Afghanistan (115/5) defeat Bangladesh (105) by 8 runs (DLS) in a nail-biting contest to qualify for the Semi-Final of the ICC T20 World Cup 2024

[Nikhil_cric]

30 balls 65 is possible , go बांग्ला

That's beyond them , mate . They are just winning it for Australia.

 

[Devadwal]

Gone

 

[Ahmed216]

Afghan have a chance because BD think they too have a chance

 

[jnaveen1980]

They need 2 more wickets

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Hridoy gone.

 

[Buffet]

Yes, play shots in every ball and if you get bowled out then so be it.

 

[Visaal-E-Yaar]

Hridoy is one of the better Bangladesh batters I've seen come through in recent years. Definitely has some potential, especially in shorter formats.

Jinx successful.

 

[Devadwal]

Unbelievable From Bangladesh Such Loser Mindset !

They Are Here Making Sure AFG Don’t Qualify !

 

[jnaveen1980]

Afghan have a chance because BD think they too have a chance

What do they got to lose. ANy team should take this approach.

 

[globetrotter]

Out… 5th wicket down…. Aussies started packing their bags

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Yes, play shots in every ball and if you get bowled out then so be it.

Yes, SA really don't want another semifinal against the Aussies.

 

[Devadwal]

Rashid at least Bowl on Wickets

 

[Mas-LFC]

nabis first over in the last over of pp had to be gone for 14+ runs. They only got 3.

 

[jnaveen1980]

3 overs 43 required.. Game on

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

Jinx successful.

Guess I should say something good about Liton now

 

[Devadwal]

Liton is our brother. Playing fearless cricket.

 

[cricketmania22]

Bang are losing because they are trying to win it under 12.2 overs. It’s commendable but it’s a very stiff task. Unfortunately, neither they are going to qualify nor they are going to win.

 

[Devadwal]

3 over 43 runs yet this old man playing tuk tuk

 

[Nikhil_cric]

At least Litton is trying to get BD to semis. Mahmudullah is not even trying, lol.

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

Same happened in 2023 world cup. Now they will not let down this apportunity and will win the trophy .

Australia vs South Africa - Easy win for Australia

India vs England - can go either way

Final - Australia vs Anyone ,winner will be Australia .

I would say India will be favorites against England in spin-friendly Guyana

 

[JaDed]

39 16

 

[Ahmed216]

Did not watch the first innings but rain seems to have made batting easier

 

[Croma]

I would say India will be favorites against England in spin-friendly Guyana

Will you continue with Dube? I think they will if it is a spin friendly pitch

 

[Devadwal]

I would say India will be favorites against England in spin-friendly Guyana

Rain will predicted so spinner's will not much effective after rain breaks

 

[Nikhil_cric]

New batsmen, that too Mahmudullah, playing such shots on this pitch ? Afghans have been screwed by the rain

 

[JaDed]

Mahmadullah Shakib useless both are

 

[Croma]

Did not watch the first innings but rain seems to have made batting easier

Even then Bangladesh are huffing and puffing

 

[jnaveen1980]

Did not watch the first innings but rain seems to have made batting easier

If it were dry pitch BD would have struggled a lot more. Ball is not turning much now.

 

[rhony]

BD is going for the win. Not for the SF spot. Think it's a good strategy after Hridoy got out. He was the trump.card for them

 

[BouncerGuy]

Still BD's game to win.

 

[Mas-LFC]

Wth is mahmudullah doing?

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

It's times like these where you question the brainpower of the match officials and the "rules." Do we really need a drinks break with rain on the horizon and the fact that we have already had multiple breaks because of rain?

 

[Mockingbird]

Cricket has such idiotic rules. Why drink break now when rain is on the horizon?

 

[jnaveen1980]

130 probably would have been defendable. 115 is little less given that there was rain.

 

[pillionrider]

A game and situation like this deserves Ian Smith. Thank the cricketing gods he exists.

 

[Buffet]

BD is not going for it. They just want a win.

 

[jnaveen1980]

It's times like these where you question the brainpower of the match officials and the "rules." Do we really need a drinks break with rain on the horizon and the fact that we have already had multiple breaks because of rain?

ya. they had ample time for commercials during break.

 

[Devadwal]

Did not watch the first innings but rain seems to have made batting easier

Rain make things easier for Bangladeshi yet losser can't Play aggressive cricket.

They needed 43 runs in 3 overs to qualified for semi.

 

[Visaal-E-Yaar]

Mahmadullah Shakib useless both are

send them to cayman islands forever.

 

[JaDed]

Wth is mahmudullah doing?

What he has done his entire career insane how he is still in the team

 

[rhony]

Well dream SF lineup for all fans. IND VS Eng and Aus vs SA.

 

[Mockingbird]

BD is not going for it. They just want a win.

Complete idiots.

 

[JattMaula]

BD is going for the win. Not for the SF spot. Think it's a good strategy after Hridoy got out. He was the trump.card for them

No. That is idiotic strategy. What use is a meaningless win if you don't try your best for glory.

 

[Protea Fan]

with that over mahmudullah made sure that ausis are qualifying

 

[Mas-LFC]

last over of the pp will cost BD. That needed a big over.

What he has done his entire career insane how he is still in the team

For BD standard he is fine but this situation requires him to hit. They should’ve sent Rishad who can hit spinners

 

[Croma]

@mominsaigol Hope you are watching

 

[cricketmania22]

I would say India will be favorites against England in spin-friendly Guyana

I think England play spin better now. Moeen Ali and Adil Rashid have decreased their spin woes.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Simon Doull is preplexed lol

 

[JaDed]

BD just going for win, lol

 

[rhony]

No. That is idiotic strategy. What use is a meaningless win if you don't try your best for glory.

It's tough to hit. Better a win than losing the game. It's a defensive mindset but atleast they aren't losing to Afg

 

[BouncerGuy]

I think BD did not know that they have a shot at semi final qualification. Poor stuff from them.

 

[Devadwal]

with that over mahmudullah made sure that ausis are qualifying

Now South Africa need to win the match against Australia.

India did everyone a favour to smashed Australia but these losers cant take the apportunity .

 

[Visaal-E-Yaar]

BD right now
Hum tu doobe hain sanam tumhe bhi lay kar doobay gye

 

[jnaveen1980]

SImon Doull is giving it to BD. They can try and still win if not possible.

 

[RexRex]

Pathetic Bangladeshis ..

 

[Protea Fan]

Such losers bangladesh are,midget attitude

 

[JattMaula]

This boggles my mind.


Mentality is busted.


This will unmake a generation of cricketers in Bangladesh.

 

[Buffet]

BD is going for the win. Not for the SF spot. Think it's a good strategy after Hridoy got out. He was the trump.card for them

What? Nothing good about not trying for semis. Win or loss is meanigless here.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Oh it iis out.

 

[followed]

Hahahah the meltdown of Indian fans here. Hahahah. LOL.
Go easy Bangladesh. LOL.

 

[rhony]

What? Nothing good about not trying for semis. Win or loss is meanigless here.

They tried. I think once Hridoy got out, they realized they can't win in 12 overs.

 

[Devadwal]

Gone

 

[JattMaula]

It's tough to hit. Better a win than losing the game. It's a defensive mindset but atleast they aren't losing to Afg

It's not better to win than lose if you forgo all pretense of being interested in being a real cricket team who wants to win a world cup.

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

Will you continue with Dube? I think they will if it is a spin friendly pitch

Nope. I would go with Jaiswal regardless of the pitch conditions. India has played in spin-friendly conditions in this tournament before and Dube has not really delivered the way he was expected to. But given India's largely predictable selection I'm sure they will retain him.

 

[Visaal-E-Yaar]

Ohhhhh twist

 

[pillionrider]

If the crab mentality of BD is rewarded with a losss today, it would be amazing hahahaha

 

[rhony]

This kid can tank a few. He should have been sent ahead of Mahmudullah

 

[Buffet]

Such losers bangladesh are,midget attitude

+1

Not sure about the thnking here.

 

[followed]

Indians can breathe easy now. LOL.
Bangladesh ain't winning from here. Hahah

 

[Mas-LFC]

Mahmudullah completely destroyed the chase the buddha test cameo comes to an end

 

[jnaveen1980]

7 down

 

[rhony]

Damn...Rashid Khan a champion!!

 

[Protea Fan]

I hope i wont see mahmudullah never again in international cricket

 

[Nikhil_cric]

So good to see that sore loser Rishad bowled like that. Beautiful

 

[Devadwal]

Another one.

 

[big_gamer007]

Come on!!!!!!

 

[Visaal-E-Yaar]

Lol BD

 

[Devadwal]

These losser deserve to lost .

 

[Mas-LFC]

Afghanistan got this. Only Dot King Liton das in the way.

 

[BouncerGuy]

Brilliant from Rashid. Champion bowler.
