Hello mylotters cricket fan,
We are keep discussing about test series between India and England.We should talk about this more than other series.Because they are the top leading team in cricket world.But in Harare,Zimbabwe two minnows are playing test between Bangladesh and Zimbabwe.Zimbabwe is playing cricket after six years and Bangladesh is playing test after a break of 14 months.
Bangladesh is favorite but its Zimbabwe's home condition.Bangladesh misses their leading bowler Masrafee.So far Zimbabwe batted well.Bangladesh got two top class player Tamim and Sakib.So,what do you think,can Bangladesh win the match or Zimbabwe win the match to make it a memorable return in test cricket.

In cricket section there is more INDIAN than of other countries, i think INDIANS might have covered more than 70% of the cricket section here on mylot. This why the reason that there is discussion involving around the INDIA and the other team which is now the England.
To your stats, it good that Zimbabwe is back in test cricket and Bangladesh too playing after a long term. That for the Info. Right nows score is making no sense as Zimbabwe are at top with score of 237/2 at time of writing.
I believe Bangladesh will have an edge over Zimbabwe as they are now more mature team with team spirit and Zimbabwe have politics in theire team more than the palying player. Poltics has ruins the Zimbabwe cricket and that why it didn't grow as like to compete with other. They were good team at a time but now nothing to count........

Bangladesh is favorite,there is no doubt.But its in Zimbabwe where Bangladesh is going to face bouncy bowl and we all know this is the weak point for any asian team.Zimbabwe played a lot 4 days matches against Australia A and South Africa A.This would help them a lot.
Bangladesh did not bowl well yesterday.Let see what happened and Best of luck to Bangladesh.

Zimbabwe got the test status back but i dont see them presenting any threat to other top teams like England ,India ,SA,Aus and SL.There is no one like Heath streak,Gavin Renny,Eddo Brnades, Guy Whittal,Campbell,Flower brothers and who can forget talented all rounder Neil Johnson.This team is not even 5 percent of old ZIM team and when they come out of ZIM to tur other nations its unlikely that they will present much of a threat.Talking about Bangladesh they have the potential to be a very good team problem with them is they dont get enough test matches against other big teams and hence they are not getting enough exposure.In recently announced FTP ,SA,India,Eng and Aus are preferring to play against each other more ,this may be due to pressure of broadcasters who make lot of money if two big teams are playing each other.In this case India ,SL and Pak should play more with Bangladesh and help them out .As far as this series is concerned Bangladesh is much better team and i think they should win the series.

You are 100 percent right buddy.I think ICC should re think about the FTP.
Though Bangladesh is much better site but its Zimbabwe's home and until now still they are in trouble.Lets see how can they handle Zimbabwe.

Hi,
There is no doubt that Bangladesh has an edge over Zimbabwe, they have been turning the heat on big teams and have also shocked the great teams in one dayers.
This team is really jelling very well and will improve well in the coming days and is set to beat the other teams. They have a world class captain in the form of Shakib Al Hasan, who is leading very well from the front. He is supported by a very good group of players like Tamim, Imrul Kayes, Ashraful, and the others. Certainly they are going to miss Mashrafe Mortaza, but still they can do well in the only test. they are playing to win this game. This being a test game and anything can happen, Bangaldesh will at least save the test if not at win it.

I agree with you.
just 1 day has passed and we can not say anything about cricket,it changes suddenly.
If bangladesh give their 70% though they can win.but yesterday it seems that they were quite nervous and missed a lot.
Its a batting pitch and Lets see how Bangladeshi batsmen are going to response.
I really missed Masrafee and Shadat yesterday.If this two bowler there,this score card could be different.
