Day 1 of the 3rd *unofficial* test between Bangladesh A and Windies A

We are batting first, 320 for 6 in 82 overs.

Tage- 83 (158)
Captain Da Silva- 82 (96)
Reifer- 56* (90)
Sinclair- 22* (52)

A duck for Kirk. Surprisingly, Motie is playing. No Brandon King.

Nasum Ahmed, the best bowler for Bangladesh so far with 3 wickets for 93, Mushfik Hasan with 2 for 50, and a solitary wicket for Shoriful.

That's a fine day's play of cricket. Advantage slightly in our favor.


Looking forward to an interesting day 2

We made 445 in our first innings.
Kevin Sinclair made 60 to continue his good form lately.

And as I’m typing this he cleans bowl Yasir Ali for 9

BangladeshA are 79/4

Sinclair is hot right now

How good is sinclair? Only ever heard of him because of his excentric celebrations post wicket taking in the CPL. His red ball numbers look really good and he's doing well this A-series, which is exciting.

He is a bowler that can hold an end down, but lately I’ve seen that he mixes it up really well. He bowls primarily on a flatter, quicker trajectory than most conventional and orthodox spinners. For example, Yasir was playing for turn but the ball held its line and beat the outside edge to hit his off stump.

With the bat, he is one of those batsman who can dig in. He’s more attacking in nature tho…

Before this year I’ve always know him as a good white ball cricketer, but he’s coming good with the red ball stuff. Good signs. He’s performing in overseas conditions

Is there any reason rakheem wasn't amongst the squad for this A-tour? Remember him doing well in the FC comp earlier in the year. Has he committed to the USA or something?

I know that we haven't discussed this much, but Akeem Jordan is a formidable lower-order batsman.

He made runs in the Headley-Weekes-Academy series...and today he's made close to a 50.

FWIW, Bangladesh Cricket Board’s coverage of a A team game on YouTube is immaculate. It is better than some country’s actual test match broadcast

Agreed Cant complain much since its the board’s own effort to cover as much possible. Think they are planning to open a TV channel covering all these but think youtube is much better option since TV channel wont be as accessible as this.

Pretty impressed with Joy’s effort to draw the 3rd match. Once he gets set, it’s difficult to get him out and often he plays a longer one which is a rare feet for us. Think he needs to be in our test side permanently.

johnson charles has been added to the squad in place of Gudakesh Motie. How can on earth a batsman replace a bowler? Yeah Charles is a good short format player but a specalist spinner or a fast bowler should have been added.
