Four years ago from me. Gonna claim it.

I think he was binned far too early. Guys like liton, shanto got far too many chances and still the case.

Interesting playing XI selections, NZ A extra seamer and resting a spinner, Bangladesh A the reverse, dropping / resting two seamers and adding a third specialist spinner.

NZ A perhaps a little light in spin department (Phillips part time offies is a lightweight 5th bowling option), Boyle lucky to get an extra start.

Especially moving away from Slyhet. Seems the opposite of a logical change.

It's a bowler short playing 11 again, anyway. Except this time of the 3 bowlers, only one is a spinner. In Dhaka of all places. Seems spastic.

Very lazily played by bijoy. Nothing shot at the end

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

The pitch looks like its starting to crumble already. This first innings total is crucial

 

[straw man]

Great catch by Foxcroft to get Lennox his wicket.

Matt Boyle's part time leggies look nice too.

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

Amite Hasan is someone to look out for. Hes been making steady runs at domestic level. FC average above 50 and decent List A career over a good sample. Also he can keep.

 

[Aritro]

Kiwis still going along very nicely at 2/170. Commentators bemoaning the one-dimensional character of Bangladesh's bowling attack with just one quick.

 

[ataraxia]

Nice to see a good batting performance, especially unrushed runs against spin.

 

[kaetor]

Definitely a good performance so far, let's hope for no collapse. Phillips LBW looked pretty rough too

 

[Fuller Pilch]

Another 100 for Nick Kelly!

Also I just watched Foxcroft's 6. It was a 2 +4 overthrows

 

[Zinzan]

Some promising performances by some of the NZ A Squad, although Foxcroft did not help his bowling reputation at all, and I'm surprised Ashok only played the 1st test after his 5-fer, unless he was injured.
