By Mark Mitchener
From Paul, Saddleworth, TMS inbox: "Heyup MM, I’m trying to get my uni assignment done and dusted before the United-Liverpool match at lunchtime… expect frequent flicks across to your commentary will reduce my productivity almost as much as my sleep deprivation! I reckon we’ll polish them off for 350, then surpass the Bangladesh total by CoP"0334 - Ban 336-8 (95 overs)
Stuart Broad’s first ball of the day is a bouncer, ducked by Naeem - who then flicks a no-ball away for a single. Shafiul gets a short ball first up too, then he gets an edge past the slips for four.
0328: Here come the Tigers batsmen - Naeem Islam (who has 33) and Shafiul Islam (who has eight). They’re not related. And if you manually refresh the page, the “play to start at 0330” will disappear…0326: So, as Mark Butcher has noted, England will hope to rip out the Tigers’ tail as soon as possible. Judging by how their tail-enders batted in Chittagong, Bangladesh may feel that every run they pick up here is a bonus. England’s fielders troop out, led by Captain Cook.
From John, via text: "Just got back from an absolutely rubbish night out, so hoping England finish off Bangladesh early so I can get some sleep knowing I will wake up with Cook, Carberry or Pietersen with a big big century on such a rubbish, boring pitch"You’re out of luck if you’re hoping for a Carberry ton, he was left out of the side yesterday morning…
Former Surrey and England batsman Mark Butcher on TMS: “England will hope they can wrap up this Bangladesh innings without too much trouble, and get out there to bat”
0316: TMS are up and running - Simon Mann’s weather report is “the same as yesterday - dry, sunny and hot”.From Kevin, TMS inbox: “Night shift with Alex from Latvia, has not got a clue about cricket so I have four more hours to explain how great England are (compared to Latvia)”
0309: And bringing it back to England, it seems the Twitter Wars have claimed another victim (followingPhil Hughes’ inadvertent revelation of Australia’s team selection during last year’s Ashes)- breaking news from the Tweetsphere (or whatever it’s called) is thatPaul Collingwood’s pageis now coming up as “sorry, that page doesn’t exist”. Lamenting his fallen comrade, star TweeterGraeme Swanncomments: “Sad to see the back of Colly on twitter, was enjoying the banter. Will try and get someone else on here”.0302: Meanwhile, over in Wellington,they’ve reached tea on day three of the first Test- and New Zealand are following on against Australia at the Basin Reserve. After the Aussies declared on 459-5 yesterday, the Kiwis collapsed from 108-4 overnight to 157. Following on, they’re 87-2 - Doug “The Rug” Bollinger is having a storming match, taking 2-18 to add to his 5-28 from the first innings.0255: Morning, everyone. Whether you’re a cricket devotee up well before the lark to follow the action from Bangladesh, or a 24-hour party person passing through between drinking engagements, your company is most welcome. We’re all set for the second day of the second Test from Mirpur, after some rapid scoring helped Bangladesh rack up 330-8 on day one. Meanwhile, a news story that may be of interest to you - the ECB has publisheda press releasepredicting “a devastating collapse in the entire fabric of cricket in England and Wales from the playground to the Test match arena” if Ashes Tests are returned to free-to-air television. Their words. Ho hum.
