And that's the reason they don't wanna play with Pakistan because this will spoil the Indian winning records at home  Smiley
And that's another reason why they don't allow Pakistani players in IPL, for if they do, the Pakistani superstars will break all records of Auctions.
I am sure, the Pakistani players will be the most expensive players in the auction because of their performances.

To be honest I think that Pakistan is a far better t20 team than India because Pakistan can utilize their pace in almost any pitch and find a great young batting order who can smash balls any time of the innings. Will India also has really good batsmen but on the bowling side, I think they are less than Pakistan. And obviously, those are some reasons why I don't want to show their weakness by inviting Pakistani players into IPL.

+1
Spot on and rightly said. Recent Pakistani performance in the world cup and the series after proofs that no team can match their caliabre, specially the neighboring teams  Wink

There could have been worse for Bangladesh than losing seven wickets for 76 runs. Bangladesh is no stranger being embarrassment, they undergo this as part of their normal routine. The quick dismissal raises the question of whether Bangladeshi batters care about anything? How long they have been expressing their novice attitude on the international stage. It's no wonder they come with the same excuse packs again because they have bundle packs of excuses. Things are weird with this Bangladeshi squad, and nothing can fix it.
Player doesn't have good connection with the coach, there is also doubts about the team selectors. Few old and good players weren't in the squad of this series. Team selectors has included many new players in the squad and all of them have failed to show good performance. Bangladesh really need two good batsmen who can make a better opening partnership. The second test wasn't even played for two and a half days, but Bangladesh has lost the match by 8 runs and an innings.

Shakib Al Hasan gets his 26th test fifty, when Bangladesh required him most. A superb innings that gives Bangladesh hope still alive. Yet 20 overs far away they need to survive in order to draw the match. Bangladesh team so much dependent on few senior players, and all through the series the vast majority of their senior players were absent. The outcome could be different if they could played. Bangladesh are passing a very crucial time, and need to prior attention.

Bangladesh cricket team is heavily dependent on Shakib Al Hasan and this is something not good for them in the long run. They must have 3 to 4 such players in team. Bangladesh is not having good time in cricket, they were down and out in recent T20 WC and now T20 and Test series were also not good for them. In second match they only come near a draw.

England have been bundled out for only 147 runs with pat cummings taking a 5 wicket haul. Again england batting has been exposed infront of quality bowlers. When joe root got out for a duck I knew from that moment that England will not even reach 200 but they not even reached 150. Already looking like a easy win for Australia In the first match of the ashes unless we see some thing extra ordinary from England .

@JSRAW now England are 107 down for 5 wickets, and Stokes too is back in the pavilion but it looks like Pope and Buttler are trying to score some runs and get England back in the game. Also if this is the trailer for the series then it looks like Australia will be winning the series easily, and I’m kinda disappointed because of the way England player’s gave up their wickets.
Poor display of batting but you have to appreciate the fact that Poms are excellent at 5D Chess, so far they successfully denied the 400th test wicket to Bald Lyon. He was at 399 wicket last year but still waiting for his 400th scalp.
------
Meanwhile Bangbros are $ucked up royally. They had to score 110-ish runs to avoid follow on but lol



Edit

2 different matches and we are witnessing epic collapse every where. Hope Indian fans now realize that why we need more Pujara-Vihari kind of players in the Test cricket.

And here we go again... 20/3

England top order doing what they do best, get the hell out from the pitch asap but this time no heroic inning from the poor Rooty. Terrible start for the English, now all eyes on Stokes.

Warne is Aussie version of Sanju Manju.  Grin

After watching today play I am feeling there is something happening in Bangladesh cricket, and they want to live like Zimbabwe without test status because they are doing very poor and giving wickets like this is matter of shame for them now just weather can give them some relief otherwise they have done enough for their own defeat from nowhere.

Wicket is dead and have nothing for bowlers but their style of giving wickets is matter of worry about management because they are going down deep with this way and surely ICC need to have some check case for this all with these type results surely can decrease some reputation of test cricket.

Shakib and BCB issue is also now having again headache for them, and it's need some quick work for settlement.

In second test between Bangladesh vs Pakistan it's already going for draw with after end of 3rd day play Pakistan 188/2 so in just 2 days having any result is not possible, so a test series win for Pakistan with some good points in WTC table.
Maybe Bangladeshi players trying to turn the impossible result into possible with their poor performance Cheesy. Pakistan declared their first innings after collecting 300 runs by losing 4 wickets. Bangladesh have already lost 7 wickets and collected 76 runs till now. Day 4 has ended, Bangladeshi batting lineup will survive as long as Shakib Al Hasan isn't getting out. And they will loss the game if they perform in the same way during second innings. In that case, Pakistan will win the series by 2-0.

I think that even Bangladeshi players should be disappointed with their performance, because they cannot be scoring 76 runs for 7 wickets where in the same pitch Pakistan scored 300 runs for only four wickets. I know that maybe they are doing their best and trying to prove themselves but if this is the example of the best you have,, Tongue then I am seriously conscious about the future of Bangladesh cricket.

The way Bangladesh is performing in tests, it seems that they really want their test status to revoke asap. Saw highlights and fuck, Couple of dismissal were really bad, looked like they were playing T-20.

And what's happening with Shakib vs BCB fight over test cricket tours? Is he really throwing tantrum like teenagers?
