*Official* Tri-Nation ODI Series in Bangladesh

[Jono]

Seeing as this has started, shouldn't this be stickied and Ind vs. SL taken away?

Anyway:

7.6


Welegedara to Tamim Iqbal, FOUR, three in a row, full on middle and leg, in the slot for Tamim who flicks it uppishly over square leg to the ropes

7.5


Welegedara to Tamim Iqbal, FOUR, a rubbish full toss outside off and is dealt with appropriately as Tamim crashes it through point to beat third man, bigger cheers

7.4


Welegedara to Tamim Iqbal, FOUR, Tharanga misfields after running to his right from a squarish fine leg, whipped off the back foot and he fumbles to allow it through the ropes, the crowd roars

7.3


Welegedara to Tamim Iqbal, no run, plenty of action already in the first few overs, bowled it short and he went for the pull, took his eyes off the ball there and paid the price, was struck on the helmet, no damage done

7.2


Welegedara to Tamim Iqbal, no run, goes for another one, lands on a good length and he tries to swing it into the stands over long-on but misses, Sangakkara goes up belatedly, no response from the umpire

7.1


Welegedara to Tamim Iqbal, FOUR, the field is up and he launches that over mid-on, shortish but he went through with the shot, smacking it over the in-field

[NUFAN]

Tamim gone for 40, got out at a pretty poor time, Ashraful needs to play a responsible innings, yeah right!

[NZ Guy]

Jeez Bangladesh! will be four down when ash gets out

Rahim is batting very well at the moment. Ashraful looks like he's about to do something really stupid soon..

[slowfinger]

Remember when Ashraful came to our cricket club couple years back, when he wasn't too popular. All I was doing was asking him about his test series' against teams, and my mate just took his autograph and then got back to the nets.

[NZ Guy]

Rather impressed by this thought they would get rolled after those four wickets, good guts from ash amazingly and Mahmulludah

[NUFAN]

Ashraful just out for a very well made 75 from 94 balls. Started slowly, but was striking the ball superbly once he got his eye in. Pretty silly run out though, but Bangladesh have a decent chance to win this game. Sri Lankas attack isn't crash hot..

[slowfinger]

I reckon SL will easily get home, epecially without Mortaza to lead the attack.

[NUFAN]

Islam probably should have come in earlier, he smoked the Lankan bowling in that last over. LOL at him refusing to run on the second last ball of the innings though!

If Dilshan is out cheaply, I reckon Bangladesh will win.

[Migara]

All the players in SL side are excellent against spin. If openers make a good start, the middle order will push, prod and nurdle the spinners.

[Black_Warrior]

Ignore

[Black_Warrior]

Bangladesh got 260 odd..A tremendous effort

[Lostman]

Now Dilshan is injured.
I am not even sure if there is anyone left in the A squad to send to Bangladesh.

[Arjun]

For the next game, both India and SL should play weaker teams with reserve players, to try out before the final, and likewise the next match they play again. They can make the final by playing their best teams against Bangladesh and playing for big wins.
