Thanks. I play for the South Woodford second eleven in minor county.

But we're not ANY other team. Its got to be embarassing to not beat us minus 2 of our best players, in your own backyard.

And now the game is over, with Ash and JaRule unbeaten.

in Colombo.

Happy now?

And Sujon was our captain

LOL.

I would have been happier if Jahurul had the chance to record his maiden fifty.

Well played Bangladesh. Proud of you.

Habib · #**3433** March 12, 2013, 05:39 AM

Well done boys! Proud of you

Maysun · #**3434** March 12, 2013, 05:39 AM

Finally, congratulations everyone.

A draw hasn't given much satisfaction to me. But at least, it's a start.

fuadomar · #**3435** March 12, 2013, 05:39 AM

Jahirul seems to be surprised and sad :-)

BengaliPagol · #**3436** March 12, 2013, 05:40 AM

Great draw (great win)

haha...I didn't mean to instruct you. I was only presenting arguments to support my statement.

I play in division II in Southern California Cricket League. We may not be such quality cricketers as the chaps you play with, but there are promising players in our midst as well (namely a few players representing the US national team). Anyways, best of luck.

BD_TigerZ · #**3438** March 12, 2013, 05:41 AM

Its still a win for us! Morale and belief will now be there..nerves must be gone too. Its our bowling though thats going too keep us to a draw at best in the next one too..

firstlane · #**3439** March 12, 2013, 05:42 AM

Well done boys. Now do the same in Colombo as well.

No offence taken brother. Lets celebrate our achievement. Ash did start to look solid towards the end which is a great sign and was there till the end which matters the most.

Bonglababu · #**3441** March 12, 2013, 05:43 AM

congrats boyz! Now brace yourself for a stiffer challenge in Colombo.

Agreed! Thank you for the great comment. Yes this is a great achievement! I am very very proud of our team at the moment.

BD_TigerZ · #**3444** March 12, 2013, 05:46 AM

Our fielding nd bowling need improving quick! any new news on gazi?

Miraz · #**3445** March 12, 2013, 05:49 AM

Fastest fifty award in a Test match?

And now most sixes hit?

They must have mistaken it as an ODI.

Zeeshan · #**3446** March 12, 2013, 05:56 AM

Ashraful ke ki jiggesh kore aar shey nijer tale ki bolei jache

Nafi · #**3447** March 12, 2013, 05:57 AM

Commentator asks Ash a question, he doesnt answer it at all.

I know, stupid ekta. Main thing is they want to reward the Sri Lanks too.

And how many are those players dont have Subcontinental/Caribbean heritage?

Cricket will never take off in a country, where its a hobby for the odd brown kid on the block.
