Michael Atherton is looking forward to a thrilling finish in the second Test between Bangladesh and England in Dhaka. Bangladesh built a 128-run second innings lead by closing day two on 152-3 as Englands bowlers leaked runs, but Atherton doesnt believe a target of 250 plus is necessarily out of the visitors reach.I think if Bangladesh can double this lead and get 250 itll be a great game of cricket, said Atherton. I dont see the pitch getting worse, though thats not to say that its an easy pitch to bat on. But England bat very deep, as weve seen in this innings with Chris Woakes and Adil Rashid sharing in a 99-run stand at nine and 10.Its very difficult to get through England. And as that ball gets older, it gets easier and Bangladesh dont have the seamers who can reverse swing the ball as it gets old.I dont see 220 to 250 being too many, England would have to play well to get there but we thought that about Bangladesh in Chittagong, when they were chasing 280, and almost got home. Zafar Ansari took the wicket of Mahmudullah with the last ball of day two Somewhere around 250 is what Im hoping for just for a watching a great game of cricket point of view.Going into day three, England were buoyed by the wicket of Mahmudullah - bowled when looking to slog sweep Zafar Ansari - off the final ball before stumps.It was a shocking shot, wasnt it? added Atherton. I think Id let him stew on it overnight and give him a wall of silence for a while Watch NOW TV Watch Sky Sports for just ￡6.99. No contract England were quite canny actually, quite cute, as I think there was a bit of chat from Jonny Bairstow and Alastair Cook brought another man up in the circle - it encouraged him to hit the big shot and he finally went for it.It will have given England a real lift as Mahmudullah is a good player and he plays the spin nicely. It will also have been a nice boost for Ansari as well, his second wicket of the day.Watch extended highlights of todays play on Sky Sports 2 at 5.30pm, followed by The Verdict on the same channel at 6.30pm.

The AFLs dreams of international dominance might be a little ambitious but at least theyre influencing other sports.The Gaelic Athletic Association (GAA) has announced the mark - one of Australian rules footballs most-distinctive features - will be officially introduced to Gaelic football as of January 1.Much like in the AFL, Gaelic footballers will be given five seconds to move the ball on unimpeded after taking a clean catch from an opponent or teammates kick.However, a mark will only be awarded from a kick-out, and only if the player marks the ball on or beyond the 45m line.Presently, play does not stop in Gaelic football when a player takes what would be deemed a mark in AFL.The rule has been successfully trialled in lower divisions and is designed to encourage more aerial contests - or what the Irish call high fielding.ddddddddddddIts a potentially shrewd move for Ireland, given the International Rules series has been rubber-stamped for a return next year, but has been met with a mixed reaction at home - including from former AFL player Marty Clarke, who isnt sold on the change.I think it could help the game as long as referees know exactly what theyre doing, said Clarke, who plays for his local club An Riocht.(But) personally I think five seconds is way too short. It should be at least 15 seconds if theyre going to reward you for it.The AFL and GAA have agreed to play a two-Test series in Australia next year on November 11 and 18, although venues are yet to be determined.
