BSS, Dhaka :
Bangladesh fast bowling coach Ottis Gibson urged his pacers to come up with better line and length, which he thought missed on the day one of the second Test against New Zealand on Sunday at Christchurch in New Zealand.
According to him, the err in length allowed New Zealand to milk runs freely as they reached a mammoth 349-1 at stumps, almost taking the game away from the visitors. Skipper Tom Latham was batting on 186 with Devon Conway on 99 before the bails were drawn and indicating to pile more misery on Bangladesh.
“We’ve to learn from today (Sunday). We bowled too many four-balls today. Too many balls wide and outside the off-stump. When we missed our lengths, we got cut or got too full to be driven,” Gibson said after the day’s game.
