Zimbabwe v Bangladesh, 2nd Test, Harare, 25-29 April, 2013

Oh no!

Mushfiqur misses out on his century. Out for 93.

BD 360 in front at Lunch on Day 4 with 3 wkts left. A winning position, perhaps?

Can't see the Zimbots making more than 270.

At least they're on the rankings board after this series.

Bangers declare with the lead at 400.

401 in 4 and a bit sessions. Nice declaration. BD in the box seat.

Taylor gone, Zim f*cked. They need Mawoyo back soon.

Taylor's out. Zimbabwe 3/96

Zimbabwe require another 263 runs with 6 wickets remaining. Three sessions is enough time but i don't think the firepower is there.

Not with Hamilton Masakadza batting.....

Couple of wickets to the Bangers. Excellent!

Masakadza needed a score today. Decent effort by him

Mutumbami gone.

Bangers only 3 wickets from a series squaring victory. Carn you Deshis.

Cremer out as well. That's eight down.

They're nine down with miles to go. Good bad times

Masakadza hits a six to reach his century.

This is real test cricket.

Deserved that, fair play to Bangladesh.

Some promising stuff from Bangladesh, a couple of Masakadzas (with bat and ball), and Jarvis has also shown some real promise for the Zimmers. With Taylor clearly a class player there is plenty to encourage these two sides. I'm not certain Australia would feel comfortable facing either of these sides away from home at this stage.

I've got a lot of time for Jarvis, lively and moves the ball. Hamilton is certainly Zim's 2nd best batsman.

Nasir Hossain is already the best batsman ever from Bangladesh.

Certainly must be the best start to a Bangla career - 10 Tests: ave: 46.7

Has he got fragile fingers and a bit of a temper when he gets out?

Anyway, shame there's no decider, Test cricket's "El Crapico" could become one of the more interesting rivalries!
