    Good spot. I just wonder about the translation:

    The letter was penned by a young man called Estiavannet, who watched with fascination at the strange game before a player barked: ‘Why are you staring at our ball game?’. A violent scuffle ensued, and one man died.

    the 1400s version of "what are you staring at fluffybunny?" followed by a glassing? When was rum invented?

    A fat bloke with a shiny head was seen trying to run away from the training ground. A tyre iron was found thrown in a garden. Investigations are continuing

    Seeing chasing teams flounder lately. Toss has become important on wearing slowing wickets.

    do Bangladesh owe Pakistan any favours?

    I mean they win the toss, would they put Pakistan in to bat to give them a chance, however slim?

    East Pakistan fought a war of Independence against Pakistan. It is pretty widely accepted that Pakistan military carried out genocide with up to 3 mill killed and 400K women raped.

    Declaration of independence was prompted by mass killings against East Bengali dissidents.

    Most Bangladeshi's wouldn't have been around 50 years ago but it sounds a bit more serious to me than an underarm incident so guessing it still lingers on the consciousness.

    So..... that means they will bat if they win the coin toss?

    Must score 400+

    So Fakhar blithers his way to 13 off 30, then hits out meekly to the field on his 31st delivery.

    He could open the batting for us...
