decided to start blogging my feelings so that all my thoughts are in one place. Itโs not very well written, I guess in a way itโs a personal diary of my thoughts on Bangladeshi cricket. But youโre welcome to read along! open.substack.com/pub/banglaโฆ

Towhid Hridoy's 242 out of 386 is 63.0% of BAN's total. No double hundred in an innings in which the batting side was bowled out makes up a higher percentage.
Before Hriday,
Seymour Nurse made 258 out of 417 all out for WI in NZ in 1969.
Sehwag made 201 out of 329 in 2008.
bosisto included in here is killing me

Superb double century from 25yr old Towhid Hridoy in only his 3rd Test match. His maiden Test ton converted to 242*. I hope he can go on to lead the next generation of Bangladesh batting.
242* one of the great innings in Bangladeshi cricket history in sylhet from towhid Hridoy taking us from the jaws of defeat to a chance of victory. Wonderful stuff and look forward to seeing him flourish in the future as a Bangladeshi test batsman.

HISTORY MADE! ๐ฅ
Towhid Hridoy becomes only the fourth Bangladeshi batter to score a double century in Test cricket!
A remarkable milestone in his career and another memorable moment for Bangladesh cricket.
Congratulations, Hridoy! ๐ง๐ฉโค๏ธ

Towhid hridoyโs taken us to a lead ffs we have no right to be in this position thank you for saving us Hridoy ๐๐พ
highest scorer for Bangladesh is a huge achievement. I think it heralds a new age for Bangladeshi cricket where we grow on the platform provided by the big 3 of Mushfiqur, Shakib and Tamim who held the records of 200s for Bangladesh before this. Hopefully many more to come.
Roston chase captaincy is not making sense to me. How can you not bring everyone up for the last ball of the over? Letting Hridoy get an easy single to retain strike.
Roston chase captaincy has been a bit perplexing here. Why is he giving singles on the last ball of the over
