mehkar said:* nice start bangla
* ohhhhhhh 2 lost bangladesh.......but they are still in good position
* we want wickets
* freedie and Kp are looking in good form.........Hope they will stay at crease till 40 overs
Zorax said:* WHOOOOO! C'mon Bangla!
* 400!WHOOOO!!
* C'mon Bangla!! Mortaza and Rafique need to do well, and if Manjural Islam
* Rana, Shadat Hossain and Rajin Saleh can keep it below run-a-ball, Bangla will WIN!!!
Bangladesh ZINDABAD!
This was what I was fearing. Bangla need to keep it full and swinging in the first 7, then pepper them with bouncers and the odd yorker. Should be 2 yorkers per over anyways.
Then, after 7 overs a piece from Mashrafe and Hossain, bringon the tweakers. Keep swapping them around, different angles and ends, make the batsmen work. Cut off the singles, have the spinners vary the pace, make them look for the big hits. Also, keep shining the ball.
Then bring back a seamer alongside the spinners towards the death. The ball should reverse swing now, so keep it full and straight.
Most importantly, they need to be energetic in the field and should hold onto every chance.
Then, I think they can win fairly comfortably
* Excellent yorker, but now let the spinners do their job. Mortaza and Hossain are offering length deliveries, it should be chest high or a yorker...
* It should be Rafique, Saleh and Manjural Islam Rana!!!
Ok, now he needs to keep mixing it up. Swap ends, short spells, different angles, vary the pace and flight. Keep the singles to a minimum, and tempt them to hit over the top.
* Whooo!
Game, set and match folks. One more of these two, and it's all over. And there is plenty of spin to come.
201 runs needed, at 7.18 per over.
C'mon Bangla!!
* C'mon Bangla!! Don't lose your cool. C'mon, we can win this. Keep GoJo on strike, field tightly, and very length and fligh. Nice to see all four spin options used. Maybe it might work to keep the seamers off, make them put pace on the ball. But then again, Hossain and Mortaza can deliver lethal yorkers. KP is the key man, we just need him out...
* Excellent yorker Mashrafe.
Did you know he just got married?
Bangla should win this. Saleh doing well here, just what the situation requires.
4 singles, means KP is on strike. He won't be looking for ones with Hoggy at the other end, so set a defensive field, plenty in the deep. Get him holing out. If he does pick up a single, prevent Hoggy from stealing one. Might be a good idea to have a slip in place for both of them...
C'MON Bangla!!
* No Bashar!! NOOOO!! How could you!! That's torn it, 15 off the voer and KP is still on strike!
C'mon Bangla, need to do better than this. Just a ight over or so and the pressure is back on!
* ATTA BOYS!!
C'mon!!!
* Brillaint Mashrafe, great change of pace!
Fantastic Hossain, excellent fielding, just what we needed!
Jeetayga Bhai Jeetayga, BANGLADESH Jeetayga!!
Nice stuff from KP though. But he is out
* WHOOOOO!
Go BANGLA!
Aftab wasn't suited to this pitch, Rafique and Manjural should have bowled more. But we won, so I'm happy nonetheless
plympilgrim said:* oh deary me england are playin rubish, but this is a batters track
* oh deary me england look like there are heading out, come on england
* come on freddie, blast though bangladeshi's out of the trophy and we march to the final
* oh look who's at the crease expect some fireworks and the runs coming like rain from the sky, once it starts it doesn't stop for ages...
* england are getting behind the run rate, but with KP and Freddie in they are still in the game
* plz don't lose england
* come on KP, save England.....
Trev said:* Bangla really ripping into England.
* We might need a very big score here unless England are careful!
gamerkid22 said:* Bangla playing well
* England has classy players than Bangla ....and Flintoff will bowl them to restrict them below 300 and u know total near 300 is chasable on such wickets
* Pietersen is the key now also England are not that bad that they will lose to Bangladesh
* My favourite team got eliminated now all hopes on India to win this tournament.
Jaztheman said:* nice to see bangla doing well for a change, against england
* Yeah bangla will win the match and if they do will gfo far in the tourno, unless they get out in the first rounf or second....
* just over 8 an over is good but an early wicket but flintoff is batting well but come on Bangla
* come on spinners get some wickets
Brett_Lee said:* Bangladesh batted superbly especially against a side like England.
* Might be hard target for england, lets see how the bowlers go for Bangladesh
MWaugh said:* amazing that bangladesh scored at over six an over while mahmood only went for 2.8 an over. pity he could only bowl 10
* if pieterson continues to stay at the crease then england should win this.
* thats gotta be tough on KP to make 155 in a losing side. awesome match though
jacobfelix said:* Also notice there are 6 maiden overs in that...so if the match goes down the wire & England win in a thriller then those maidens will be a crucial factor....
* Go get 'em Mortaza
* Come on Mortaza....Knock the Middle Stump of Freddie as well...C'mon, you can do it...
* When the England innings was about to start, I had said - Go get 'em Mortaza.....and it was he who got 'em ...
* I am going to celebrate this victory by going to the nearest pub and gulping down 5 glasses of ...ah....er....Orange Juice
Leftie said:* England will lose anyway so bad light won't matter
* Nice to see England beaten by Bangladesh. Hopefully Bangladesh can continue this form.
!x!culli!x! said:* Good start from England, hope to see them win this one
* It's surely impossible now for England to win, their one day poor form continues.
* Oh fishsticks! England suffer great embarrassment in this game.
Oh the shame!
iceman_waugh said:* This is too good.What if Bangla wins the Champions Trophy ?
* Chennai curator must have done an excellent job with the pitch here.
* Any one of them will have to stay throughout the innings to ensure that they don't run into still waters.
aussie1st said:* Thats a quickfire start by the English, shame about the wicket but interesting move sending Freddy up at 3.
* This is the key partnership for the English these two stay there and this game will be over.
* What a performance by Bangladesh they deserved to win after making such a big first inns total.
Kuttakumar said:
* Bangla needs another wicket.
* If KP fires in the last 10, England can still win this one
GrayNicolls said:* Come on Bangladeshis. Pull off n amazing win
* The Banglas need to slow the run rate down. Good to see Tresco go, but Bangla need to slow this game down.
rabeta said:* I think England will sneak home as I cannot see Pietersen getting out after all the luck he has had!
m_vaughan said:* So close but yet so far. Probably the biggest upset in the history of English cricket. (Even though its in the game)
* Congratulations to Bangladesh though for first setting a massive target and then picking up wickets regularly.
borncricketer said:* well done by the bangladeshi's to eliminate the English, a huge upset in the tournament already...just shows how intersting the tournament will shape up to be....
Saurabh said:* I can't believe, Bangladesh has produce an upset in the Champions Trophy.
But it is nice to see they won over England other then Zim.
