Think more arrogance and lack of respect for the WI batsmen Ti Em than lack of thinking...really think Eng bowlers reckoned the WI batters wouldn't be good enough to repeat first innings performance...how wrong they were....

Thought SOK was gone for his activities a while back anchor?

Anchorman, I believe bird will come in as the quick.

I believe that they are grooming Agar for the number 6 spot, so they may play O'Keefe and Lyon and the spinners and Agar as the all rounder.

Really Maxwell's bowling is ordinary at best, and his batting is unreliable.........

Ti-em -- as you well done to the WI; it was a ridiculous decision to declare the innings closed. They were 1-0 up in the series all they had to do was bat to the end and take a draw into the thrid test.

AU has now lost 5-28 off 14 overs.8-204 still 64 behind.

Diabolical batting from Glenn Maxwell - should of just blocked the first ball he faces after lunch instead tryed to smack it for a boundary and is bowled!. Probably thought he was playing in the IPL. Oh well, its up to Lyon and Cummins now.

The Bangas prevail by 20 runs.
Fair dinkum what a joke our Cricket side is atm, put their hand out for millions more money and put up that absolute garbage as a reward.
Cricket Australia should have called these pretenders bluff and put them all on performance based contracts.
Khawaja, Maxwell & Wade should never play Test Cricket ever again!

Yep, diabolical techniques against any hint of movement. Maxwell, fair dinkum, he should have handed his baggy green back at the gate after he got out to that mind numbingly dumb shot and kept walking off into the streets of Dhaka never to be seen again.

We'll be flat track bullies again at home no doubt but what is it with cricketers we produce these days who haven't got a friggen clue how to play a ball that moves off the line whether that be seam, swing or spin?

Was a tight match all test.The momentum swung to both sides.AU continue to struggle in the Sub Continent. Two good Test Cricket results in the last two days.And well done to the Bangas on there 1st test victory over AU.

geez if we cant handle the movement and spin from the bangla's, the pom's will destroy us if they can get that reverse swing happening. Not looking good and I like the idea someone put up that the players should be put on performance based contract, at the moment most of them would be broke!!
