*Official* Bangladesh Tour of Sri Lanka 2021

Is the fizz done with test cricket

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Bangladesh with something to prove here...Mominul with an innings to shut up Papon.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Good to see Chaminda Vaas back in the SL setup as bowling coach

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

The ball is not carrying to the slips. Evidence of the pitch is dying. Lakmal just got a genuine edge off of Mominul and the ball fell short of second slip

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Come on Shanto. Bat until the cows come home. I wanna see a triple ton.

 

[Magrat Garlick]

are they going for a timeless Test so the players don't have to go back?

 

[mr_mister]

Mominul got a claim for Bangas best ever batsman? Feel like he's overtaken Tamim n Shakib now

 

[Mike5181]

I'd take Tamim, Shakib, and Mushfiqur ahead of him. His away record is dreadful.

 

[cnerd123]

Great stuff with the bat

Expecting this to be a draw tho.

 

[Migara]

This is a borefest.

The curator should be made to bowl a whole day on this. If they have left the pitch damp, it would have helped seamers first up, and now by 4th day, will be turning. Or could have gone for a day night test.

roady mcroady roads are what kill test cricket

 

[cnerd123]

oh we're going to **** this up somehow, aren't we

 

[cnerd123]

not out was the right call imo

 

[slippy888]

sri lanka seem to be the only team that getting draws lately

17 wickets falling in 5 days? What a **** pitch.

It good to see batsman actually batting the way test cricket should be rather than a 200 all out 1st inning

 

[cnerd123]

17 wickets falling in 5 days? What a **** pitch.

this was the norm in the late 90s/early 00s. Especially in Asia, even more so the first Test of a series.

I'm happy BD didn't eff it up. A draw overseas is never a bad result.

Will be interesting to see what surface is offered for the next Test.

 

[Magrat Garlick]

Wasn't there one of the Colombo grounds that averaged like 45 per wicket? Back to the grim old days indeed

This should really have been a timeless test. Commiserations to Saif Hassan. Poor lad might not get another game.
