    sweet didnt realise that . Hope your going to bowl me a few half trackers to help my average :D:D

    on a serious note dont like the way these 2 are consolidating for a 10 over heave at the end. we need 1 - 2 wickets int he next 8 - 10 overs me thinks

    Dockrell strikes for Ireland. A poor shot from Rahim when things were looking quite good. Flighted delivery outside off, Rahim got down and tried to sweep it through the leg side. He got a top edge and the fielder at short fine-leg accepted an easy catch. Bangladesh are five down!

    C'mon Ireland, another wicket now and put them under real pressure :D

    Is it just me or is the cricinfo commentary very biased towards the Bangers?

    very biased, but then its probably a bangladeshi on commentary duties at the moment. :D

    were doign very well only two things concern me right now

    1) Dockers is doing so well that I wonder how chocked up their spinners will have outr top order. Plus those ECB selectors will be drooling over him :mad::mad:

    2) Given the last 5 overs in the first warm up versus the Zimbas Im not convinced by our death bolwing and am worried we let this slip.

    Bangladesh have lost their sixth wicket.

    Dockrell strikes again. Ashraful is gone. A teasing line on the pads, Ashraful tries to sweep and gets a top edge which goes straight to the man at short fine-leg again. Bangladesh in real trouble now.

    Dockrell you beauty. Our death bowling is vulnerable, and you'd have to worry about our batting on a painfully slow spinners pitch. But we're well in this. Keep the wickets coming and our death bowling won't be an issue.

    Splendid recovery by the lads after the pasting in the first five overs.. Looks like Bangladesh don't want to be spend some time out there batting, maybe the pressure of the home crowd's expectations getting to them!

    Yeeeesssss!!!! Massive wicket :D

    Need to put them away now, cos I don't fancy our chances of chasing even 200 on this pitch, it sounds like a bog

    Quote from Cricinfo's commentary

    "Dockrell finishes an excellent spell as he started, with a maiden. He's a hugely promising young man and no doubt the England selectors will be keeping an eye!"

    When is this curse of England snaffling promising Irish (and possibly South African, but for a different reason altogether!) players gonna be lifted?

    dont believe the bullsh*t from cricinfo. This pitch yielded 650 runs in 100 overs last week. Pitches dont go from bat friendly to a bog in a week.

    The ball is keeping low and if there isn't much dew, Bangladesh spinners may be quite a handful.

    Ed Joyce is quoted as saying that if he offers a calm head in the middle he will have been useful. Never more true than today!
