The BD pace attack has less than 20 overs experience in Tests.

Didn't have much choice. Their experienced pace bowler Rubel averages 76!

Mustafizur?

The fella who bowled the 19 overs averages 81! For his one wicket.

I accept BD don't have any experienced pace bowlers.

He's only just come back from injury. Was rested after 1 game in the ODI series!

Lightweight.

Rain.

I'd guess the wind in Wellington wasn't as strong as the UK today, for once.

isn't this being shown on SKY ?

Tamim and Mominul hit half-centuries....
:clap

Another wicket for Southee. BD doing a bit better than I thought they would though.

not sure why anyone really surprised.
personally think Bangladesh are stronger in the test format than odi/t20.
overseas reckon bangladesh are more likely to be competitive in Test than odi or T20.
Batting or bowling don't have the power to score 300 or chase big totals whereas the batting is decent enough to cope in flat conditions that test are usually played in and plus I am a huge fan of monimul haque and got a decent batting line up.

biggest problem will be bowling and getting 20 wickets.
hard to see them losing in Asia though against non Asian teams.
