Are we about to see the mighty Bangladesh destroy South Africa?

[Lord Bracknell]

Half way through the SA innings.

76/4 (nearly 5) chasing 252.

Something to take our minds off this afternoon.

 

[Goodfella]

I bloody hope so.

 

[Barrel of Fun]

Come on Bangladesh.

Some performances of late (last year or so) have made a mockery of Holding et al, calling for minnows not to be included on the Test stage and World Cups.

Yeah, oh how they slagged off Ireland

 

[The Clown of Pevensey Bay]

87/6 now!

 

[Lord Bracknell]

87/6

Amazing.

 

[dougdeep]

We can win this.

Bangladesh are hardly minnows, cricket is an obsession there and it wouldn't suprise me in a few years they turned into a decent test playing nation similar to sri lanka.

True, but South Africa would still expect to give them a pasting.

 

[John Boy]

132/7

 

[Gully]

Bangladesh are at the stage Sri Lanka were maybe 10-15 years ago, they will be a full test nation at some stage, saw a documentary on cricket there a while ago...they just can't get enough of it.

True, but they are seen in a different light from the core test nations. They are obviously ignoring the facts that it took decades for Sri Lanka and New Zealand to win a match.

 

[Lord Bracknell]

Required run rate well over 8 an over and only Gibbs and 3 hopeless batsmen to go.

 

[Lady Whistledown]

South Africa choking again? They usually save it for the bigger games, maybe they're just getting it in early this time.

 

[Hockley Blues]

8th wicket just fallen

 

[In The Rough]

So many soft dismissals by South Africa. Its like watching Under 11's. 137-8

and nearly nine an over needed

This is so much more fun than the football, isn't it?

Yes it is. Although anything has to be more fun than todays second half

 

[Lady Whistledown]

Admittedly I changed viewing spots halfway through, but I swear the first half was worse than the second, if at all possible.

Although I can confirm that Mayo was all at sea from whichever side you viewed it.

 

[Lady Whistledown]

111 needed off ten overs.

With two wickets in hand
