ODI cricket and general cricketing discussion [self - mod]

Bangladesh is currently in a very good position in the ICC Men's Cricket World Cup Super League. Bangladesh is currently at number three in the points table of the Super League, leaving teams like India, Pakistan, Australia and South Africa behind. Bangladesh's incredible success in ODI cricket. 

Currently, Bangladesh is having its best time in ODI cricket.  After playing 24 matches, New Zealand has 175 points in the Super League and England has 155 points after playing the same number of matches. And after playing 23 matches, Bangladesh is at the third position in the points table with 145 points. 

Asia Cup and ODI World Cup are going to be held in the future. If Bangladesh can maintain this consistency, then maybe the fans of Bangladesh can expect a trophy in a big tournament.

The Bangladesh cricket team is currently pushing itself forward tremendously. Maybe they want to do something great in the next World Cup. In fact, my personal opinion is that the type of game that Bangladesh team has, they are well qualified, if they are properly trained and practiced, then this team will become a much better team.

Already Bangladesh team is in good position. Even with the leading teams the performance is no down in means. In recent ODI matches against India and England, Bangladesh were good and won the series against India. Even with England they won a match and the other two matches were close. The country gives good support to its players, moreover the upcoming World Cup being hosted by India gives them an added advantage to perform better as both the countries have the similar weather conditions.

Climate of Bangladesh and India are very similar. The problem that Asian countries face when playing in Australia, Africa or England conditions, I hope that playing in India will not be a problem for Asian teams because the conditions of most of the Asian countries are similar. I think Chandika Hathurusingha, the current coach of Bangladesh, is playing the biggest role behind such a change in Bangladesh.  Because since he joined Bangladesh as the new coach, Bangladesh has started playing fearless cricket. 

Before that, Russell Domingo has been serving as the head coach of Bangladesh for a long time but he was not able to contribute well for the Bangladesh team even though he was hired by BCB with a huge amount of money. Later BCB appointed Chandika Hathurusingha as the head coach of Bangladesh instead and under him Bangladesh is currently doing very well.

That's right Bangladesh have shown great improvement in last year and won almost all the major series which led them to move upwards in points table .
Now this series with Ireland is like cherry on top and they are gaining more points,  their batting side is marvellous which is their strength too.

Ireland captain decided to field after winning the toss in the third and last ODI match against Bangladesh. Today, Bangladesh has entered the field against Ireland with three changes. 
Shakib Al Hasan has been dropped from the team due to injury and Taijul Islam and Shariful Islam have been dropped from the team due to poor performance. Two new players have been introduced in their place, Rony Talukder has been introduced in place of Shakib Al Hasan, Mrittunjoy Chowdhury has been introduced in place of Taijul Islam and Mustafizur Rahman has been dropped in place of Shariful Islam due to his poor bowling in the last match. 

Bangladesh are now batting where Bangladesh have already managed to collect 62 runs in 9.4 overs. Only one wicket fell and that was Rony Talukder.

Ireland may have made a good decision. Because Ireland could not win even after scoring 319 runs in the last match. As such they will want to chase and expect to win. Today, Ireland won the toss and accepted that decision. I think if they can restrict Bangladesh to 320 runs then there will be a chance of a draw in the match. However, the current Bangladesh batting is doing quite well so there is a possibility of more runs. As a result, according to the playing conditions, Ireland is likely to lose this match.

Bangladesh are going good so far, as at the end of 23rd over they have scored 135 runs and lost only 2 wickets. Bangladesh will defiantly try to score around 300 runs today to win this series. I don't know what will be ideal target which Ireland will be able to chase successfully. We saw Irish bowlers failed in last game to defend a target of 320 runs. The problem with Ireland is when there batter performs there bowling fails and vice verse.

I am highly confident that Bangladesh will secure victory in the next match as well. Because in the second match, the players of the Bangladesh team have gained great confidence. But Ireland will try hard.

What happened to Bangladesh's batting order? 4 wickets were lost for only 176 runs after the 32nd over. I did not expect such poor batting by the Bangladesh team. I hope they recover and put on a decent target of 250 or more for Ireland. The only good news is that Tamim Iqbal is still batting. He needs to continue as long as he can. The need of this hour is that both the Captain and WK should form a partnership.

Bangladesh is playing well, they have wickets in hand. Najmul Hossain Shanto scored good in the last match but not so much in this match even 35 is not bad. Because every day the game will not be the same. Instead of Najmul Hossain Shanto, today team captain Tamim Iqbal may have taken that responsibility. He has already scored 69 runs and if he plays with confidence, he might have a chance to score a century. At this moment, the current run rate in favor of Bangladesh stands at 5.61. If Tamim Iqbal can last up to 40 overs then expecting a big score in the match and that will not be easy for Ireland to chase.

The slow pace batting at the England venue is not enough for a high target, especially given the way Ireland set Bangladesh a target of 320 runs in 45 overs in the second ODI, if Bangladesh can't set Ireland a target of 350 runs in today's game, it will be difficult for Bangladesh to snatch a win in today's match. . Because if the target is below 350 runs on a batting assisted pitch at the England venueOf course Ireland will win because Ireland's players perform brilliantly on this pitch. Bangladesh captain Tamim Iqbal performed very poorly in the first two matches but in today's match Tamim Iqbal is in good form and the top run scorer for Bangladesh team, Mushfiqur Rahim performed brilliantly in the first and second matches. This pair of Tamim Iqbal and Mushfiqur Rahim for the Bangladesh teamToday's run target will go above 350 if it can bring a big collection.

Till now at 40 overs Bangladesh has scored 219 runs with loss of 5 wickets the runrate is good but this pitch is for batsman and with that this runrate is bit low . Still Bnagladesh have 10 overs left and they can make the most of these overs and give target of 300 which Ireland have to chase.

Bangladesh's innings ended at 274 runs. At the beginning of the game, the run rate was around 7 until the first 20 overs, from there the batsmen could have made this score a little bigger if they wanted. 
As in the second ODI match, no one could bat responsibly for Bangladesh today.

Although Tamim Iqbal, Mushfiqur Rahim, Mehidy Hasan, Liton Das, Nazmul Hossain Shanto made small efforts, the score of Bangladesh finally reached 278 runs. Had Mushfiqur Rahim and Mehidy Hasan not given away their wickets like this, some more runs would have come towards the end. 

While Ireland scored 320 plus runs against Bangladesh in 45 overs, Bangladesh scored 278 runs in 50 overs.  It remains to be seen how long Bangladesh will fight against Ireland with a capital of only 278 runs.

A dramatic turn of events in this match! Bangladesh were looking strong at 261/5 in 45.2 overs, but then bowled out for 274. They lost their remaining 5 wickets for just 13 runs. It's a really unfortunate turn of events for Bangladesh.

Ireland must be feeling confident as their target of 275 runs. Credit must go to the Irish bowlers, but special thanks go to Mark Adair for his impressive 4-wicket. Now it's all up to the Irish batters, they have a chance to win this match.

Earlier on, Ireland won the toss and opted to bowl, and it's good to say that their decision paid off. Their bowlers executed their plans perfectly, and it's clear that Bangladesh were at least 30-35 runs short in their innings.

[Rigon]

After losing the toss and batting first, Bangladesh collected 274 runs losing all the wickets in 48 overs 5 balls. Tamim Iqbal scored maximum 69 runs for the team in today's match. This opener batsman was unsuccessful in the first two matches. Not just this series, the skipper has not had any collection of big runs with the bat for a long time.  But Tamim Iqbal managed to score a half century after 9 months in the last match of Ireland. Bangladesh did not perform well from the start in today's match. At the moment, Ireland have collected 54 runs with the loss of 1 wicket from 3 balls in 10 overs. If Ireland can play with wickets in this match today then Ireland can win this match. As Bangladesh's collection is not much in today's match.

[Dimitri94]

Ireland team playing well so if they can play with this way they can easily win this match. If they win against Bangladesh, it is nothing less for them at the moment. Already 21 overs game is over they collect more then 100. if they can play stress free, then they will definitely win this match. Because the target is not too big.

Ireland can save their wicket but cannot collect runs according to the over.  They still need 159 runs in 26 overs where they scored just 116 runs in 24 overs. Ireland's performance does not look like they can overcome the target given by Bangladesh to win the match But like all the teams they are trying hard to win the match by collecting runs but till now they could not collect the possible runs but in the last stage of the game there is so much doubt whether they can successfully collect runs and win the match.

True, Ireland have already played 30 overs and have scored 138 and it seems unlikely that they will be able to score 137 in the remaining 20 overs. H.Tector and P.Stirling are now batting but neither player is getting good runs.  Doheny was dismissed for just 4 runs off 16 balls.  Ireland's players are only wasting overs but not connecting good quality runs. so despite getting a low run target, Ireland are not able to exploit their opportunities.  So Bangladesh still seems to have high potential to win

Bangladesh ended on 274 and I have to mention that there are 26 extra given from Ireland. Without that, Bangladesh wouldn't have been able to reach 250. The late middle order and low order absolutely performed badly in this match.

Right now Ireland is doing well to keep wickets in hand. Bangladesh is not being able to get regular wickets like Ireland did. Ireland needs 119 from 17.4 overs. Even though the required run rate is almost at 7, I would say that it is still doable with having 7 wickets in hand.

I was expecting another 300+ from Bangladesh, but sadly most of the batsmen were overconfident after winning second ODI, so they have not positive contribution and all gone without any good contribution Tamim and Mushfiqur done good job for having target like this but right now Ireland is having control in this match, and they are doing pretty good job for levelling series even required rate is over 7, but things are good for the Ireland to chase this target and fightback for the draw of this series with right now Tucker and Tector both are doing batting, and we have just 110 runs from 15 remaining overs.

Mehidy Hasan Miraz can do something for his team as right now he is in his 8th over and have just 21 runs with the claim of one wicket of Paul Stirling which is most experienced Irish batsman.

Ireland are in very good position to win this game and level the series 1-1. They need 49 runs in 44 balls with 5 wickets in hands. After doing all the hard work Ireland are losing wickets in quick succession. Its a game very much in favor of Ireland but if they keep losing wickets like that then they are likely to lose this game. Its a good opportunity for Ireland to draw an ODI series against a test playing side.

The way Ireland started their innings I thought Ireland would win today's match very easily. They collected 109 runs in the second wicket pair. But at the end of 45 overs, the Ireland team collected 237 runs after losing 6 wickets. Ireland needs 38 runs from 30 balls. It doesn't seem easy to me. Lorcan Tucker and McBrine are batting at the crease. If Tucker can stay at the crease then Ireland has a chance of winning. But the bowling of Bangladesh's bowlers is now very controlled. They want to win the series 2-0. Bangladesh will try their best to win the match.
