Tim Bresnan takes the first over to birthday boy Shakib, who’s 21 today. Happy birthday, Cap’n Shak. He gets his team under way with a two through the covers.From Rob in Bath, TMS inbox: "I’m here for the long haul, hopefully we’ve wrapped it up by my 9.15 lecture! I’m a student doing coursework (it was either going to be that, on the night shift or just getting back from a night out). This isn’t a last-minute mad deadline rush, it’s just that I knew I’d end up doing an all-nighter at some point, and if I do it tonight I get to follow a great England win while I do my work!"0329: Strangely, captain Shakib Al Hasan has already reached the middle and taken guard before his partner, nightwatchman Shafiul Islam, has entered the arena. Anyway, here we go.0325: Tim Bresnan admitted yesterday that it’s been “like playing in an oven” - you can read (and listen to)his post-play interview with TMSwhile we’re waiting for play.0318: If you didn’t hear yesterday, Bangladesh coach Jamie Siddons was fined 10% of his match fee for showing dissent at an umpire’s decision on day three. Meanwhile, Stuart Broad has been treading a rather fine line with his appealing - check outthe TMS podcastfor Simon Mann and Simon Hughes’s verdict on day four.0315: Test Match Special are “go for launch” - Simon Mann’s weather report is that it’s overcast but still warm and dry. Rain looks pretty unfeasible.
From Frankie Four Fingers on the balcony of his penthouse flat in Maidstone, via text: "England to pick up last four wickets just before lunch and then whirlwind Trott to bish bash bosh the required total in quick time before tea, well here’s hoping anyway"0300: Morning, everyone. It’s England’s last day of overseas Test cricket until they step out at the Gabba in Brisbane on 25 November to begin their Ashes defence. But before then, today they have the small matter of preserving their 100% record against Bangladesh. The Tigers are 172-6 in their second innings - effectively 95-6 because of England’s first-innings lead - with one day remaining. So, will we see a Herculean effort from Bangladesh to preserve a draw, or an exciting run chase for England (And if you’re expecting a Bangladesh win, or a tie - well, you can expect one of the most astonishing days in the history of Test cricket).
