2023 ICC Men's Cricket World Cup Game 28 Netherlands v Bangladesh 28/10 1900hrs @ Eden Gardens

[NYRB]

Convincing from the Dutch.


Netherlands win by 87 runs.

The Dutch win, and England hold up the ladder. You love to see it.

 

[NYRB]

Do England get priority picks if they finish last?



England are a real chance now of winning the Wooden Spoon.

Put some respect in the Netherlands name.

Pretty bad tournament for Bangladesh, considering the promising previous results that lead to them to top 8 in the ODI rankings and being able to skip the qualifying tournament.

Well CA only want to play India and England and happy to screw the rest.

CA is part of the problem it doesn't grow the game and help. How can these countries get better if they don't play the best.

How many times have we played the Kiwis in ODIs in past 15 years not many. So it's not just associates it's all round

How many times have we played the Kiwis in ODIs in past 15 years not many.

30 times, only 3 other teams have played them more.

If we played more ODI's we would have to put out a lot more weaker XI lineups to not overplay our best players which would then led to whinging on why are we playing so many pointless ODI's. Can't really win

The game is struggling here right now. It's CA's job to focus on that. It's ICC's game to focus on growing the game.

Why would we need to help grow the game in NZ anyways? Aren't they already better than us? Well that's what I keep hearing all the time

Hard to believe that Bangladesh qualified automatically for this tournament, they have gone backwards lately, they even lost to England.

They qualified automatically because they deserved too. Having a bad tournament doesn't negate that. They play a lot of ODI's and regularly beat the teams they should (plus they won a series in South Africa last year).

Who should have qualified over them?
