Interesting doesn’t even begin to cover it. I hope BAN can sustain this and at least scare AUS. Ideally I hope they can win it.

Cor, this Test is getting a bit tasty. Chat away, for those lucky enough to be watching it.
Update: Gilchrist left stranded on 144 to give Bangladesh a lead of 158!

it would be sooo cool if bangla won…
i remember how ponting talked about bangla with absolute contempt..
hehe.. would like to hear his views after a bangla win..
my own team got a big bangla scare..
when inzi scored a not out century to win by one wicket.. thank god.. we didn’t lose that test to bangla..
but once bangla beats aus. then the stigma of losing to bangla may just fade away.. slowly..

Just one quick check. while the scorline seems like a dream to a Bangladeshi like me, this is no miracle. Bangladesh has done all the hard work to be competitive and catch a big team in strangles.
While I am enjoying this play, I know that the dream can anytime shatter as it will just take a couple of sessions to turn things around. There are still 2 more days left.
I hope Bangladesh will graduate to a competitive team in some years more. But you have to give her space as she will have mostly bad days and onle some good days.

OK my mistake, he got out. Mistakes happen

So it looks like I’m on my own in hoping that McGill runs through the tail again like a hot knife through butter? And that Hayden and Hussey both get 150s in chasing down the target?
