Sri Lanka in Bangladesh: 2022

[Fuller Pilch]

16 overs left. No chance of a result. Will Dickwella go into ODI mode and try to finally score a century.

Looks like he didn’t

 

[Aritro]

I disown these useless *****

 

[Aritro]

**** me, 5 for 24

bad old BD is back I see

real mental blocks with this outfit.

 

[Flametree]

They knew what they were doing when they picked a batsman to come in at 8...

 

[Aritro]

Lankans were brilliant with the new ball, especially Rajitha but all the ***** had to do was hang in there til they'd seen it off. Protect your stumps with the full face of the bat, play straight and play late.

Wankers.

Nice recovery ongoing

Mossadek still to come, Bangladesh can get a good score

 

[Starfighter]

This more says something about their poor history than anything else, but this is now Bangladesh's fifth highest test partnership.

Bit scary - hope he's OK.

 

[Aritro]

This Rajitha can bowl a bit

 

[Aritro]

This variable bounce is encouraging. We'll get a result either way this time. Not convinced it'll be us on the right end of it given we could just as easily collapse for 60 in the second innings.

 

[Aritro]

****, Rajitha gets two in an over. 7 for 296. This is game on now. We've got the weakest tail in cricket at the moment.

 

[Aritro]

We don't usually get more than 15 out of our tail, so Sri Lanka could be right in this game.

 

[Aritro]

I'm going to regret saying this, but I was expecting a lot more from the Lankan spinners. They've shown very little so far. It's been Rajitha carrying them on his back with some pretty excellent swing bowling.

Of course, they'll probably skittle us for 60 with 9 wickets from the spinners in the 2nd innings now.

 

[Aritro]

Taijul goes to a good bouncer from Asitha Fernando. 8-345.

Hopefully we get 10 out of the 9th wicket, before Ebadot comes in with his average of 0.5.

 

[Aritro]

Rajitha coming in wide and getting some inswing to the right hander now. I can't believe they left this bloke out of the initial lineup for the first test. He's a gun.

 

[Aritro]

Lankans have done well to get the last five out for 90 odd really. Pretty good day's work by them so far.

The Deshi scorecard is dismal.

Terrific effort by Mushy

Poor Mossadek had his pads on for nearly an entire day watching a historic partnership only to get out 3rd ball when he finally bats lol
