As much as i want it to end in a draw, it doesn't look like that.

It's possible but seriously unlikely.

We'll be at the halfway stage for the day 10 min into the NZ innings. When was the last time a team bowled 57 overs in half a day?Still Bangla need early wickets to have some chance.

new zealand make up there own rules

They'll have to use a substitute for the substitute keeper :)

Probably needs wickets all the way through. It's possible the openers could start slowly then get out trying to pick up the pace a few overs in, which would be ideal but I don't see it.

ffs 595 and then you lose the game having lost 50 overs to rain on day 1!

The draw was under 4 a few minutes ago and 1.7 a few minutes before that! Test cricket, wow. I'm normally a huge believer in laying my draw green almost all off when the price gets really low but I didn't see this game having a result.

Now Bangladesh's decision to declare really comes to bite them where it hurts. Declaring at 595/8 was never going to improve their chances of winning the game. They should have hit out and gone for as many runs as they could. Ironically had they had another 30 runs it would have given them a huge chance of drawing or winning this game but its those 30 runs that are going to leave them short today. Sad that a team scoring 595/8 dec is probably going to lose the test.

Thirty runs and 6 overs chalked off would be huge for the draw here, not worth much for the win. Was an odd decision not to hit out, certainly.

like Jucel said the other day regarding draws. Most are rain affected. If no rain, pretty much no draw.

True but this was rain affected too!

By:

tyco161 When: 16 Jan 17 01:42

yes it was rain affected but plenty of time made up too... and its Bangladesh :)

jucel69 When: 16 Jan 17 01:45

not sure I would be backing NZ @ 1.1 at 4 per over, with the 'chance' of lost overs

By:

jucel69 When: 16 Jan 17 01:46

then again with bowling like that....

By:

tyco161 When: 16 Jan 17 01:46

Nor would I Juce, never never back low odds in test cricket is my motto.

By:

jucel69 When: 16 Jan 17 01:48

By:

tyco161 When: 16 Jan 17 01:52

do you think they will go to 9 down, or shut up shop at some point?

By:

jucel69 When: 16 Jan 17 02:02

Will Mushy's injury come into the equation re fair play??

hopefully new zealand get stripped off the trophy, bowling short balls to a man a with 1 working arm

By:

jucel69 When: 16 Jan 17 02:09

By:

jucel69 When: 16 Jan 17 02:10

2 down
