Pakistan A going to chase a huge score to beat England A. Lions spinners, Bess and Briggs, having a poor time. Didn't think Bess looked a good pick last summer, but he has an ok county record.

Upon which Bess takes a couple of wickets. Too little too late though.

I see Mohammed Ashraful's ban is up. Talented cricketer but never fulfilled his potential, do you see a way back into the Bangladesh side for him at all?

He'd lost it well before he stopped playing. I thought BD had definitively dropped him before he went into exile.

Unforgettable innings against the Aussies in 05...

A very bizarre career, wasn't it. He by memory beat the record for consecutive hundreds in tests, then suddenly got found out, and became a lame duck. He couldn't lay a bat on anything after that.
