Match #44- Super Eights, Australia vs Bangladesh (N), Sir Vivian Richards Cricket Stadium, Antigua-- June 20th- Group 1

Litton Das' innings was disgraceful btw.

 

[Burgey]

Be interesting to see how Bangladesh bowl on this pitch. Mustafizr could be a nightmare.

They'll only bowl for about 13.1 overs, unless the game is shortened due to this rain.

 

[Burgey]

When you look back at moments of abject sporting shame for your country, Australia obviously has very few compared with most countries but one is definitely losing that ODI to Bangladesh before the 2005 Ashes. Up there with losing home series to India as a point of national disgrace.

Been really impressed with how we've rotated our pacers this tourney. Selectors have shown a ton of faith in Ellis and played Cummins on the perfect decks for his cutters.

Nah they'll bowl for 17.4 based on my calculations.

Do Bangladesh have noone better? I like him but he's been abject for ages.

No excuse for this innings up front. Was clearly playing for himself.

Winning runs hit in the 16th over

Mushfiqur even at his old age would have been choice, especially going over the top during the PP.

Sarkar is better vs pace too but is clueless vs spin.

In the ODI world cup Mehidy opened, I wouldn't have minded selecting him.

Tanzid probably isn't ready for international cricket but they have to persistent with him.

We have few others but it looks like we are afraid of giving them chances. After the world cup we should look into Zakir, Parvez Emon.

What's the rationale for him missing out?

Right after the ashes too

before actually *

What's the rationale for him missing out?

Hes more like run a ball player and weak against good pace. Starc would have got him first ball

 

[cricman]

Also the running between the wickets for Bangladesh was poor. No sense of urgency, just really pathetic.

Bangladesh really need a Dave Warner in their side. That type of leader to give a kick up their arses, even cheat.

 

[Arachnodouche]

Banglas blow their load in games against SL. Everything after that is a comedown.

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

Looks like we are 60 short here

 

[cricman]

Does DL method help Bangladesh with the net run rate at least?

 

[Nintendo]

I really like Rishad. He's the polar opposite of what bangladesh usually produce. Legspinner who can wack the ball.

Marsh has been **** with the bat. How’s his captaincy been?

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

Marsh would feel a bit unlucky there. Was sliding in naked eye
