North Zone (Bangladesh) 499/6 (131.0 ov) v East Zone (Bangladesh) - East Zone (http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Bangladesh-c747) won the toss and elected to field
It was a slow day for East Zone, as their bowlers had a tough time against the North Zone batsmen, managing to take only two wickets by the end of the second day of play in the ongoing four-day event being played at Shaheed Chandu Stadium, Bogra.
After being asked to bat first, North Zone ended the first day with 294 for four, and resumed their first innings on Friday with http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Naeem-Islam-c2053 and Nasir Hossain.
It was imperative for East Zone to grab wickets right from the get go in order to trouble North Zone, while at the same time, North Zone needed to maintain their onslaught in order to shred their opponent to bits and pieces.
The two batsmen led their side to 348, before Naeem Islam was dismissed by http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Aftab-Ahmed-c944 after he had scored 82 runs.
With the lethal partnership finally broken, this was the time for the bowlers to make a resounding comeback.
However, the arrival of Farhad Reza turned the tables around, as he forged a potent partnership alongside http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Mohammad-Nasir-Hossain-c77146 to take the sting out of East Zone’s already depleted bowling attack.
Finally, with 449 runs on the board, this devastating partnership was brought down on the wicket of Nasir Hossain, who had his stumps obliterated by http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Alok-Kapali-c43787 after smashing a resilient knock of 93 runs.
However, there was just no end to North Zone’s superiority as http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Suhrawadi-Shuvo-c91688 led their side to 499 before the end of the day’s play.
With the two batsmen on 66 and 32, North Zone have a mighty chance of amassing a mammoth score before declaring their innings.
From East Zone, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Tapash-Kumar-Baisya-c92750 was the most successful bowler for taking three wickets in his 22 overs, while his comrades failed to trouble the batsmen.
They now need to regroup to make a strong comeback on day-three in order to avoid a disgraceful end.
