Interesting that the highest score against Bangladesh is 'only' 261 - when everyone was predicting batsmen would churn out world record scores against them.
One can only assume batsmen get bored against them and get out.....
Or captains don't feel they need to bat too long to secure victory against them.

As a test nation, Bangladesh has a bowling average of 51.7, it has only contested 44 tests and has only managed eight matches against Australia and England, the current top two nations in test cricket. Most teams don't need to bat twice against the Bangers at this stage..let's just say that the jury...and the stats are out on the Tigers at this stage.

Bangladesh play a lot of ODI's and don't play another test until May 2007!
