I think a typical copy-paste miscalculation :)

Cricinfo again:
The camera just panned to a rather disappointed Coventry
Heartbreaking :(. Post Mortem would be done, and I'm sure Utseya's lethargy on the field will not be missed...

A disgraceful bowling performance, utter rubbish, and throws away everything gained in the last match.

Coventry must be finding it very difficult to talk to his fellow players right now.

Prosper Utseya: "312 wasn't enough. But our game is improving. We're playing international cricket and those missed chances should have been taken. 3-2 sounds better than 4-1 and we need to come back strong and play well for the fans."
I find comments like that hard to understand

remember how bullish he was before the series "we must beat sides like Bangladesh"

the only better thing in the very dissappointing 2nd half-
The commentators have decided that Coventry and Tamim are joint winners of Man of the Match

As I said before the start of the 4th ODI, it was a good test of characters for Bangladeshi boys. Glad to see they passed with flying colors :D

I thought our bowlers didn't do well with the exception of Price, but felt 312 wasn't enough on such a good flat wicket. Our batsmen let Coventry down if they had got to 330 i think we would have managed to win the game. Having said that i feel the team is not balanced, Waller or Matsikenyari should make way for an extra bowler. Our specialist batsmen are just too inconsistent, the first game belonged to Vermuleon, the second was Sean Williams the third had three good performances from Hamilton, Taylor and Chigs and we won it. If we can get at least three good score of over 70 in one match then we are home and dry. It is hard to imagine a team loosing defending a total as high as 312 but on a flat track its very possible, even Australia couldnt defend over 400 runs at one time.
12.4 Odhiambo to Vermeulen, FOUR, that's an appalling long hop, Vermulen had plenty of time to get into position, drink a cup of tea, and pull the ball towards the long leg boundary- his first boundary today
