Tamim has been posing a lot of questions, but England have the Ansaris.

Are Bangladesh batting really well or has the pitch suddenly gone flat or is it that the bowling is shitty?

Pitch looks a little better and the bowling hasn't been great. Rashid's not looking much of a threat.

So Bangla lead by 130 odd runs. I do not think 250 can be chased down in the fourth innings. Also, I wonder how the pitch turned a little flat as it was anything but that when England batted. Interesting.

this one is all over, even another huge collapse wouldn't help, think that Bangladesh prob have too many all ready sadly. Rashid's test days could well be over after this, that he's in his 6th over where Moeen and Zafir have bowled nearly 40 between them speaks volumes. Come back to Yorks kid, if you can be arsed to play for us that is...........as I write this, brute of a delivery, cue me asking why Cook hasn't been bowling him......fickle.
On another note, that delivery whilst being great for England, must have our batsmen pooing themselves at the amount of turn

That is one of THE WORST reviews I've ever seen, bat about a foot from the ball.

Bangladesh taking the sensible option here, going at the bowlers trying to get whatever runs they canm they possibly already have enough and anything extra now a bonus.
On another note, how am I the only one on here? No one else have young kids.......

I've just woken up (to nothing great, it would seem), but can confirm that I have no kids, young or otherwise.

So if Cook realises that this captaining thing is a bit too much of a chore, would Root be the best option?

He does seem to be the anointed one Lawrence, although Cook will have to be pried out with a crowbar.
How many drops this morning!? Sigh. No teams that makes more than two drops in an innings deserves to win.

Finally bowls Rashid and he does what he does best, cleans up the tail.
