    Yeah, he's definitely up there. But more importantly, Bangladesh are giving the Aussies a real run for their money. If it wasn't for Gilchrist, they'd be following on!

    I know! Hahaha! Too funny.
    Bangladesh seem to have their number :lol: .

    It's great to see 'desh finally being able to cut it with the big boys. A lot of their better players are youngsters too. Bodes well.

    Yeah, 1st test against Bangladesh was a bit of a shocker - only a narrow win. We won the second test, and Jason Gillespie was named man of the series despite only playing one test, and only bowling 5 overs in his first innings- he made 201 not out (which is if I am not mistaken a pretty good score for a fast bowler - has Flintoff ever made that many runs at an international level? :D ) and took out Bangladesh's top three batsmen in five overs and conceeding only eleven runs. And he didn't get another spell until the next innings. Yeah I guess you could say it was against Bangladesh, but it was IN Bangladesh, under tough conditions and he did dismiss the top 3 batsmen, and one of them made a double century two days prior.
