I hope to watch an interesting game.

Re: Afghanistan v Bangladesh at Canberra, Feb 18, 2015

I am supporting Afghanistan.

Re: Afghanistan v Bangladesh at Canberra, Feb 18, 2015

Me to. I believe they are VERY CAPABLE of beating BD (I'd say 4/10 times they will beat BD in ODI)

Re: Afghanistan v Bangladesh at Canberra, Feb 18, 2015

I’ll go with our Afghani brotheren too.. Lets tame some bengali (so-called) tigers :hbk:

Re: Afghanistan v Bangladesh at Canberra, Feb 18, 2015

Re: Afghanistan v Bangladesh at Canberra, Feb 18, 2015

Re: Afghanistan v Bangladesh at Canberra, Feb 18, 2015

Bengalis 47/0 after 14 overs. They are doing pretty much what India did with pak. Keeping the wickets intact while taking their sweet time. Good strategy

Re: Afghanistan v Bangladesh at Canberra, Feb 18, 2015

Beautiful caught behind and first ever wicket for Afghanis in a WC. :k:

Re: Afghanistan v Bangladesh at Canberra, Feb 18, 2015

Re: Afghanistan v Bangladesh at Canberra, Feb 18, 2015

Good. I can see that due to time zone delay in real time.

Re: Afghanistan v Bangladesh at Canberra, Feb 18, 2015

Somehow i’m finding this game as a very interesting contest. What a disciplined performance by Afghanis so far. On a pure batting wicket they hv contained Bengalis well and hv got rid of openers. Great going :k:

Re: Afghanistan v Bangladesh at Canberra, Feb 18, 2015

The Misbah school of tuk tuk claimed another victim. Sarkar, jo khoob bhalo khelte chilaam, was induced into a rash shot due to Moinuddin (spelling?).at the other end working on giving maidens.

Nice tall Afghanistan left handed pacer (name?). Marwais and captain Nabi also bowling well.

Bangladesh may have tuk tuked too much. Openers also are up lots of deliveries.

Re: Afghanistan v Bangladesh at Canberra, Feb 18, 2015

another very good catch by keeper..... please check with him. He might have a Pakistani ID anyway, we can bring him in :)

Re: Afghanistan v Bangladesh at Canberra, Feb 18, 2015

Yes. Good catch. Same lanky lefty bowler. What a waste of space that Mohamadullin (speelling?) Was. Took 46 balls for 23 runs. Built pressure on partners. And got out.

Re: Afghanistan v Bangladesh at Canberra, Feb 18, 2015

Ban 122/4 in 30 overs. At this point i can atleast say that if Bengalis dont reach 250 in 50 overs, they'll be in real trouble.

Re: Afghanistan v Bangladesh at Canberra, Feb 18, 2015

Shapur bowling well. Leg spinner 1st over was fantatmstic. The first ball was picture perfect - flighted and turned. Wow. Got warned the Steve the a india killer Davis for following thru onto pitch.

Shakir showing good intent.
