Jmani: "This is how Karma works. Rain helped Aus avoid defeat against NZ and the same rain can deny a win for them here. "
harsh: "Varun, may be we are being too harsh on BD. May be the pitch is not conducive for big scores? May be there is still hope for BD?" --- I'm not one to destroy hope, so maybe.
Richard: "The extra 20 minutes now gives Aus a real chance of squeezing in a match. Base the chase around the magic 20-over mark."
Sam: "I disagree with the comments suggesting that overs should be reduced pre-match based on forecasts (simply because meteorology isn't accurate enough to do that), but I do think officials should be more flexible about breaks so that players don't end up sitting inside eating cucumber sandwiches when they could be making the most of good playing conditions."
Andy: "Tamim scoring 52% of the BD innings. Could have been much better if had some support from other end."
Starc: Hopefully the skipper is happy with that or he might get a few short ones. It was quite windy and quite cold because of which there wasn't much swing. Josh got it moving a little bit off the wicket when the ball was hard. A lot more discipline from us today to keep Bangladesh down to 182. It has been three months since I got a wicket; nice to get a few and contribute.
4.43pm Through all the ranting about rain, we've successfully completed one innings in this match. Only 20 more, and we will have a result.
Expect Australia to come really, really hard at this target. They've done really well to close this innings out, but Bangladesh barely did themselves any favours. Could be argued that they might have been too watchful at the start, but this tame end vindicates that plan. They were up against a superior bowling line-up, but the platform had been laid. Two lose shots against Zampa undid all of that. Tamim Iqbal got more than thrice the next best batsman, and more than half of all his team. When that happens, you tend to have paltry totals. And 182 is a paltry total.

James : "Tailenders at the crease. Starc one end, Cummins the other. Harsh."
