Come on Aus. cant bring myself to support BD anymore.

Re: World T20, 22nd Match, Super 10 Group 2: Australia v Bangladesh at Bangalore, Mar

Without their three leading players I dont think BD has much of a chance.

Re: World T20, 22nd Match, Super 10 Group 2: Australia v Bangladesh at Bangalore, Mar

I'm sure it didnt hv with those three as well. Unless its being played in BD.
This wicket has a lot of bounce

Re: World T20, 22nd Match, Super 10 Group 2: Australia v Bangladesh at Bangalore, Mar

I have heard Bangladeshis speak volumes about Shabbir so much - I checked todays match to see what the deal is about - he is hoickster and no more....just wants to smack every ball.

Re: World T20, 22nd Match, Super 10 Group 2: Australia v Bangladesh at Bangalore, Mar

No I think he is a better batsman after Tamim. BD still has a good start here. 61/2 after 9 overs isnt bad at all.

Re: World T20, 22nd Match, Super 10 Group 2: Australia v Bangladesh at Bangalore, Mar

So far BD has proved that they need to play qualifying round before entering any ICC tournament...

a boring match... Afghans played better against SA yesterday

Re: World T20, 22nd Match, Super 10 Group 2: Australia v Bangladesh at Bangalore, Mar

they are just 112/5 after 17 overs... speaks volume

Re: World T20, 22nd Match, Super 10 Group 2: Australia v Bangladesh at Bangalore, Mar

That is still better than what our donkeys did.

Re: World T20, 22nd Match, Super 10 Group 2: Australia v Bangladesh at Bangalore, Mar

our donkey are known donkeys, everyone knows that and we don't pose them as lions or tigers... these Bengalies they consider their team invincible.... just see what they posted before the final of Asia Cup and see how their PM reacts... yeah with all that around and their team is still no considered a worthwhile opponent.. meaning, you loose against them, the whole team and selection committee can be sacked (not talking about Pakistan here...) winning against them means nothing ( again not talking about Pakistan

Re: World T20, 22nd Match, Super 10 Group 2: Australia v Bangladesh at Bangalore, Mar

they amped up great in the past two overs - score is 145/5 at the end of 19 - last over in progress...

Re: World T20, 22nd Match, Super 10 Group 2: Australia v Bangladesh at Bangalore, Mar

156/5 in 20 overs isnt a bad score at all. I'm very impressed with Mahmudullah, he scored 49 of 29 balls. This guy can hit.

On the other side, I think Australia has an ordinary bowling. This guy Zampa took 3 wickets but he was hit hard by NZ the other day and he is like a 2-paisa bowler.

Re: World T20, 22nd Match, Super 10 Group 2: Australia v Bangladesh at Bangalore, Mar

Actually looking at Australian Bowling today, i have hope against hopes that we can actually beat them..

Re: World T20, 22nd Match, Super 10 Group 2: Australia v Bangladesh at Bangalore, Mar

impressive batting by BD towards the end. With three overs remaining, I thought they might not get more than 135

Re: World T20, 22nd Match, Super 10 Group 2: Australia v Bangladesh at Bangalore, Mar

Undhay koh undherrey mein bauhat dur kee sooji. :rotfl:

Re: World T20, 22nd Match, Super 10 Group 2: Australia v Bangladesh at Bangalore, Mar

Khwaja is slicing down BD's short-handed bowling. I wish Commentators call him with his first name :)

Re: World T20, 22nd Match, Super 10 Group 2: Australia v Bangladesh at Bangalore, Mar

Yar khawaja k tarlay minnatain kr lo pakistan aa jaye:p

Re: World T20, 22nd Match, Super 10 Group 2: Australia v Bangladesh at Bangalore, Mar

Khawaja 53* :k: :smiley:

Re: World T20, 22nd Match, Super 10 Group 2: Australia v Bangladesh at Bangalore, Mar

Iam thinking same...

khawajah
Imram Tahir
Moeen Ali

All need to be in Pak team..

Re: World T20, 22nd Match, Super 10 Group 2: Australia v Bangladesh at Bangalore, Mar

Very funny :frowning:

Now looking at their batting.. Sami the new love of Afridi alone can give them 70 - 80 runs…so all hopes are lost
