Asia Cup

[alfy!]

Bangla's into the final, great stuff.

 

[Hue_Jars]

Well done Tigers!!!! Great to see them competitive.

Tell ya what but, I love seeing India miss out on finals.......arrogant pri**

 

[Carbine Chaos]

Bangladesh are winning this, hope they maintains this level in the final. It would be great to see them winning the cup, will be a huge confidence booster.

A huge confidence booster like the win against us in England years ago?

Even if they win it's more than likely another false dawn. Prove me wrong, Bangladesh!

 

[Tassieboy]

As soon as i give up on 'em that start winning...

congratulations on your appointment as spec mod

Of course would love to win the whole thing by beating Pak again. But even if we don't make it to the final, we go out on a high, but in Australia everyone desperately wanted to be in the final after such a disastrous tour and thought we would have a good momentum going into the final after that epic chase. Similarly for the Pakistanis they won't feel satisfied even after winning the cup against Bangla as the main match was lost.

Evdo,

You can lie to the caucus and you can lie to the press, but never ever ever lie to yourself.

India are out of the tournament because, when it really counted, they couldnt beat Bangladesh.

Tendulkar did what he could, but the performance from the rest of the team was weak, gutless and a reminder of what will happen once the greatest middle order in fifty years or more retires.

My Tigers beat All India fair and square, and I'd love to play you again in the tournament, but we get to play Pakistan for all the marbles, and your team is trying to find an early plane.

Kinda like the World Cup in the Caribbean, really, and Im confident India will respond in the same way - by organising a new Asia Cup, consisiting of India, India and India, because thats the only way alleged fans like you will be guaranteed to watch it all.

Nasir Hossain is quickly becoming one of my favourite cricketers ever. Great to see Bangladesh starting to perform AT HOME and keeping their dedicated fans happy.

The rewards are finally coming thru from the infrastructure work.
Nasir Hossain's an example - 20 years old, and 28 first class games (batting average 33, bowling average 31).

That means when he gets to international cricket, he's ready for it.

This is awesome.

TASTE India.

Pakistan 236 at the end of their 50 overs for the loss of nine wickets.

That shouldnt be enough, but its Pakistan

 

[james brayshaw]

please win Bangladesh

 

[DrVanNostrand]

Solid start for Bangladesh. 0/32 from 8. Please, please win. Interesting that Ajmal hasn't had any impact in this tournement at all.

 

[Cooldude]

Hope the Deshis win, but you always have lingering doubts of match fixing when these sorta things happen

Cooldud,

F.ck you, and f.ck the horse you came into town on. There have been several approaches to Tanim and Shakib and *every* *damn* *one* of them was reported to the authorities.

If you want to talk about match fixing, explain to me why you barracked for a teams with Mark Waugh and Shane Warne in it, after they admitted taking money from gamblers.

Chill dude, no need to explode here.

Btw, you only mentioned Bangladesh players, there's another team apart from yours playing that has a history of this stuff, ya know. Just saying. Would that make you angrier?

Because, sh.thead, the fact that Bangladesh are playing in this game is the result of a hard fought loss against Pakistan, then a win over India, then a win over Sri Lanka.

So when gutless little pissants like you come in and start whispering 'fix', it makes all that worthless, and gives people like you an excuse for why they should ignore every team that doesnt come from a rich country with a healthy tv contract.

The examples you gave in the 1st paragraph doesn't actually kill the possibilities of matchfixing in those results, in fact you're strengthening my argument. You guys are the least likely to make the finals, if you get a helping hand along the way there would be money to be had

Oh and I haven't exactly done what you said in the 2nd paragraph either

Btw, I'm absolutely loving the way you're blowing your head off. I'm just gonna keep responding just to see you keep exploding.

Tell us what you really think.

Don't hold back.

 

[Pera]

Need around 10 an over from here with 6 wickets in hand. Very much a chance with Mushfiqur coming in now.

 

[evdo1706]

19 off 15, come on don't throw this away now

 

[evdo1706]

Ajmal has bowled out his quota, probably Cheema will bowl the last over, real chance for BD.

 

[evdo1706]

9 needed from the last over, this feels like SL in 1996.

 

[Pera]

SHIT! 4 from the last ball with #10 on strike. Cmon Banga's!

 

[evdo1706]

Pakistan win by 2 runs, but Bangladesh will go out as the champions from this tournament. Hope they can manage to keep up this level in the future.
