Group A (Pakistan, Bangladesh, Australia) - 11th Match Australia v Bangladesh

Don't Bangladesh still need to knock this off at a decent pace to get through themselves? Let alone trying to knock out Australia too.
 
I guess what goes around comes around? Last Champions Trophy when Pak needed to win so India could qualify Afridi was dropping dollies. Now he's the Captain and if BD win today, his team will be knocked out. Its too early but I hope this happens.


Karma's a ****.
 
How Bangladesh can qualify for Super 8s (They just need to chase the target within 19.2 overs)

2) Bangladesh Bat Second: The first assumption is that Australia are either bowled out or bat their full 20 overs. The second assumption is that Bangladesh win by a margin of one run, i.e. they just get over Australia’s score rather than hit a six and win by six or five or less runs. In this case Bangladesh have to chase down whatever Australia score in 113-116 balls (18.5 to 19.2) depending on what Australia score (I’ve taken realistic ranges from Australia scoring 90 to 250), to get a higher net run rate than Pakistan. For these same ranges in scores, Bangladesh would have to achieve their target in roughly 7.3 to 11.2 overs (varying from 90 to 200) to push Australia’s nrr below Pakistan, which is much riskier for them and unlikely to happen.

Agree and you can't have your captain playing that sort of knock.

Oh dear White clean bowled now, we are so reliant on the openers it not funny.

Yea & that really shouldn't be the case. The middle-order is very good. Shaun Marsh has got to replace Clarke in the T20 team & Watson will have to bat @ 3.

lol such hate... Pakistan always drop dollies.... they can't catch even if their lives depended on it
 
The class of Hussey is finally showing in a T20, thank God we kept him. Smith been better than the senior men so far.

aussie1st added 2 Minutes and 16 Seconds later...

Well if they bat out thier overs and get 120, 125 who knows. Still nice position to see Australia in at the hands of Bangladesh

The hopes of two nations rest on our shoulders :p

For a while there I was reading and thought you could replaced Duckworth-Lewis, until I saw you had a "source" :D
