ODI cricket and general cricketing discussion [self - mod]

It's an easy win for sirilankan team although Bangladesh bowler done a good job the the target were not enough to defend for thier bowler, Bangladesh can scored more than a current target but unfortunately no one stick long on a ground and due to insufficient partnership they unable to scored a big target like 250 around which could be a defendable target at sirilankan condition.
But anyway still Bangladesh has opportunity to comback stronger as they will face India, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Nepal. So they have alot opportunity but if they know how to utilize it properly by shuffling some player which really boost them against thier upcoming opponents.

Today match between Srilanka and Bangladesh was not an equal match.The Bangladesh should increase their batting strategies,if the team is not affordable to score 170 runs in 50 overs.I don’t know what to say on this,Bangladesh also had good batsman.This Asia Cup is the important one before the World Cup,if the Bangladesh will not score above the 200 or 250.They can just quit their game in this series.It’s the important one by the team like Bangladesh to score some good run in the Asia Cup.Without any good play,how the other Asian Nation will ask the tour to the Bangladesh to increase the performance of both the team before the World Cup.

This is a Problem with Bangladesh and actually a very long lasting problem. They are inconsistent, Bangladesh considering the performances they sometimes do and talents they harness in local leagues should easily be in top 5 cricketing nations but it's always their inconsistency that stops them from becoming a great team, in a few games they'll play like they have no competition and in a few as if they can't give competition.

The biggest problem for Bangladesh is they do not have other players ready to replace a player in the team if someone is not performing well. You know Bangladesh depends on certain players to perform well. That is the way and that has been the way Bangladesh has been playing for almost forever. If those players somehow do not perform Bangladesh cannot win. If I talk about the current situation, Right now Bangladesh does not even have reliable players to be honest. Shakib Al Hasan was not able to perform well in the first innings. And there was absolutely nobody to actually steady the ship for Bangladesh.

I will also say that it was a bad decision taken by Bangladesh to bat first. Because the track actually got better over time. But still, there is no excuse for how bad the performance was from Bangladesh.

Sri Lanka has won this match by 5 wickets.

It's an easy win for sirilankan team although Bangladesh bowler done a good job the the target were not enough to defend for thier bowler, Bangladesh can scored more than a current target but unfortunately no one stick long on a ground and due to insufficient partnership they unable to scored a big target like 250 around which could be a defendable target at sirilankan condition.
But anyway still Bangladesh has opportunity to comback stronger as they will face India, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Nepal. So they have alot opportunity but if they know how to utilize it properly by shuffling some player which really boost them against thier upcoming opponents.

The fact is that the Bangladeshi bowlers did not bowl worse than the Sri Lankan bowlers but the run target for Bangladesh was very insignificant which was not possible for the Bangladeshi bowlers to control at all.

If the batting of Bangladesh could have given a run target above 250 then it would have been possible for the Bangladeshi bowlers to control it. However, it has become difficult to confirm Bangladesh's knockout stage.
Sri Lanka must beat Afghanistan and Bangladesh must draw with Afghanistan. This equation will become much tougher for Bangladesh as currently Bangladesh is in worse form than Afghanistan.

Bangladesh Vs Srilanka 2nd Match of Asia Cup
The 2nd match between Sri Lanka and Bangladesh of the Asia Cup has Started. Bangladesh won the toss and decided to bat first the opener of Bangladeshi Tanzid Hasan out for a duck.

It's really bad performance from Bangladesh although they have won they and have a decent opportunity to scored a significant target at early stage, but unfortunately they hasn't done thier job properly. Just like journalist predict they will face huge trouble on sirilankan pitches as most of them are bowling friendly, but after injury new of few of thier quality spinner like hasaranga I taught Bangladesh will done some good target. But any way now it's up to Bangladesh bowling if they took important wicket before they build and big partnership then I am quite sure they will get into the game.

Bangladesh's top order batsmen failed miserably in today's match if only one player Nazmul Hasan Shanto didn't  score 89 runs Bangladesh score would have been under hundred. But one thing I always say is that those who are in charge of management of Bangladesh Cricket Board are corrupt. There are some wrong decisions of the management which the Bangladesh cricketers got proof of that wrong decision for today's match.

Sirlinka won this match by 5 wickets and chase down the 165 runs target in 39 overs.  While chasing down the target after 2 early wickets fall of Srilanka then Sadeera Samarawickrama played a good inning of 54 runs in 77 balls and along with Charith Asalanka also played a very sensible inning scoring half century of 62 runs unbeaten in 92 balls and helped his team to this victory. Matheesha Pathirana is the player of the match for his amazing performance picking important 4 wickets by Just giving 32 runs in 7.4 Overs. I think Bangladesh batsman just short 70 runs if the target is 220 plus then the match will be more interesting

As you know, Bangladesh is playing with some new youngsters and missing some good players like Tamim Iqbal and Liton Das. I believe Sri Lanka was the favorite host in this match, but we expected some between those teams. It's a failure of top-order batters. Even though we do not expect runs from tail-enders, they did worse, too. Bangladesh could have scored at least 220 on this surface.

Bangladeshi bowlers could have created more pressure on Sri Lanka because the pitch was bowling-friendly. They started very well, but they could not keep the pressure ON. Looking forward to the next match.

In my point of view both teams played well. Because if Bangladesh didn't make much runs but see that they got 5 wickets of Srilankan team and this is also a good achievement. And also pull them to 39 overs. If Bangladesh makes 250 runs so this would not be easy to chase by Srilanka.

By the way we have a big match tomorrow. I am waiting for it. Being a Pakistani I am in the favor of Pakistan. So let's see what the Pakistan will do.?

I think Sirlinka played very well his bowling performance was outclassed that why he restricted Bangladesh to under 170 runs especially Pathirana bowling who took 4 crucial wickets for Sirlinka. While its is bowling pitch bowl spinning too much but Bangladesh is 50 runs short of its total if they make 220 plus then Bangladesh have a chance to win this match. Although Bangladesh fight well and picked 5 wickets C harith Asalanka and Sadeera Samarawickrama nade fifties to take Sri Lanka home first Asia Cup win. Tomorrow Pakistan vs India big match of the Asia Cup both teams are very strong.

[Sithara007]

Everyone is waiting for the big match tomorrow. Both India and Pakistan can qualify to the Super-4 even if they lose tomorrow's match. But winning it will be a prestige issue for both the teams. And therefore both of them are fielding full-strength squads. Ishan Kishan will be keeping the wickets for India, but they also have Sanju Samson as the reserve player. The only one who is going to miss out is KL Rahul, who hasn't yet fully recovered from injury. And it will be interesting to watch Shreyas Iyer in action, as he had been out of action for more than 6 months.

Bangladesh team's Nazmul Hasan Shanto is the only good batting performance. But he was not helped by enough reverse batting. I mean since Nazmul Hasan Shanta almost every batsman was out so his pair was needed at least. Mushfiqur Rahim could not provide any support on behalf of the Bangladesh team but left the field after collecting only a few runs. The Sri Lankan team is very good in this regard. The two batsmen Asalanka and Sadeera took the Sri Lankan team to the top of the victory as their pair entered the field for a long time and scored huge runs. If such a pair would have survived for Bangladesh with Nazmul Islam Shant, then Bangladesh would have been the target of a big run.

The Asia Cup match that is at the center of interest is the third match of the Asia Cup between Pakistan and India. India vs Pakistan match is a different type of excitement where there is no way to predict which team will win. The XI announced by Pakistan last time against Nepal is undoubtedly Pakistan's best XI and against India Pakistan may go with the unchanged squad. I am just waiting to see the fast bowling line-up attack of both the teams as both the teams have fast bowling units but neither team is less than that. Shaheen Afridi Haris Rauf and Naseem Shah will lead Pakistan's fast bowling and Md Shami Mohammad Siraj and Jasprit Bhomra may lead India's fast bowling.

The way Bangladesh started there Asia Cup journey its very much clear that they are not interested in making it to super 4. Bangladesh would have been bowled out before 100 if Najmul Hossain Shanto had not scored 89 runs. Now if Afghanistan beat Bangladesh then they have more chances of making it to super 4.

For India and Pakistan, a win against each other is much more important than the cup itself. And they haven't met on an ODI for years now,
Statistically, Pakistan is the top ODI team at the moment and it's one of their best teams of this decade. All of this Asia cup holding debacle and the existing controversies around ICC and IPL means it would be a heated competition watched my many with interest.

India and Pakistan will play their first Asia Cup match. As we know Pakistan is on the top no. 1 position in ICC ranking so Pakistan has the chances to win this match. So let's see who will win. I hope Pakistan will win the match and will level up itself in the points table.

Series goes series comes the circus of BCB selectors continues in the field game it is proved again and again that there was a mistake in the selection. In almost every series, if a cricketer is injured or ill, the team sees darkness in their eyes, but Minhajul Abedin and Nannu don't have to be held accountable. Liton is said to be the main hope of the Tiger batting line, but the whole team is in a very bad condition due to fever and being knocked out of the Asia Cup. First of all wicket keeper Mushfiqur has no backup, all batsmen from number one to four are left-handed elephants. Which makes the plan of the opponent quite easy. Also, there is a crisis in the opening position due to the absence of Liton. Coach Hatri Singh and Captain Shakib Al Hasan wanted Enamul Vijay in the team. This kind of incident is not the first time in Bengal cricket but it is a daily thing but the question is if the coach and captain have to ask for players from outside the team then what is the job of the selection panel. After the danger came, Minhajul Abedin managed to catch Nannu if the patient died like this before the doctor arrived, what could happen to the team. Enamul Haque Vijay is now going to play in the Asia Cup and there are doubts about how much preparation he has for this game. For more than a decade, the cricketers have been suffering from such mockery of the selectors and the national team has to suffer the consequences. Even then, BCB does not find any fault in the selection team. In fact, there is no fault of team management here

Right brother if Bangladesh had succeeded in scoring 200 runs or more then there was much chance to win this match easily because if we see the SL score dashboard then they scored 165 runs in 39 overs and 11 overs were left then there was a tough match both of them. I believe that this match would be an interesting than the previous one Pak vs. NE. Now I am waiting for the next match between Pakistan and India. Both teams are good and strong. It is difficult to predict which one win the third match of the Asia Cup. I always supported Pakistan and still believe that PAK will win the match.

Lol. By that logic, India should have won a ton of cups by now. ICC rankings don't really matter much in high-stakes international tournaments like this cup, World Cup etc.

Both India and Pakistan have equal chances of winning(50:50). Hope it turns out to be a great encounter.

Lol. 200 runs wouldn't be enough since Sri Lanka looked like they could still chase it down easily. 250 would have been a competitive target making the match far more interesting in my opinion.

This Bangladesh team has the potential to perform much better, especially when it comes to their batting. They have the capability to score a few more runs and make the match more exciting. However, it's cricket and anything can happen. As for the India-Pakistan rivalry, it's just is over-hyped, just because of politics rather than purely sporting ones.

This match is between India vs Pakistan vs Rain Parera

We have to see who will win. The weather forecast indicates rain interruption and if it happens then it won't be a 100 overs contest but around 60-70 and if everything goes south then 20-20 overs.

Yes, rain is coming but this is not a piece of good news because we can only see Pakistan vs India in the tournaments and minimum 2 to 3 times in a single year, and if it is raining, it's very wrong for cricket fans.

This is more a just a cricket match it's time for PAK vs IND. The Greatest Rivalry!!
