No victor was a mistake

Would start bringing spin from both ends.
The Victor that bowls accurately in hindsight would probably have been useful. It was critical to get 2 or 3 wickets before lunch. They're dealing with our spin with ease.
The pitch will probably assist as the day progresses but just doesn't bode well for when we have to bat on it.

I think you're right, if we're ever going to go with 2 seamers again (can't think when this will happen again) Richie is no longer a certainty. I havent seen that ball that nips back in and he's simply not accurate enough.

This Bangladeshi singing is something else, my dogs have just started howling :lol:
I think I could be a pop star there and I've been known to clear a room if I try and sing.

Having a fast bowler going for 1 run an over less really doesn't make much difference when the spin bowlers are bowling 2-3 full tosses or half trackers an over going to the boundary

Victor I feel you can set a field too.

Ritchie is a fantastic ODI bowler cos he bowls a couple of unplayable balls and the field works better for him. But in these test I feel he tends to bowl too full or a hit me ball an over.

We need prime creamer, price and usteya today haha

The Zimbabwe bowlers have been impotent thus far. Still a long way to go, but Bangladesh are firmly in control

Could a collapse happen.

Atleast hopefully this can stem the runs a bit
