when i saw the target was 353 I had a feeling that zimbabwe may have a few problems in taking 10 wickets. But after that hat trick its over for bangladesh. Habibul Bashar has really failed in batting during his debut as captain.

Tends to happen to good batsmen when the become captain (Vaughan as an example).

In my opinion the best example for a great batsman who was dreadful as captain is Sachin Tendulkar himself. He was pretty bad as Captain. And bak when he was captain, he was India's only hope. So now u know the story of his #of wins as captain.

The first day of the second test was washed out

 

[andrew_nixon]

The second day was also washed out........ could this be Bangladesh's second draw?

 

[andrew_nixon]

Some play today, but not much......

**UPDATE**

2nd Test - Close Of Play - Day Three

Bangladesh 1st Innings: 88/5

 

[jeromedascorp]

just have a quetion, will this match be abandoned if not even 90 overs are bowled?

 

[andrew_nixon]

Once a ball is bowled the match counts as a match. It only wouldn't count if it never started.

 

[jeromedascorp]

wasnt there a match between eng and RSA a yrs ago wher both teams sacrificed one innings? It was just a 2 inning match instead of 4.

 

[andrew_nixon]

Yes, but that was fixed by Hansie Cronje.

 

[601731]

unfortunately i might add.

 

[jeromedascorp]

wow. i thought that the only thing he fixed wa sthe ODI series in India after they thrashed india in the tests. Well now its all clear why he got the life ban but wat a disgrace. He was a good all rounder and leader for RSA.

 

[andrew_nixon]

The fourth day has been completely washed out

 

[ricky123]
