I hope it gives the Bangladesh players exposure to a more professional environment, even if it's more through the training and coaches rather than the games themselves.

Seems to be a rather anomalous innings from Mahmudullah going by his career strike rate...


Yeah pretty much this. There's the usual worries of spot fixing and the fear of the comp collapsing at any second, but you know it might inspire Banga youngsters to take up pace bowling if someone really stars or something. I don't really see the harm.

barisal's playing twice in two days, gayle's on 30*, shiz

i don't blame shehzad for looking pissed off, i would be too if i couldn't hit razzaq for six every ball

also good umpire, must want to watch gayle

was a pretty thick edge tbf

****s sake gayle's looked like **** ever since i started watching, culminating in his dismissal, ****balls

These leagues is what Symonds and Flintoff probably thought of how they were going to make money when they ended their international careers. It's ironic that it's Gayle who's living the mercenary lifestyle but he's being blackballed from playing international cricket.
This.....

700K is probably what Afridi would have gotten even in the IPL. Pretty good deal for Afridi for just 3 weeks.

btw how many games would Afridi play since he will be playing for Pakistan in Dubai. In case he gets paid pro-rated doesn't he miss out on most of the money?

Yea the West Indies players have been slaughtering the ball in this tournament. Gayle 62* out of 81/3 off 10, has hogged the strike a bit but still. Needs to do a lot more of that mind if he's going to finish on the winning side.

Wouldn't put it past him.

Doesn't it singe the testicles to have beast mode engaged for so long?

Ahmad Shehzad has reprimanded for arguing with the curator.
This kid has a serious attitude problem.

How much bowling is Abdul Razzaq (the Pakistani) getting done? There are reports that he's pulled a fast one on the PCB.

Razzaq is Pakistani. Razzak is Bangladeshi. You really didn't need that bracket.
