2023 ICC Men's Cricket World Cup Game 3 Bangladesh v Afghanistan 7/10 1530hrs @ HPCA Stadium

[NYRB]

1st slip would have gobbled a 9th wicket for Bangladesh.

The Afghans just need to try and bat out as much of the remaining overs as possible and get to 200, that would at least give them a chance.

FIGJAM Stoinis is set to middle Australia's World Cup opener against India to give him more time to recover from a hamstring injury.

The Afghans could do with Stoinis right now but I'm not sure how he is relevant to this thread.

 

[NYRB]

You have to agree with Hayden, 'why no 1st slip?'

 

[NYRB]

Shoriful gets his 1st wicket and look at what that means to him. Afghanistan are crumbling in Dharmasala. They are 8 down.

 

[NYRB]

Bangladesh wouldn't mind a little Net Run Rate booster today.

 

[NYRB]

Afghanistan bowled out for 156

Criminal to not bat out your full 50.

 

[Plugger35]

Afghanistan all out for 156, that was a woeful batting performance from them, just collapsed in a heap at the end there.

Gurbaz the only one that could still hold his head high.

 

[NYRB]

Trying to understand what Mehidy is saying at the change of innings........ I don't think I understood any of that.

 

[Cleavy]

should be a handy NRR boost for Bangladesh

 

[Plugger35]

This should be a walk in the park for Bangladesh, I've switched over to watch South Africa v Sri Lanka, hopefully that will be a better contest.

 

[Santana]

Afghans got a bit of a losing streak going now. This will be their 13th loss in a row at the WC. Is this a record? (Edit: no, the record is 18)
