That's probably why he's so successful. He's unorthodox with his batting. Hard to set fields for. I think he's pretty good against spin, Bangladesh may have been better off if they bowled more pace.

Congratulations NZ,but here i would also like to congratulate BD,they played tough Cricket,Vettori played lovely,he came yesterday as a nightwatchman,B.McCullum failed in both the inngs,Vettori deserved Man-of-the-Match award for his batting and 9 wickets!!
BD will give another fighting in 2nd match.

NZ will miss Oham today,he is a fine and No1 All rounder (as per new ratings),BD will again try to pressure NZ as they play on their own turf,but i think if NZ play sensible cricket (which they will try to play,after 1st test,they now realise that BD is a good team and they were put in pressure in 1st test),NZ definately missing Shane Bond here.
Oram didn't do much last test. I don't rate Oram's batting ability in tests on sub-continent pitches so no real loss there. His bowling will be missed. Elliot gets a chance though and hopefully will do well so Flynn can be dropped for the Aussie tests.
My eleven:
Redmond
How
Ryder
Taylor
McCullum
Flynn
Elliot
Vettori
Mills
Southee
O'Brien
Patel wasn't impressive enough in helpful conditions last game. New Zealand needs to do 1 of 2 things
1. Keep him playing so he can gain rhythm. So basically use him for a period of time rather than the odd game here and there
2. Do what they're doing now and only use him in helpful conditions.
I think Southee should play as the experience will do him good. Gillespie could play, he had a good first test match. With no Oram, we probably need a 3rd seamer. Elliot bowls some good little mediums which will be handy, but not up to Oram's standard.

Looks like we're not going to see much play today or for the whole match.

Monday? why even bother. NZ can pack their stuff and just go home:
Its thats the case,the match might be abandoned.
When it starts raining in Dhaka, it doesnt stop for at least a week. On top of that, the weather is not too good. There's something happening in the Bay of Bengal.
So Bangladesh do have a chance to get a draw here or even win the match

Tropical Cyclone is heading towards Bangladesh so NZ team must leave ASAP for their safety though Dhaka is pretty safe.

It won't be a draw if its not played at all, it will be considered abandoned.
