OCCASIONAL NOTE
The Statesman Delhi
|December 20, 2024
IT was improbable that even with the best of good fortune the M. C. C. would manage to pull the first Test Match out of the fire against an Australian lead of 604 on the two innings, but to make a record fourth innings score was a secondary triumph.
-
The games now stand: Australian wins 44, English 40, drawn 21. Heavy as the scoring was, 1,611 for 40 wickets, it falls well short of the record of 1753 at Adelaide in 1920, when Australia won by 119 (354 and 582 against 447 and 370).
Then also as in this game six centuries were scored, including 123 by Hobbs in the last innings. Six centuries is the record.

The BNP’s victory
Bangladesh has proved that its unity is not merely tribal but like India, symbolic of unity in diversity. One reason for the youth not performing well was the general perception that Gen Zis not prepared to play long-term principled politics. The election rejected both religious obscurantism and the narrative that the BNP is corrupt. The BNP endeared itself to a section of the educated by its declaration that its cabinet will reflect competence with experts heading departments
