Match Thread: Aftab v Nazmul, 4D 1 (Simulation)
Hello and welcome to Virginia for the opening match of the four-day series. Team Aftab will be expecting to win outright but they mustn't underestimate Team Nazmul. Team Nazmul disappointed in their first gme, crumbling to 101 all out and losing within 18 overs. Good news for them however is the pitch is looking significantly better. It is hard and true but there is quite a bit of grass on the surface. The bad weather has cleared so the fast bowlers won't get as much movement from the cloud cover

Coin Toss
Oracle: TAILS!
Match Referee: That is a head, what would you like to do
Tehsin: We'll have a bat *shakes Oracle's hand*
Reporter: Tehsin you chose to bat first, why is that?
Tehsin: It was a hard decision but we thought we should just bat first up and get a big total on the board and guarantee us 2 points, then our fast bowlers can do the rest
Reporter: What kind of score will you be looking for in the first innings?
Tehsin: Well the pitch doesn't look that great for batting but I'd be very happy with anything over 400
Reporter: No changes to the side?
Tehsin: No but we've moved around the batting order a bit, Naheyan comes up to 7 and Navarene drops down to 10
Reporter: Oracle, disappointed with losing the toss?
Oracle: Not at all, bowling first means we can give our players time in the middle to get used to this form of the game and steady the nerves before they bat, it is a lot of player's first class debut today
Reporter: So no changes to the squad that played the one-dayer?
Oracle: No, changes can be bad for a team, I think we just need some sort of unity in the team, although that's hard to achieve when there's cricketers of both genders in one team

Now I know, why I was misjudging all those balls while fielding in the 3rd man.

The run rate has jumped. The skipper must have given me a couple of overs.

It has been Team Aftab's morning with Team Nazmul struggling with the ball but they did get the crucial wicket of Asif Rahman. Can Team Nazmul get themselves back into this game? We will find out in this post- lunch session.

The established bowler is not getting the job done. When I am getting the ball?
