Bangladesh V England Test Series 2016

[Gingerfinch]

Ballance needs an innings here if his test career is to continue and it needs to be a commanding one not a scratchy 40.

A scratchy 40 is just what we need.

[Aidan11]

It is was a good morning for us until we started batting.

Hopefully Moeen to the rescue again.

Moeen should be buying a lottery ticket for the Euro Millions this week.

A scratchy 40 is just what we need.

Agreed Ginger, great for the team but not so great for Ballance's future.

[dan08]

Ballance has to go.

[hopeforthebest]

Just a very scratchy 9 for Ballance. England in deep trouble.

[hopeforthebest]

When they are not taking wickets their slow bowlers bowl maidens which ours rarely managed.

[shankycricket]

England need another 50 runs for victory with 6 wickets in hand.

He'll get the next Test I think. Can't see them dropping Duckett down to 4 after just 1 match especially if they win, which appears likely. If there was a middle order backup available, it might have been different.

[hopeforthebest]

England sweeping to defeat as Moeen goes. I said it would be over tomorrow now it might be today.

[Aidan11]

Stokes and Bairstow aren't used to digging in but that's what's needed.

[hopeforthebest]

The fielding of BD has been excellent, only the missed catch off Bairstow to blemish an almost perfect record.

[yuppie]

It seems that 150 lead might be enough? 200 could put it out of reach batting last?

Stokes could well be on his way to a man of the match performance here.....

[Aidan11]

I'd be happier with a 250 lead.

BD are not out of this yet.
