  20.3 Willoughby to Habibul Bashar, no run, Willoughby trots in -
        delivers at very ordinary medium pace, plays down the wrong line,
        hit on the pad, loud shout for lbw, ball doing a bit, Bucknor not

       A bit overcast now, some comfort for the players, but the humidity
        is killing
  20.5 Willoughby to Habibul Bashar, two runs, short delivery, goes for

  22.2 Willoughby to Habibul Bashar, no run, down the leg side
  22.3 Willoughby to Habibul Bashar, FOUR, attempted bouncer, ends up

  22.4 Willoughby to Habibul Bashar, FOUR, Four more! Slices it between
        gully and slips for four
  22.5 Willoughby to Habibul Bashar, one run, this should have been four

        definite four

        width outside the off, smashed through covers for four
  24.2 Willoughby to Habibul Bashar, no run, pushed to mid-off
  24.3 Willoughby to Habibul Bashar, no run, lack of genuine pace, makes

  26.1 Willoughby to Habibul Bashar, no run

Match State: Innings Break

       Welcome back
       Mortaza to bowl, Smith to take first strike
   0.1 Mashrafe Mortaza to Smith, (noball) no run, starts with a no-ball,
        ball hardly carries to the keeper
   0.1 Mashrafe Mortaza to Smith, one run, full and on the pads, flicked
        down to fine leg
   0.2 Mashrafe Mortaza to Gibbs, (noball) no run, full in length, forward
        in defence, umpire Bucknor signals a no-ball
   0.2 Mashrafe Mortaza to Gibbs, no run, loud appeal for lbw, very
        forceful appeal too, Gibbs was not really looking to play at it,
        looked close, not out says Bucknor, immediately calls the bowler
        and tells him one appeal will do - no need for many, and even has
        a word with the skipper Khaled
   0.3 Mashrafe Mortaza to Gibbs, no run
   0.4 Mashrafe Mortaza to Gibbs, no run, almost drags it back onto the
        stumps
   0.5 Mashrafe Mortaza to Gibbs, (noball) no run, one more no ball
   0.5 Mashrafe Mortaza to Gibbs, (noball) no run
   0.5 Mashrafe Mortaza to Gibbs, FOUR, short, pulled away for four
   0.6 Mashrafe Mortaza to Gibbs, FOUR, sweetly timed! Probably the stroke
        of the day so far! Fantastic stroke through covbers for four

Match State: Stumps - Day 2

       Good Morning!
       Welcome to the live coverage of the third day's play of the first
        Test match between Bangladesh and South Africa
       Another hot and humid day in Chittagong
       What remains to be seen today is that whether Bangladesh bowlers
        manage to break this partnership between Rudolph and Dippenaar,
        which is worth 323 runs now.
       The umpires and players are in the middle, play is about to start.
       The new ball has been taken - first up this morning
       Talking about a minor miracle, there is some grass making an
        appearance on this track!
       Maybe some good news for the seamers, but that should also make it
        easy for the batsmen to play the strokes
       Mortaza to bowl with the new ball, which has been taken after 112
        overs.
 112.1 Mashrafe Mortaza to Dippenaar, no run, good line and length,
        getting the ball to move away from the batsman, Dippenaar not at
        all keen on playing it, leaves it alone
 112.2 Mashrafe Mortaza to Dippenaar, one run, first run of the morning,
        stands tall and punches the ball towards covers, as he was playing
        it off the backfoot, took a while to get started to go for the
        single, direct hit would have been trouble, as a matter of fact
        would have been run out
 112.3 Mashrafe Mortaza to Rudolph, no run, full in length, Rudolph seeing
        the ball very well, shuffles a little, right in position to play
        the defensive push
 112.4 Mashrafe Mortaza to Rudolph, FOUR, on the pads, nice glance played,
        four to the fine leg fence
 112.5 Mashrafe Mortaza to Rudolph, no run, on leg and middle, slightly
        slower delivery, played to short mid-wicket
       News of some clouds moving in, there has been a bit of talk about
        some rain making its way too!
 112.6 Mashrafe Mortaza to Rudolph, one run, on his toes, guides the ball
        towards third-man for a single, most importantly Rudolph keeps the
        strike

End of over 113 (6 runs) South Africa 370/2 (lead by 197 runs)
Mashrafe Mortaza 18-2-84-1 (12nb) - Pedrollo End

       Tapash Baisya to bowl
 113.1 Tapash Baisya to Rudolph, no run, new ball or not, Baisya just cant
        get it right here, wide outside the off, ball goes on the second
        bounce to the keeper
 113.2 Tapash Baisya to Rudolph, no run, hardly carrying to the keeper
        again
 113.3 Tapash Baisya to Rudolph, no run, well up to the batsman, forward
        in defence
       It is a very humid morning, and the threat of rain might make the
        batsmen go for some quick runs
 113.4 Tapash Baisya to Rudolph, bye: two runs, can't blame the keeper for
        this, ball hardly carrying to him, nasty bounce as he tried to
        gather it
 113.5 Tapash Baisya to Rudolph, no run, defended
 113.6 Tapash Baisya to Rudolph, (noball) no run
 113.6 Tapash Baisya to Rudolph, no run, pushed to covers

 114.1 Mashrafe Mortaza to Dippenaar, no run, Ooh! This is excellent,
        Dippenaar plays a get-me-out shot, waves his bat outside the off,
        beaten, we might see a wicket here soon
 114.2 Mashrafe Mortaza to Dippenaar, no run, defended
 114.3 Mashrafe Mortaza to Dippenaar, no run, goes right up on his toes

 116.2 Mashrafe Mortaza to Dippenaar, FOUR, that's a beautiful shot, short

 116.3 Mashrafe Mortaza to Dippenaar, no run
 116.4 Mashrafe Mortaza to Dippenaar, no run, left alone
 116.5 Mashrafe Mortaza to Dippenaar, FOUR, Shot! More like a Brian Lara
        short-arm jab, a right handed version of that, class shot for four

End of over 117 (8 runs) South Africa 385/2 (lead by 212 runs)

End of over 118 (maiden) South Africa 385/2 (lead by 212 runs)

        cover fence
 118.5 Mashrafe Mortaza to Dippenaar, (noball) no run, goes for the
        biggie, ball goes straight up in the air, catch taken by mahmud at

       How on earth can Bangladesh get a wicket here?
 118.5 Mashrafe Mortaza to Dippenaar, no run

 120.2 Mashrafe Mortaza to Dippenaar, bye: one run, bouncer, goes through
        the keeper's gloves
 120.3 Mashrafe Mortaza to Rudolph, no run, nasty bouncer, takes his eyes
        off it, nasty blow, probably on the chin, does not look good at
        all...
       Rudolph is flat on the ground, getting some attention now
       That was a real nasty blow, the TV replays show that the ball hit
        him right below his ear
       What a Test debut for this young man!

Match State: Drinks

       Rudolph is up, is willing to carry on, has a big smile on his face
        now
       Talking to umpire Bowden who confirms with Rudolph whether he is ok
       This coule be another bouncer from Mortaza, or will he go for the
        yorker? The smarter fast bowler must go for the full length one
        and get a wicket here
 120.4 Mashrafe Mortaza to Rudolph, wide: one run, ho ho ho! Ridculous
        bowling, a big big bouncer, too high for Bucknor to call it a
        wide, ball goes down to fine leg
 120.4 Mashrafe Mortaza to Dippenaar, one run, short ball, pulled away
 120.5 Mashrafe Mortaza to Rudolph, no run
 120.6 Mashrafe Mortaza to Rudolph, no run, gets right behind the line and

       Mahmud to bowl now
       Mahmud bowls the slower version of the military medium pace, but

 126.1 Tapash Baisya to Dippenaar, FOUR, slogged down the ground for four,
        this is fun time!
 126.2 Tapash Baisya to Dippenaar, no run, ooh! Dippenaar gets the call
        wrong - 'yes, no, yes, stop...' almost had Rudolph run out at the
        non striker's end
 126.3 Tapash Baisya to Dippenaar, one run, pulled away
       A few clouds have moved in, getting dark here
 126.4 Tapash Baisya to Rudolph, one run, swung away to deep backward

 126.5 Tapash Baisya to Dippenaar, two runs, dreadful slog, gets a couple

JA Rudolph 187* (366b 24x4 1x6) HH Dippenaar 170* (363b 25x4 1x6)

       The plan must be to see both these batsmen to get to their double
        hundred and then declare
 127.1 Khaled Mahmud to Rudolph, FOUR, looks like Mahmud has got that
        message, bowls a full toss outside the off, slapped away for four!
 127.2 Khaled Mahmud to Rudolph, no run, defended

        backward point fence, moves to 195

        extra cover drive to move to 199
 127.6 Khaled Mahmud to Rudolph, one run, And there it is! Well played
        Rudolph, pushes the ball to covers and takes a single, Two Hundred

Match State: Drinks

       Well, one hopes that Smith will declare the innings as soon as
        Dippenaar gets to his double hundred. It will be tragic if he
        decides not to!
 128.1 Tapash Baisya to Rudolph, one run, swung away for a single
 128.2 Tapash Baisya to Dippenaar, one run, Dippenaar gives himself room -
        cuts it down to third-man
 128.3 Tapash Baisya to Rudolph, no run, played back to the bowler
 128.4 Tapash Baisya to Rudolph, FOUR, Whoa! Cut away for four
 128.5 Tapash Baisya to Rudolph, one run, full toss, driven to covers,
        misfielded
 128.6 Tapash Baisya to Dippenaar, no run, beaten outside the off, by the
        lack of bounce

End of over 129 (7 runs) South Africa 447/2 (lead by 274 runs)

 129.1 Enamul Haque to Rudolph, one run
 129.2 Enamul Haque to Dippenaar, SIX, This is insane cricket! Dippenaar
        swings it high towards mid-wicket, the catch is taken - and the
        silly man has one foot on the rope, which makes Bowden to raise
        both his hands
 129.3 Enamul Haque to Dippenaar, no run, loud appeal for something as
        Dippenaar misses the sweep shot
 129.4 Enamul Haque to Dippenaar, one run, this time he connects the sweep
 129.5 Enamul Haque to Rudolph, one run, driven down the ground
 129.6 Enamul Haque to Dippenaar, no run, here they all go up for a caught
        behind, keeper takes a few steps, dives full length and puches the
        catch, umpire Bowden has a wry smile - as he walks away

End of over 130 (9 runs) South Africa 456/2 (lead by 283 runs)

 130.3 Alok Kapali to Rudolph, two runs
 130.4 Alok Kapali to Rudolph, FOUR, reverse swept, glorious shot for four
 130.5 Alok Kapali to Rudolph, SIX, charges down the track and hits  it
        high in the air - a long long way past the sight-screen for a
        massive six!
       And that is that - Smith calls back his batemen. South Africa have
        declared at 470/2
       Here we go!
       Pollock to bowl, looks like Mehrab on strike
   0.1 Pollock to Mehrab Hossain, no run, rapped on the pad - a feeble
        query for lbw, no damage done
   0.2 Pollock to Mehrab Hossain, no run, beaten outside the off
   0.3 Pollock to Mehrab Hossain, no run, beaten outside the off
   0.4 Pollock to Mehrab Hossain, no run, getting the ball to move away,

       Surprise or shock? Willoughby - the least impressive of South
        African bowlers - given the opportunity to bowl with the new ball
   1.1 Willoughby to Javed Omar, wide: no run, and the decision proves to
        be insane, Willoughby too nervous or whatever - bowls a big wide
   1.1 Willoughby to Javed Omar, no run, outside the off, left alone
   1.2 Willoughby to Javed Omar, no run, this one bends back in, hit too
        high, doesn't stop Willoughby from appealing
   1.3 Willoughby to Javed Omar, no run
   1.4 Willoughby to Javed Omar, no run, Willoughy couldn't have asked for
        any better, three slips and a gully, bowls full on the off, pushed
        to covers
   1.5 Willoughby to Javed Omar, no run, wide outside the off, hardly any
        pace and bounce to take the ball to Boucher
       If Smith was hoping for a wicket or two before Lunch - and hence
        declared denying Dippenaar a chance to get to his 200, Willoughby
        is not the bowler to be on. Ntini has pace to rattle these batsmen
   1.6 Willoughby to Javed Omar, no run, well outside the off, not a hance
        of getting a wicket with these

End of over 2 (1 run) Bangladesh 1/0 (trail by 296 runs)

   2.1 Pollock to Mehrab Hossain, no run, Pollock bowls straight - keeps
        low, defended, sadly not enough pace to trouble the opening
        batsman
   2.2 Pollock to Mehrab Hossain, legbye: one run, drifting down the leg

  12.1 Ntini to Habibul Bashar, no run
  12.2 Ntini to Habibul Bashar, one run, bowling around the wicket, short
        delivery, pulled away
  12.3 Ntini to Javed Omar, no run, angling across, how did that miss the
        outside edge? So close!
  12.4 Ntini to Javed Omar, one run, tucked around the corner for a single
  12.5 Ntini to Habibul Bashar, no run
       This is below average effort from the experienced South African
        fast bowlers
  12.6 Ntini to Habibul Bashar, no run, angling in, defended

Javed Omar 5* (42b) Habibul Bashar 4* (16b)

  13.1 Pollock to Javed Omar, no run, full in length, just outside the
        off, well forward in defence
       We are into the 14th over and the score is just 16/1. The bowling
        has been tight - but not potent enough to claim wickets
  13.2 Pollock to Javed Omar, no run, outside the off, not making the
        batsman play at it, left alone
  13.3 Pollock to Javed Omar, no run

  14.1 Ntini to Habibul Bashar, no run, bouncer, hit on the body
  14.2 Ntini to Habibul Bashar, FOUR, short - one too many, Bashar helps
        himself with a boundary, pulling it away in fine style
  14.3 Ntini to Habibul Bashar, no run, short again, pulled straight to
        the fielder at square leg, crowd that it was a catch, firmly hit
        shot - taken on the first bounce
       Ntini goes round the wicket, the ploy is quite evident, 'dig-it-in-
        short'
  14.4 Ntini to Habibul Bashar, FOUR, ho ho ho, Ntini gets punished,
        Bashar take a bow! Plays a wonderful pull shot for four

       He continues with Ntini though
  16.1 Ntini to Javed Omar, no run, outside the off, left alone
  16.2 Ntini to Javed Omar, no run, that kept very very low, did well to
        get some bat on it

       Here comes the bowling change. For the people who had hoped for

  17.3 Dawson to Javed Omar, one run

Javed Omar 6* (55b) Habibul Bashar 18* (33b 3x4)

       Another bowling change - not Adams! This is unthinkable -
        Willoughby to replace Ntini
  18.1 Willoughby to Javed Omar, no run
  18.2 Willoughby to Javed Omar, no run, loud shout for lbw, too loud a
        shout, umpire Bowden must show the yellow card or even the red (if
        there are any) for such appeals, ball was pitching well outside
        the line of leg
  18.3 Willoughby to Javed Omar, FOUR, short and wide, cut away in fine
        style for four
  18.4 Willoughby to Javed Omar, no run, bouncer! goes for the hook,
        beaten by the lack of pace
  18.5 Willoughby to Javed Omar, no run, wide outside the off, goes on the
        bounce to the keeper
  18.6 Willoughby to Javed Omar, no run, this one kicks up off a good

  24.1 Willoughby to Javed Omar, FOUR, this explains it all to the
        doubting Toms, Willoughby is struggling against Bangladesh, even
        Bangladesh..., short ball and cut away powerfully for four
  24.2 Willoughby to Javed Omar, no run, oh! Square drive, straight to the
        fielder
  24.3 Willoughby to Javed Omar, no run, much better delivery, but not
        good enough to make the batsman play at it
       After Rudolph had completed his double hundred earlier today, New
        Zealand skipper Stephen Fleming has completed his in Colombo - a
        good day for left-handed batsmen

       It has taken a bit too long for Smith. Anyway, here comes Adams!
       This could be it, if Adams can get a couple of wickets - a collapse
        will follow immediately
  26.1 Adams to Javed Omar, no run, tossed up, well outside the line of

       Back to Chittagong, where Ntini is about to start a new over
  58.1 Ntini to Mohammad Ashraful, one run, bowling from wide of the

       Smith and Ntini having a discussion, makes a few changes to the
        field - and that too with 10.5 overs remaining, this is only
        wasting more time - or adding more time to the day'splay - depends
        on how you look at it!
  58.2 Ntini to Javed Omar, no run, bowling round the wicket, creating a

Match State: Stumps - Day 3

       Good morning!
       Welcome to the live coverage of day-4 of the first test match
        between Bangladesh and South Africa
       Bangladesh are 185/5, they trail by 112 runs.
       It was a couple of wickets late in the day for Adams that turned
        things around for South Africa
       Adams will be the key man this morning, he has a good chance to
        take his second 5-fer in this Test
       As for Bangladesh, there is hardly any batting left, a couple of
        early wickets this morning - should hurry the inevitable - A South
        African Test win
       Akram Khan is the new batsman
       Ashraful is at the non-striker's end
       Adams has to complete his 12th over, five more balls to be bowled.
        He had picked the wicket of Salim last evening with the first ball
        of that over
  68.2 Adams to Akram Khan, FOUR, outside the off, steers it down to
        third-man for four
  68.3 Adams to Akram Khan, one run, taps the ball to the on side, goes
        through for the single, struggling to make it through
  68.4 Adams to Mohammad Ashraful, no run, much better ball, forces
        Ashraful to defend
  68.5 Adams to Mohammad Ashraful, no run, pushed towards mid-off
  68.6 Adams to Mohammad Ashraful, no run, beats the outside edge

End of over 69 (5 runs) Bangladesh 190/5 (trail by 107 runs)

       Surprise!
       Shocking!

        bowl!

  69.2 Willoughby to Akram Khan, no run, angling away, steered to backward
        point
  69.3 Willoughby to Akram Khan, no run, not making the batsman play aat
        this one

        Akram Khan is hit on the thigh
  69.5 Willoughby to Akram Khan, no run

  70.3 Adams to Mohammad Ashraful, no run, a polite appeal for lbw, not
        out
  70.4 Adams to Mohammad Ashraful, FOUR, this is hilarious, umpire Bowden
        laughs as he signals the boundary, short delivery - cut away
        towards the point fence, Willoughby gets right behind the ball -
        and then lets it go through his legs, what should have been a
        single turns out to be a four!
  70.5 Adams to Mohammad Ashraful, no run
  70.6 Adams to Mohammad Ashraful, two runs, cut away again, misfielded by
        Willoughby - who just can't do anything right here, gives away the
        extra run

  71.4 Willoughby to Akram Khan, no run, nothing special about this
        cricket - Willoughby to Akram Khan...
  71.5 Willoughby to Akram Khan, two runs, juicy half volley on the leg
        stump, fails to smash it for four, tucks it away for a couple of
        runs, shows the quality of cricket - when these two are in action
  71.6 Willoughby to Akram Khan, no run, safe option, fire it wide outside
        the off, Akram Khan only too happy to see it go by

        enough pace to hurry the batsman, through to Boucher
       Whatever the logic is, willoughby musn't be bowling ahead of Ntini
        and Pollock - with two new batsmen at the crease
  73.2 Willoughby to Mohammad Ashraful, no run, defended
  73.3 Willoughby to Mohammad Ashraful, no run, full in length, a couple

       So, there is no hurry at all from the part of the South African
        skipper, whose logic is a bit amusing - continues with Willoughby
  75.1 Willoughby to Mohammad Ashraful, no run, outside the off, short one
        too, left alone
  75.2 Willoughby to Mohammad Ashraful, no run, left alone again
  75.3 Willoughby to Mohammad Ashraful, FOUR, Makes Willoughby look far
        worse than an ordinary club bowler, digs it in short, pulls him
        off his front foot - four!
  75.4 Willoughby to Mohammad Ashraful, FOUR, and again! Pulled away in
        fine style, Willoughby threatening to bombard with harmless
        bouncers, Ashraful enjoying this good meal - pulls for four
  75.5 Willoughby to Mohammad Ashraful, two runs, full and on the pads,
        flicked towards the long leg fence, good fielding prevents the
        boundary
  75.6 Willoughby to Mohammad Ashraful, OUT: Terrible! This one sits up
        outside the off, begging to be hit anywhere, Ashraful picks the
        spot - hits it in the air towards extra cover, Smith takes a good
        catch.
