18th Match - Bangladesh v Sri Lanka

[viriya]

Great knock.. one of his better ODI knocks.

 

[viriya]

Should be enough. Did not expect Sanga to go so well, good to see.

Nah Sanga, always loves to smash the Banglas...havent seen our innings but the scorecard is very pleasing and will catch up with our bowling later on. This total should be a winnign one but lets see. No surprise to me to that the "superstar" Shakib didnt pick up a single wicket(again)- he is highly overrated to me..I am sure that Herath will come back with better figures..

Wonder why Bangladesh set up to have Taskin bowl the 50th over?

Unfair on Shakib imo. He bowled well and was forced to bowl in the last 10 as well but still ended up with <60 runs off his 10. I watched the whole game and he just had no support from the other end. I do think Herath is a better bowler, but that's not saying a lot considering Shakib is Bangladesh's best batsman as well.

Sri Lanka must be wondering why haven't they picked Senanayake or Chameera in place of Mendis.

Was ridiculous to go with 7 specialist batsman - it doesn't help them get 350 and if the Big 4 fail Chandi/Karu/Thiri won't do much to win you the game either.

 

[Sarun]

Mathews, Perrera & Dilshan to share 20 overs. Mathews on his day is very tight & Dilshan is handy. Seems like Perrera might go for runs even with wickets.

Can't see BD getting anywhere close to this.

 

[viriya]

The fielding woes are contagious.

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

Soumya looks class

 

[viriya]

Lakmal has lost it since that drop - SL need to be careful all their specialists need to bowl out here.

 

[viriya]

Good to see Malinga pushing 140+ kph again.

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

Need to get the confidence back after dismal start

 

[anil1405]

Haha...Jayawardene questioning the umpire again on a decision that has gone against his team.

 

[YorksLanka]

If we lose our review bcos of a lack of snicko, that is absolute balls

Or is he questioning why we should lose out on a decision because someone forgot to plug in the snicko mics? That's ridiculous

 

[cnerd123]

Eh he was out next ball anyways.

Oh right SL lost their review. Damn that's not fair at all.

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

Don't understand the order here pushing Shakib and Mushfiq so far down

That's exactly my point as well as this is the second time we have been denied a DRS decision because an element of it wasn't working- not wanting to sound all BCCI here but it should be all or nothing..
