ODI cricket and general cricketing discussion [self - mod]

[Shishir99]

Bangladesh Opener Mohammad Naim is trying to play a Test Match because he thinks about his career. There is no need to think about the team yet Bangladeshi selectors talk about Mahmudullah Riyad's strike rate. This guy is already competing for the general position of Bangladesh Lords association and Bangladeshi Captain decided to give him another chance to prove himself. This guy playing with a incredible strike rate of  52.63 at this moment. He played a superb innings of 20 runs from 38 balls so far. I would like to see him score 40 runs from the next 100 balls and he will be safe for another ten matches! Is this guy become an auto choice?

Bangladesh come out to bat and they have already lost two wickets, it is difficult to say how well the Bangladesh batsmen will bat today to reach the target given by Sri Lanka. Bangladesh has already lost two wickets for which Bangladesh is currently under pressure. Sri Lankan bowler Dasun Shanaka's bowling is excellent due to which he has already taken two wickets. The run rate of Bangladesh has decreased due to the dismissal of two Bangladeshi batsmen, Mohammad Naim and Mehidy Hasan Miraz. But right now Bangladesh batsman Liton Das and Shakib Al Hasan are at the crease, if they can bat well then they can reach the goal of victory. Of course, it is important for Bangladesh to win today's match against Sri Lanka. If Bangladesh cannot win today's match, then they will definitely be eliminated from the Asia Cup. According to that today Bangladesh need to win the match against Sri Lanka and Sri Lanka could not collect much runs so Bangladesh can definitely win if they try.

Glad to see that Australia finally gave a place in the team for Marnus Labuschagne in the ODI team and he scored another match changing century along with David Warner and a century from Warner proved that he will be a fixture till the World Cup. South African bowlers we taken apart as the target for them is 392 and this is going to be another huge loss for them before the World Cup.

[Shishir99]

As I posted Earlier, The opening batter of Bangladesh Mohammad Naim played a Match eating performance. He scored a massive 21 runs from 46 balls and did not manage to continue his innings. He is far ahead of Afif and Shahim Patwary at this moment. He is going to get the General position of Bangladesh Lords association and of course he is going to play against India as well.

If you talk about the match situation. This is does not look good at all for Bangladesh. They lose the first four wickets and did not manage to score hundred runs yet. Another batting collapse for Bangladesh and I am not surprised at all.

Bangladesh lost 4 wickets and score total  of 85 runs in 21 overs. the best batsman Shakib al hasan, Liton Das got out quickly. Shakib Al Hasan score only 3 run it is really funny. Liton Das score only 15. Bangladesh is now weakened and today's match is also going to loss Bangladesh. And if they lose today's match, they won't need to play against India. Many may have expected a lot from Bangladesh but they lost all the matches very badly. It is shameful for Bangladesh team also Bangladesh

The selling point for the Asia Cup is the matches between India and Pakistan and therefore, they have made decisions, only for this match.

Well, to be honest, that's the reason why the Asia Cup exists atm. However, it seems to have turned into a bilateral series between India and Pakistan, with a guaranteed minimum of two matches and possibly a final as well. The group system also gives us an idea of how broadcasters are dictating their terms, but we can't really blame them either since they are paying millions of dollars for the rights.

Srilanka is looking strong at the moment in the match against Bangladesh and most probably they will win this match. That will keep Bangladesh out of the finals.

If somehow Srilanka can win one of the matches they played against Pakistan or India and one or more matches may end up in a draw because of the rain, Srilanka can still reach the finals destroying this bilateral series dream final between India and Pakistan

Bangladesh will not be able to do better in this year's Asia Cup, so we should not talk about them anymore.  Bangladesh game now looks boring. how the good players of the Bangladesh team get out so quickly that their supporters expect better things from them. Such worst game of Bangladesh is seen sometimes.  Many times they are seen playing violently like tigers. But they cannot maintain good performance for long

[LDL]

Srilanka is looking strong at the moment in the match against Bangladesh and most probably they will win this match. That will keep Bangladesh out of the finals.

Positive points for Bangladesh in today's match were to win but that chance is slowly diminishing due to Bangladesh's top order batsmen not performing well. But if Bangladesh can't win today's low scoring target of 258 runs then what else can I expect as a supporter for Bangladesh. Bangladesh started the batting well in the beginning but since the dismissal of Shakib Al Hasan and Liton Das, Bangladesh have been under great pressure. Now Tawheed Hriday and Bangladesh's most reliable batsman Mushfiqur Rahim are on the wicket. If these two can build a long partnership for Bangladesh then Bangladesh can win today's match.

[Cheema02]

In 2nd ODI Australia posted 392 In loss of 8 wickets in 50 overs vs South Africa. Australia played very well especially David Warner scored a century of 106 runs in 93 balls, Marnus Labuschagne also played and brilliantly knocked 124 runs unbeaten in just 99 balls and helped his team to post a high total of 392 runs for South Africa. South Africa had poor bowling in this match except Tabraiz Shamsi who picked 4 important wickets of Australia by just giving 61 runs in 10 overs. I think South Africa lost this match by a huge margin the chance of South Africa winning this match is very low.

Surely Srilanka now at the top of this match .They have shown how to play .Bangladesh are continnuesly loosing with big team .They are really surviving on batting nevertheless they don’t want to call one of the best player of Bangladesh Mahmudullah Riyadh .On the other hand Bangladesh opener are loosing their wicket so early in all matches they played on Asia Cup .Surely they have many lack in all section specially on batting .If they continue it they will be out so early on World Cup as well .If experience player like Shakib throw wicket like this how this team could do better .I think they may loose this match as well and out from this tournament .It’s not expected from team like Bangladesh who are playing for many years ,They even not gain any international cup yet as much as i know (If wrong please correct me ) .However they need to do better in the future and pass more time on practice and choose much better player .If they don’t work behind the match they will be a team like Keneya as we all know it was good country who played many international matches but they now have lost everything ,Even not able to qualify any international tournament .Hope nothing will be happen like this .

Look like you are underestimating the Bangladesh cricket team at the moment. Mushfiour and Hridoy have together put up a 50-runs partnership and they are slowly but steadily coming back in this match. Still, I would say that the target of 258 runs is not so much. In Bangladesh batsmen do not lose wickets and reach the 40th over mark, I guess their chances will further increase to win.

From Sri Lankan's perspective, they need one or two quick wickets. If they are unable to get any wickets in the next 2 to 3 overs, I think the balance of the game will shift entirely to the Bangladesh team.

All to play for, for both teams at the moment. Both can win the game from here.

South African bowlers we taken apart as the target for them is 392 and this is going to be another huge loss for them before the World Cup.

I was watching South Africa's poor performance in the T20 series. I thought the team might perform well in the ODI format. But the team's performance in ODI matches is also very poor. The team was defeated in the first match as well and South Africa is going to be defeated by a huge margin in today's match. Australia team has given a huge target of 393 runs. Batting against this run is impossible against current South Africa. South Africa collected 144 runs in 20 overs. This is quite a good collection. The team scored more than 7 runs per over. But they lost four wickets. It is not possible to win by losing wickets so fast and batting for a big target.

As I expected a good performance from Bangladesh, they did not perform as well. The pitch was spin bowling friendly. But spin bowlers can't show their strength today. We haven't seen a better performance today than Shakib and Miraz.

Bangladesh managed to collect 177 runs at the end of 40 overs. They have lost 5 wickets. Towhid Hridoy remains unbeaten with 65 runs. The team needs more than 80 runs to say 60. If Hridoy stays at the crease, Bangladesh has a chance to win. But if Hridoy is out then Bangladesh will lose today's match too. Bangladesh team was in good form. Even then they are not doing well in the Asia Cup.

The South African team is batting at a much larger target. It's much harder and harder. Still the South African batsmen are trying. South Africa lost 4 key batsmen very quickly. If Dussen and Marakram could have batted a little better, South Africa's chances of winning might have increased. But the performance of these two players was not good. The team collected 171 runs in 24 overs. Heinrich Klaasen remains unbeaten with 45 off 28 balls. Dawid Miller is batting very carefully. He remains unbeaten with 12 runs off 19 balls. If Klaasen is able to pick up the wicket, Australia will have no problem in winning this match. However, apart from Nathan Ellis and Zampa, the performance of Australia's other bowlers is not good.

However, even as a Bangladeshi supporter, I was not expecting Bangladesh to perform well today because I was disappointed by the performance of the last match. However, the players of Bangladesh did not leave to make the heart patient of the Bangladeshi supporters.
At first the way Sri Lanka were batting I thought Sri Lanka might cross 300.
 But I saw that since the target gave 258, then I kept a hope.  Then Bangladesh but the batting performance was fairly good in the beginning and then wickets fell again. Touhid Hriday took the lead in the match, still the record as I see it I am worried that Bangladesh won't win today but as it continues it gives me excitement that Bangladesh can win.  And as a mixed reaction I would say Sri Lanka will win today.

Most of us expect from Bangladesh that they Gona be victorious against sirilankan and will secure some good points but they have some problem of bad top order batting start which they really repeat against sirilanka after Pakistan, if they work on such weak zone and took a strong start in his upcoming matches then I am sure that they will be qualified to lasts round, Now still they can get into the game if the only performer Towhid Hridoy scored some good runs because they have small difference between required ball and runs, but the only things which should his partner do is to just provide a satisfaction of not losing his wicket because he has not only fear of chasing required runs but also fear of losing wickets of partner tale under batters.

South African batsmen are batting better than I expected. South Africa has collected 199 runs in 30 overs. They need 194 runs to win in 20 overs. Had South Africa not lost wickets too quickly, they would have won. But I thought South Africa's innings would stop before 250. Because the team scored 222 runs in the first ODI match. Compared to the first match, South Africa's batting performance is much better today. But no batsman could stay at the crease for long. If the batsmen could have played a big innings, the team would have been able to collect more than 350.

[TheSpiral]

The current position of match is that Bangladesh got 236 runs in 48 overs and Nine players are out. They need 22 runs in 12 ball so the match is very tough.

There is a great chance for Sri Lanka to win the match Nine players of Bangladesh are out and this one wicket can be taken any time. In todays match saqib ul hassan did not play well and out by getting only 3 runs.

[3kpk3]

Pathirana and Theekshana do it again along with Shanaka this time around. What would Sri Lanka do without these two splendid bowlers. They won 13 freaking matches on the trot now which is impressive.

The biggest reason that Bangladesh lost in my opinion is because Shakib didn't perform on the day that his team needed him the most.

The winning streak of Sri Lanka is going to end either against India or against Pakistan. Bangladesh has lost the game for the failure of the top order. Apart from Towhid Hridoy and Mushfiqur Rahim, no batsmen have played an innings which can contribute to the win. Bangladesh has no chance to qualify for the final now. This is quite funny that Bangladesh team management still giving chances to Naim Sheikh even though he is performing badly in every game.
