Hello, one and all, and welcome to Day 4 of the opening test between Bangladesh and Zimbabwe at the Sylhet International Cricket Stadium. Yesterday, only 44 overs were bowled as rain had a major say, as the first session was washed out. Today, too, rain is expected to play a bit of a spoilsport as the weather forecast reads. Bangladesh are currently leading by 112 runs with 6 wickets in hand, and one feels that the home team is slightly ahead, as they will be bowling last on this bowling-friendly wicket. However, the visitors won’t be disheartened much, as some quick early wickets today can immediately shift the pressure back on the home team. There is enough help from the wicket, and this entire Test match has been a seesaw battle, with the pendulum swinging from one team to the other.
