Shahadat almost follows...Roach unlucky not to get his third after a flash wide of off stump goes over the slips for four.

Dropped! Alzarri Joseph gets Shadman playing at a ball angling across and edges into the slips where Athanaze puts down a chance.

Absolutely. Seems to be spells when they are really good followed by some rather indifferent periods where chances are going down.

Drinks. Bangladesh are 35/2. Shadman puts away a rare loose ball for four, spanked over point to the boundary.

It is ridiculous now man. Concentrate to me it comes from almost a lack of boredom and some real lackadaisical fielding

Resumption after drinks. Shamar Joseph constantly threatening the outside with great lines and pace regularly over 90mph. This is seriously good from the West Indies attack thus far.

I agree. If it was at the end of a long, hot day it is perhaps understandable if not excusable but at the start of a session, it simply should not happen. The great pace attacks of the glory days relied upon superb slip catching. It is imperative that they work on this aspect of the game, such a fundamental part of winning games.

Shadman is dropped again! This time, the captain puts it down at short cover. Should have been taken. Greaves the unfortunate bowler.

And another one goes down. Shocking slip fielding this time with both Athanaze and Hodge both to blame. Several chances to take it but down it goes. Seales frustrated.

Would it be of value if Holder played as a specialist fielder.

Seales, Greaves and Alzarri would probably all agree with that idea right now. VERY poor catching after Da Silva pulled off two really nice catches to remove the batsmen earlier.

The bowlers have done very well. Not carried away by the green tinged surface, they have generally bowled in good areas. If Brathwaite, Athanaze and Hodge had been up to the standard shown by Da Silva, the scorecard would look very different. As it stands, Bangladesh are 54/2 after 21 overs with Shadman somehow still there unbeaten on 38.

Seales finishes another excellent, testing over. He has yet to be rewarded though having bowled six overs for only two runs. Fine, fine bowling by the young man. Greaves to continue...

If the team doesn't run around the park for two laps and dock their day fees then

Why is Greaves being given this long spell???

Drinks break.
Bangladesh negotiated that last session of play without losing any more wickets, mainly thanks to the home side's numerous dropped chances. Seales in particular has bowled well since Roach took a pair of early wickets but after 25 overs, the tourists are 55-2.

It feels strange to me watching Test cricket from Sabina Park at this time of the year,November/ December.
The world is changed. But perhaps for the better.
But this used to be the heart of football season in Jamaica when we frolicked in the rain and enjoying that sport.
And because it is night here in the USA(east coast) it reminds me of long ago when we tuned in to Radio Australia for
a Test series.
I guess its strange the fielders without gloves too...except they can't even catch a cold.
But I am enjoying the action tho.

Now Hodge is on bowling lollipops. Seems Braithwaite is just as bad as JHo.
