2015 World Cup Result | New Zealand fight to win by 3 wickets against Bangladesh

Good job by BD here. Now if BD can get 2-3 quick wickets then it will be very interesting.
 
I am eagerly waiting for mother of all KO matches i mean Ind vs SL in QF that is going to be epic :)) but for that to happen NZ batting need to fail today.......
 
Scott Styris to Nz=Sanjay manjrekar to India.
Always over-selling their teams.
 
128* great innings by riyad

India will eat Lanka for dinner on the flat sydney phatta wicket. They play Malinga well and rest of the Lankan bowlers are just average. However, if BD score close to 300 and if India has to chase that under lights in Melbourne, it will be a 50-50 game
 
Now , no one should complain about BD making it to QF. They have played some good cricket.
 
Come on Bangladesh, win this one. Looking forward to Pak vs Bangladesh QF!

Weather forecast for Aus vs Sco:
40th Match, Pool A - Australia v Scotland
Bellerive Oval, Hobart
LIVE D/N PM Showers/Wind 8 - 22° C

hopefully washout, if not, maybe a rare upset for Scotland in a highly shortened game :)
 
Macca will chase this target within 30 overs, the ground is small and Kiwis are favorites to win the world cup

and almost all Lankan batsmen are clicking so i will give Lanka 60-40 in batting but 70-30 in favor of India when it comes to bowling. The team batting first will have the advantage but than again we need first NZ to fail here otherwise that QF is not happening
 
Don't see us being second although to be fair I would prefer Pakistan over the chokers because we know your strengths and weakness.
 
lol.... pak fans going so low? you want to run away from stronger opposition?

They wont stop complaining. They will claim how Afghanistan are far superior given they too score nearly as much runs as us against English (say for example 160runs) and then also will request that honk kong replaces us in the test arena because they beat us in a dead rubber t20 match
 
Its easy to chase 350 here. The ball skids at night under the lights and the Indians just chased 260 in 37 overs against Ireland.

Different match and different bowling attack.

There is still second innings left. and more importantly it's still to be seen how Bangladesh plays in QF. Of course pressure is a lotess on them now but they become a rollover in quarters no one will take their WC performance seriously. They need a good QF for their cricket.
 
nah lets face Aussies if we are here to win the Cup we have to meet the best somewhere later so why not in QF
 
you call it running away, we call it strategy :najam

it is like gladiator wars. put 10 gladiator inside the ring and fight till death. you can fight or hide in a corner and watch other warriors fight and die.... and boom! you are one of the last two....

you may win.... but people will always question your ability and will call you "coward".

I think that's coming from folks who don't understand cricket. I am very impressed with maturity of some of your batsmen.

I will say that BD is surely making progress. Just need to get domestic infrastructure for longer format in place because you can't learn that format without playing it for decades.
 
NZ's form was too good to be real.
Finally it took Bangladesh to expose their weakness in bowling.
 
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.
Come on aussie, we are ready for you.
i want to face aussie,
want that may our Demolish the tag of mighty on aussie, as they did against africa
 
NZ should still chase this, against an in between attack and poor fielding side. Especially with only two fast bowlers
However I'm more interested in their approach, will they starter over the line like they did against Australia? Or will they simply walk it and finish with 10 overs to spare?
Let's wait and see... We have a contest in our hands

(no dropped catches Bangladesh PLEASE!)

Irrespective of what they do from here, I think they have done enough to not hear complain. Honestly speaking, they have played better cricket than some bigger teams in this WC so far. Sure, I don't expect them to do it all the time but I don't think that anyone should complain them getting to QF.

Even though ti was against minnows, they chased 300+ and then defended 275 against non-minnow to get to QF. And now made 288 against NZ. If this shouldn't be taken seriously then you are expecting a bit too much from a minnow who made it to QF.

The thing is its not about our development. A lot of people simply don't enjoy our success. Some of them being BDeshi themselves. And in PP bashing Bangladesh is bread and butter.
 
its just a preference, gotta beat Aus anyway to win the cup, why do that in QF, it would be more fun do it in the final at MCG :yk2
