ODI cricket and general cricketing discussion [self - mod]

[Bluedrem]

It is foolish to expect good batting from Bangladeshi batsmen. This team's batsmen always bat like idiots. Sometimes they are able to do well in 2/1 matches. Bangladeshi won every match in the T20 series. But we have seen irregular batting of Bangladeshi batsmen. Their batting has become weaker in the ODI series. Especially after Afghanistan gave a target of 191 runs in the second match, we thought Bangladesh would win. But despite batting for this small target, Bangladesh lost by a big margin of 81 runs. It is very boring to enjoy the matches of this team.

In modern cricket, most teams can easily score 220-30 runs in T20s and win, but Bangladeshi batsmen cannot score 190 runs in a 50-over match like ODIs, which is a shame for Bangladeshi cricket. If you do the math, you will see that they had to score less than four runs per over to win, but none of the Bangladeshi batsmen could bat responsibly, they were just going back and forth. I can say with 100% guarantee that if Bangladesh continues to bat like this, no matter how well Bangladeshi bowlers bowl, they will never win a match. Bangladeshi cricket management should exclude those who are consistently performing poorly from the team, include some other batsman in the team and increase their practice sessions. So that every player becomes more proficient in batting.

However, the Bangladesh team's batting lineup is very atrocious at the moment, and I think fining the players for this will not work. Moreover, instead of doing this, the Bangladesh Cricket Board can simply pull out those who are playing poorly and give a chance to others who are performing well.

The batting line-up is quite good there, but the mentality of the batsmen is very poor. Which is the primary reason for their pathetic performance. There isn't too much alternative left. The cricket board usually gives opportunities to the players before dropping them from the squad. And Bangladeshi players keep playing badly despite getting so many opportunities. How pathetically they have performed in the 2nd ODI match! They have failed to chase the target of 191 runs only.

I don't really know from what point you are saying that the batting line-up of the Bangladesh team is quite good. I have seen many of my friends commenting like you after that T20 Series  . But to be honest, the fact that the Bangladesh team has performed well in the T20 series but their batting is not that good, exception is that we have seen some good performance in the last match.

And speaking of the ODI format, in the last few years, I haven't noticed any good batsmen in the Bangladesh team, where previously the Bangladesh team was ranked between 6th-8th in the ICC rankings. Bangladesh is currently in the 10th position. And I think this is only because the batting lineup of the Bangladesh team is bad, and the result of this may be that in the future, when playing the World Cup, the Bangladesh team will have to play matches again to qualify.

I wasn't saying it based on their performance in the T20 series. Bangladesh has won the T20 series, but all credit goes to their bowlers. In the ODI squad, Shanto, Miraz, Hridoy and Tamim are experienced enough, also they have the capability to play a good innings. Saif Hassan can be considered as a good batsman too based on his recent performance. Apart from them, Sohan and Jaker Ali were in the squad as batsmen. This is why I considered the squad as good. But they don't play with responsibilities and confidence. I won't be surprised if Bangladesh gets whitewashed in the ODI series.

I think Bangladesh will have to play the qualifiers to qualify for the 2027 World Cup. As far as I know, if Bangladesh wants to participate directly in the 2027 World Cup, then Bangladesh will have to be at number 9 in the ICC rankings, which may not be possible for Bangladesh. Actually, Bangladesh was quite strong in the ODI format in the past, but currently they are losing one match after another in the ODI format. I saw in the news that Bangladesh has lost 10 matches out of the last 11 matches, which is very disappointing. Yes, Bangladesh has lost one match after another due to the failure of the batsmen. I miss some players, like Tamim, Mushfiqur, Mahmudullah and Shakib, during their time Bangladesh was strong in the ODI format.

Anyway, tomorrow Bangladesh will lose again and get whitewashed in the series, lol.

[Compromise me]

After Bangladesh performed well in the T20 series, it was expected that Bangladesh would do well in the ODIs as well. Because the bangladesh team was quite strong in the odi  format. But we saw bangladesh's poor performance in both ODI matches.

Afghanistan had given a target of only 191  runs. But even then Bangladesh lost by a big margin. Bangladesh lost this match  by a margin of 81 runs. Bangladesh lost all their wickets after scoring only 109  runs in 28.3 overs. Every batsman of Bangladesh batted like a fool

That was a low score match but Afghanistan bowlers gave great effort in this match and we saw one sided match as Rashid Khan took 5 important wickets in this match when it was requirement of the team . He applied pressure on the batters when they tried to build Partnership in this match and we saw back to back wickets in this match. Azmatullah Omarzai was a person who took 3 wickets in this match and he was a player who took 2 important wickets at the start when that was requirement of the match and we saw no game by players of Bangladesh. We expected more from Bangladesh but they proved that they are small team and they do not want upper position in the ranking and they lost the series.

I won't disagree with what you said, but my point is that there were five top players before Bangladesh. I mean the Tamim, Shakib, Musfik, Mahmudullah, and Masrafi. I always compare the current players with them, and in this aspect of comparison, I don't think anyone is better. And that's basically, my point is that I don't see any good batsmen in the Bangladesh team at the moment.
I don't want to comment on others, but as a batsman, Saif Hassan can be seen as the future Tamim Iqbal or even better.

Bangladesh won all the T20 games against Afghanistan but now in the ODI matches, Bangladesh are struggling and Afghanistan dominating in each game.

They have won the one day series and today is going to be the last match. By the way to be honest I think Bangladesh to win this game, because they were doing so good in the T20 games so right now they should focus on the crucial factors such as try to score as much as possible in the power play and do not waste the middle overs. To go with single or double is a good rather than having dot balls and losing wickets. But also remember to not to lower the run rate too much.

[Swordsoffreedom]

Bangladesh is going to face Afghanistan in the last match of the series today. We have seen Bangladesh win all the matches of the T20 series. But they lost the first two odi  matches. Will we see the same result in the last match?

Bangladesh lost both the matches due to their poor batting. So I would say the result of the match will depend on the performance of the Bangladeshi batsmen. In the second match , South africa gave a target of only  191 runs. But Bangladesh's collection was only 109  runs. Although the Bangladeshi batsmen played a little well in T20, they batted very badly in  the ODI format. If the performance of the batsmen does not improve, Bangladesh will lose the last match as well.

Bangladesh has been batting in a Test style since the beginning, so not scoring many runs in the power play overs is the biggest obstacle for Bangladesh. Moreover, giving too many dot balls in the middle overs is also Bangladesh's biggest mistake. Getting out when trying to hit Rashid Khan's ball and getting run out when trying to score unnecessary runs where no runs were needed were some of Bangladesh's mistakes. Now, if Bangladesh does not repeat the mistakes they made in the past in today's match, then maybe Bangladesh can win today and avoid a whitewash.

Bangladesh Vs Afghanistan

Bangladesh vs Afghanistan UAE 2025 3rd ODI match will be held today at 6 pm Bangladesh time. Before the start of this ODI series, we have seen three consecutive T20 series where Afghanistan lost all three matches to Bangladesh and got whitewashed. Afghanistan started the three-match ODI series with Bangladesh after getting whitewashed in the T20 series and played two matches of the three-match ODI series and Afghanistan won both matches and Bangladesh lost to Afghanistan in both matches. If Bangladesh cannot turn around in the third match today and cannot win against Afghanistan, then Bangladesh will get whitewashed by Afghanistan in the three-match ODI series. However, Bangladesh will have to perform well to save themselves from the whitewash, otherwise they will lose to Afghanistan today and get whitewashed. But do you think Bangladesh will be able to win against Afghanistan today?

Afghanistan won the toss and elected to bat. In the second match, we saw that Afghanistan was able to secure a big win by batting first. Despite giving a small target, Afghanistan won by a big margin of 81 runs. Afghanistan will want the same result in today's match as well.

I agree with you that if Bangladesh wants to win the match, their batsmen will definitely have to play well. If the batsmen do not do well, they have no chance of winning. We have seen very bad batting by Bangladeshi batsmen in both the ODI matches. It is impossible to predict when the batsmen of this team will be able to perform well.

Bangladesh is going to face Afghanistan in the last match of the series today. We have seen Bangladesh win all the matches of the T20 series. But they lost the first two odi  matches. Will we see the same result in the last match?.

I think we will see the same result today, Bangladesh may lose by a big margin. Bangladesh batsmen are not improving themselves, they are failing regularly. I think Bangladesh batsmen lack practice. Bowlers are doing well regularly, which is very commendable.

However, Afghanistan won the toss and decided to bat. Bangladesh came out with 4 changes, Nahid Rana, Hasan Mahmud, Mohammad Naim, Shamim Hossain were given a chance. However, I think if Afghanistan can give a target of 200+ runs, then it will not be possible for Bangladesh to chase. Let's see how many runs Afghanistan can score.

[Fuso.hp]

Bangladesh lost the series against Afghanistan after losing the first two matches shamefully. Today is the third and last ODI match between Bangladesh vs Afghanistan where Afghanistan will take the field today with the intention of whitewashing Bangladesh while Bangladesh will try to avoid the shame of whitewashing.

 Based on the performance of Bangladesh against Afghanistan in the first two matches, I do not see much possibility of Bangladesh winning. In T20s, Bangladesh might have been able to play Rashid Khan's four overs but in the ODI series, Bangladesh batsmen are not able to handle Rashid Khan's 10 overs and they are under a lot of pressure and when Rashid Khan bowls, they are losing and Bangladesh batsmen are getting out. Bangladesh may try to win the third match but I will be in favor of Afghanistan winning the third match as well. Afghanistan's win in the third match means it will be a tough revenge for Afghanistan against Bangladesh.

Bangladesh vs Afghanistan third ODI match Afghanistan captain won the toss and decided to bat first and Afghanistan's opening pair has made good use of this decision. Afghanistan's opening pair Ibrahim Zadran and Rahmanullah Gurbaz are batting quite responsibly. If they can keep wickets like this, then they might give a big target to the opponent Bangladesh. Bangladesh should bowl very aggressively because they have lost two ODI matches very badly against Afghanistan. So if Bangladesh cannot win the third ODI match, then they will be whitewashed against Afghanistan. Bangladesh team has performed very well in the T20 series. They have performed fairly well in both bowling and batting due to which Bangladesh was able to whitewash the opponent Afghanistan. However, Bangladesh's ODI performance is very poor. If the Bangladesh team cannot bat well, then there is a possibility that Bangladesh will be defeated in the third ODI match.  However, Bangladesh should perform the third ODI match very responsibly and win the third ODI match.

In the third ODI between Bangladesh and Afghanistan today, Afghanistan has already won the toss and batted for 16 overs, losing only one wicket for just 99 runs. Today, Bangladesh made several changes to their squad, with Tanjid Hasan, CG Zaker, Mustafizur Rahman, and Tanjim Hasan Shakib all coming off the bench. Later, Mohammad Naeem, Shamim Hossain, Hasan Mahmud, and Nahid Rana were included in their place. However, Bangladesh's bowling has been weaker in today's match compared to other matches, due to which they have not been able to cause a disaster for Afghanistan so far. That is, if Afghanistan can bat well for 50 overs today, then the runs will definitely go close to 300. And it goes without saying that Bangladesh will definitely lose if they score 300 runs.

[Shishir99]

Bangladesh lost both the matches due to their poor batting. So I would say the result of the match will depend on the performance of the Bangladeshi batsmen. In the second match , South africa gave a target of only  191 runs. But Bangladesh's collection was only 109  runs.

If the performance of the batsmen does not improve, Bangladesh will lose the last match as well.

From where did South Africa come in this match? Aren't Bangladesh playing against Afghanistan? Well, you are right that they lost both matches against Afghanistan due to their poor batting lineup. We cannot complain about the bowling lineup, as they have been doing pretty well. But the batters are at their peak when it comes to practicing for the international matches. BTW, the bowlers aren't doing well today.

Afghan batters have already accumulated 150+ in 27 overs by losing one wicket only. I assume they will give a 300+ target for Bangladesh, which is going to be an impossible task for Bangladesh. So, you can bet against Bangladesh pretty easily.

[Bitcoin_people]

In today's match between Sri Lanka and New Zealand women's team, Sri Lanka women's team scored 258 runs after batting in the first innings. The players of Sri Lanka women's team batted well in the opening from the beginning, due to which they scored great runs. Anyway, I think it will be very difficult for Sri Lanka women's team to beat New Zealand women's team because New Zealand team is a bit strong. Moreover, New Zealand women's team's batting performance is also very good, in that case, if New Zealand women's team bats well in the opening, then there will be a chance of victory. And if Sri Lanka women's team's bowling is good, then of course New Zealand team will be under a lot of pressure and Sri Lanka women's team will have a chance to win.

[HistoLock]

Bangladesh vs Afghanistan 3rd ODI match Afghanistan is batting but they have scored 177 runs in 33 overs and lost three wickets already which is a sad thing for the team. However their performance is not so bad that they will lose to Bangladesh even though Bangladesh is weak but they are trying hard to put pressure on Afghanistan in today's match especially Saif Hassan has done a very good bowling performance he has taken two wickets already. But even then Afghanistan is not scared rather they are trying to improve their performance, Afghanistan's Ibrahim Zadran has scored 90 runs in 102 balls if they can continue like this then they will definitely win today.

[fuguebtc]

Afghanistan won the toss and elected to bat. And both their openers played very well. Afghanistan's total was 99 runs from the opening pair.

Ibrahim Zadran played an important innings of 95 runs. Rahmanullah Gurbaz's total was 42 runs. But the next three batsmen Sadiqullah, Hashmatullah and Ikram did not see a responsible innings. As a result, Afghanistan is under some pressure at the moment. But even then, Afghanistan will be able to collect a decent 250+ today.

Afghanistan has collected 196 runs for the loss of 5 wickets in 39 overs. They had won by giving a target of 191 runs in the previous match. If they can somehow collect close to 260 runs in today's match, then the road to victory will not be very difficult for them.

[HelliumZ]

Afghanistan's Ibrahim Zadran has scored 90 runs in 102 balls if they can continue like this then they will definitely win today.

If you could have written your post after 5 more runs, maybe you could have added a few more lines. Ibrahim Zadran was out for 95 in the second match and he was out for that 95 in today's match. Two centuries were missed against Bangladesh in two consecutive matches by 95 runs, meaning Ibrahim Zadran's luck was bad. If he had added five more runs, he would have scored two centuries and added two centuries to his career. Many cricketer may have been out on a nervous ninety-nine and regretted it for the rest of their lives. Ibrahim Zadran's two consecutive dismissals for 95 runs will be a big regret in his life.
